Application of the Core Conflictual Relationship Theme Method

26 July, 2021
Application of the Core Conflictual Relationship Theme Method

A new video program of prof. Orya Tishby and Prof. Hadas Wiseman (Haifa University) demonstrate the application of the core conflictual relationship theme method (CCRT). The CCRT method serves to identify the internal representations of clients' relationships with early caregivers and guides the therapy in the process of exploring the client’s subjective experiences in current relationships, including the relationship with the therapist.

A dynamic CCRT focus of therapy is formulated and used within supportive–expressive therapy to help the client gain awareness of recurring relationship dynamics, or the client’s core conflict. The CCRT model is both a clinical formulation firmly rooted in clinical experience and close observation, as well as a theory-driven method rooted in Freudian psychodynamic theory.

During the demonstration session, Drs. Orya Tishby and Hadas Wiseman examine and review the CCRT method from a structured interview—the relationship anecdotes paradigm, or RAP interview, and discuss various interventions demonstrated with a young woman who is coming into therapy to work on interpersonal relationship issues in her life.

This session features a client portrayed by an actor on the basis of a composite of different case.
