in your own practice or in another setting.

6. Case Study

A Case Study (between 5,000 and 6,000 words) will have to be submitted and passed as part of the final portfolio. This will cover the work with one of the two training patients (Two copies of the case study must be submitted to the Programme Administrator). Candidates should allow 6 weeks for the Case Study to be marked. The Case Study will be an accurate representation of the work carried out and will be clearly structured in accordance with the criteria in Appendix 7. Case Studies are marked anonymously by a pool of markers. This will be an assessment independent of the training supervisor. A pass mark must be achieved in order to be granted the twice weekly licence.

6

All supervisors are required to self-certify as to the last three criteria for supervisors as set out in Appendix 5. NB: Supervisory hours undertaken before L2 programme registration and before confirmation that your proposed supervisor has been approved cannot be used for the purposes of fulfilling the L2 programme, requirements for supervised clinical work. Please note that for any reason a candidate registered on the programme has to change supervisors, he or she should write formally to the Programme manager giving the reasons for the change and requesting approval for a new supervisor. A report from previous and new supervisors will be required as part of the final portfolio. The criteria for supervisors are in Appendix 5.

A first year Interim Supervisors report and a final Report will also have to be submitted as part of the portfolio. These reports will require the recommendation and agreement of the supervisor that the twice weekly licence be granted.

8. Theoretical Seminars

From October 2015, the theoretical Seminars will be an optional part of the programme. While the Licence to practise twice weekly will be granted without the requirement of attending the theoretical seminars, candidates holding the WPF Post Graduate Certificate in Psychodynamic Theory and Practice may opt to take part in the seminars if they wish to do so. N.B. External Candidates, however, who have APELed onto the PDPL2 are obliged to attend the theoretical seminars for three terms as one of the requirements to complete for the twice weekly licence to be granted. Theoretical seminars last for one academic year divided into three 10 -week terms. They will usually take place on Thursday afternoons. Some or all of these seminars may be shared with trainees on the Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy course. This will depend on numbers. A list of topics reading lists and papers will be sent to candidates who have decided to complete either one, two, or three terms of seminars. The seminars are paid for in addition to the annual registration fee for PDPL2. Trainees registered on the PDPL2 in their final year of the postgraduate diploma will only do the L2 clinical work until they qualify in once weekly Psychotherapy or equivalent. 80% attendance is required at each term of weekly seminars. Proof of attendance will need to be included in the final portfolio submission.

9. Client Assessment

Each candidate must conduct five assessments of clients and each assessment must be supervised by a supervisor approved by the Programme Manager. If you are using the WPF’ Therapy Clinical Services the following Guidelines should be followed:

a. You must first contact Caroline Shuttleworth, WPF Therapy Clinical Placement manager, to obtain a copy of the Guidelines and Policies of the Counselling Service.

b. Each assessment must be individually supervised by a WPF Therapy approved Assessment Supervisor. Candidates should select from the following list of Assessment Supervisors for Psychotherapy Trainees. Outside supervisors are not acceptable for this part of the portfolio requirement.

c. The assessment should be written up according to WPF Therapy ‘house’ procedures. d. You will see the assessment supervisor in their consulting room and pay their fee to

them directly. If your clients are not from WPF Therapy clinical services, you may submit the name of an assessment supervisor who will have to be approved by the Programme Manager. Supervisors who supervise the assessments have to fulfil certain criteria with regard to training and experience of conducting assessments. A satisfactory report from the supervisor for each assessment carried out for this

Programme must be submitted as part of the Portfolio. A Pro-forma for the submission of

This Post Graduate diploma to a qualification as a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist licensed to practise once weekly. The qualification also results in eligibility to register with the BPC. However, some trainees wish to gain further experience in working more intensively at a frequency of twice weekly and so the PDP L2 programme was devised to be an additional one to two years after completion of the Post Graduate Diploma. The programme for the twice weekly licence consists of a further three terms of theoretical seminars, and around two years of individual twice weekly clinical work- the requirement for each candidate on the programme is to see one twice weekly patient for a minimum of 18 months and a second twice weekly patient for a minimum of 12 months.

The Structure of the initial course leading to the WPF Therapy Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Theory and Practice. The Postgraduate Diploma/MA in Psychodynamic Theory and Practice can be completed in four years. The Postgraduate Diploma/MA has both academic and clinical components and trainees usually begin working with WPF Therapy Clinic patients towards the end of their first year on the course. Most trainees beginning the course have also completed an introductory course in counselling skills and have also been encouraged to gain some experience in a voluntary agency before commencing training. The modes of training are as follows: Mode M is built on the same seminar and supervision structure but spread over four years, one day a week, running from 9.15 am to 5.45pm. Trainees are expected to build up to three patients a week seen once- weekly in year one and continue throughout the course with three patients.. Mode A runs on Thursdays 1.00pm to 7pm for two years and on Friday at the same time for the next two years. Trainees are expected to build up to three patients seen once-weekly in year one and continue with three patients throughout the course.

Registration on the PDP L2 (licence to practise twice weekly) programme before qualifying as Psychodynamic Psychotherapists Candidates in the final year of the Postgraduate Diploma/MA at WPF Therapy may begin to meet the clinical requirements of PDP L2 before they have qualified as once- weekly Psychodynamic Psychotherapists. This is dependent on the candidate’s supervisor from the previous year giving their approval that the candidate is ready to take on one additional twice weekly patient. This is in addition to their clinical caseload of once weekly patients. The extra individual once- weekly supervision in the final year enables current trainees to complete the Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Programme - Licence to Practise Twice Weekly within a year post qualification.

Private Practice or WPF Therapy clinic Candidates registered on the PDP L2 programme and in their final year of the postgraduate diploma are accountable for case-work management and the upkeep of files to WPF Therapy Clinic and Caroline Shuttleworth, as Clinical Placement Manager (020 7378 2006) is available to supervisors should they have any concerns about the candidate in training or the clients. The Managers will initially approach the trainee should any difficulties arise but WPF Therapy reserves the right to speak with supervisors if necessary.

After trainees have gained the Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Studies they may have set up in private practice and they may request that their twice weekly patient is transferred out. As the welfare of the patient will be considered the priority, this would require a recommendation from their supervisor and the agreement of the Clinical Services Manager. If supervisees bring clients from another agency it is advisable that they provide you with written permission to discuss the clients. Assessment & Graduation : Final Assessment on the PDP L2 is through the submission of a portfolio including documentation which demonstrates that meet the various requirements in the following areas; personal therapy, client work, clinical assessments, and a case study. A report from the Training Supervisor is an important part of the portfolio. Appendix 6 (Supervisor’s Final Report Form).

WPF Therapy PSYCHODYNAMIC PSYCHOTHERAPY PROGRAMME

Licence to Practise Twice Weekly (L2) Criteria for the writing and marking Case Study

The Case Study (5,000-6,000 words) should demonstrate that the candidate can present a case in such a way as to give a clear image of the client and the interaction with the client. The paper should be supported by relevant psychodynamic/psychoanalytic theory that shows the candidate’s way of working as a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist working twice weekly. To obtain a pass, candidates should fulfil the following objectives: 1. The candidate should select a focus and title to illustrate some of the central

issues arising from the case, making critical use of material they have read from mainstream psychoanalytic/psychodynamic sources. The focus that arises may represent something that has caught their interest but it must be of central importance in understanding and illuminating the case.

2. The candidate should present one case in which the client has been seen at a

frequency of twice weekly. The study should include the candidate’s part in the case i.e. some sample pieces of verbatim. This should be done ethically and appropriately.

3.. The candidate must show a process of thinking about the case material with

regard to the following: transference, counter transference, regression (if appropriate) and any clinical benefits and limitations of working at the chosen frequency of twice per week.

4.. The candidate should also demonstrate an ability to employ psychoanalytic

theory appropriately showing some critical awareness of the usefulness and limitations of that theory.

5... The case study should be written in strict accordance with the APA style of

referencing’ (See Appendix 15). It should have accurate use of citations in the text, and a list of references.

Marking for each of the above sections will be weighted as follows:

1. 20 2. 20

3. 25

4. 20 5. 15

Please note that at least a pass mark (50%) must be attained on each of the above

sections for the paper as a whole to pass. In the event of your not passing a section, the

marks will not be totalled but instead the marker will write: ‘Fail –not all sections passed’. The marker will offer brief feedback on each section particularly for any section

that has not achieved a pass. The results will be one of the four below:

Distinction: over 70%

Tutors are not expected to read draft case histories, but may discuss planning and structuring. Tutors are not involved in assessment and normally tutorials will be confidential. If there should, exceptionally, be a reason to take any of the content outside the tutorial this will normally be by mutual negotiation and consent. Candidates are expected to see their tutor in the tutor’s consulting rooms. Candidates are asked to make contact with the tutor during the first term and from then on if the need arises. Two tutorials per year would be a reasonable average. Tutors must meet the following criteria: 1. Registered with BPC. As Psychoanalytic Psychotherapists 2.

APA referencing

APA (American Psychological Association) referencing style.

You must reference all material you use from all sources and acknowledge your sources in the body of your paper each time you use a fact, a conclusion, an idea or a finding from someone’s work. This establishes the academic authority of your work and acknowledges the researchers and writers you have drawn upon in your paper.

It is necessary to cite your sources each time you:

Use your own wording (summarise or paraphrase) to explain or discuss what someone has said. In this case, you should include the author and year of publication only.

or

Reproduce/ quote an author’s exact words, that is, copy into your paper, word for word directly from a text. In this case a page number must be included in addition to author and year of publication.

Part 1: In text Citations (i.e. summary or paraphrase)

APA style uses the author(s) and date of publication when you are paraphrasing, quoting or referring to another person’s ideas in the course of your own work. These should appear in brackets separated by a comma.

Example: (one author)

Essay writing can be made more manageable if a planned approach is taken (Clay, 2003).

Or

Clay (2003) argues that a planned approach to writing essays can be of great benefit.

Example: (two authors)

According to Antonakos and Kazanis (2003) there are advantages in keeping design and research methods simple.

Appendix 15


Or

There are advantages to keeping design and research methods simple (Antonakos & Kazanis, 2003).

In the case of three, four or five authors, cite all authors the first time, then in subsequent citations of this work, use the family name of the first listed author plus ‘et al.’ and the year as required.

Quotes (i.e. including the exact words of the original source)

Short Quotes (fewer than 40 words) should run on as part of the sentence with single quotation marks to signal where the quote starts and finishes. The page number indicating where the quote comes from must be included.

Example

Clay (2003) argues that students experience writer’s block because ‘they have not given sufficient thought to reviewing course content and developing their ideas’ (p.47).

Or

Students experience writer’s block because ‘they have not given sufficient thought to reviewing course content and developing their ideas’ (Clay, 2003, p.47).

Longer Quotes (more than 40 words) are known as ‘block quotes’. These quotes should be much less frequent and should:

start on a new line be indented about 5 spaces from the left hand margin omit quotation marks

Example: (the sample block quote below starts ‘some students are tempted etc…. … and ends ‘to their practice’.)

An important stage in assignment writing is planning. Clay (2003) comments that:

Some students are tempted to plunge into writing their papers, beginning with the introduction, but soon find that they experience ‘writer’s block’ and cannot decide what to write next. The problem occurs because they have not given sufficient thought to reviewing course content and developing their ideas about relating the theory to their practice (p.47).

There are a variety of ways that a student can plan………..etc.

Appendix 15


Part 2: Reference List

An important purpose of the reference list is to enable the reader to locate sources accurately. Therefore details must be correct and complete. Each in-text citation or quotation and the related reference list entry should be identitcal in spelling and and year of publication. A work is listed only once in the reference list, reagrdless of how many times it is cited in text. Works not cited in the text should not appear in the reference list.

N.B. Works Cited in the Reference List should only be the texts and citations used in the written work.

In compiling your APA style Reference List, you should:

list references on a new page with a centred heading titled References

include books, journal articles, online sources etc in one alphabetical listing

order entries alphabetically by family name of author/s list works with no author under the significant word of the title.

Examples of entries in Reference.

WPF THERAPY

TRAINEE DISABILITY POLICY The following policy outlines WPF Therapy’s policy in relation to trainee disability

WPF Therapy provision in relation to Disablity

WPF Therapy supports and promotes diversity and equality with regard to

student applications and recognises its duties with regard to SENDA (Special

Educational Needs and Disability Act) and the Equality Act 2010.

In order to anticipate the needs of individual students, any applicant with an

existing disability or significant learning difficulty must inform WPF Therapy at

the point of application for a place on one of our courses. This is to enable

staff to discuss with the applicant the extent and nature of their additional

needs and to identify what adjustments WPF Therapy is or is not able to

make on an individual basis.

WPF Therapy provides wheelchair access and our premises are DDA

compliant. WPF Therapy may provide other reasonable adjustments. Learning

materials can be provided in some alternative formats on request, for

example large print course documents. Other adjustments which may be

provided include additional time to complete assignments, tutor support, VDU

anti-glare screens or similar, seminar papers as electronic copies.

Procedure When a statement of disability or significant learning difficulty is made at application stage, the applicant will be asked to provide evidence in writing of how this is likely to affect their abililty to access and respond to the curriculum on offer. The applicant will also be asked to state what adjustments they are seeking from WPF Therapy. This request will be considered by the Programme Manager, Director of Training, Director of Business and Corporate Services and the CEO in terms of what reasonable adjustments WPF Therapy is able to make. The Director of Training or Programme Manager will inform the trainee what it is possible for WPF Therapy to provide.

Appendix 17


Background The Equality Act of 2010 and the Disability Discrimination Act (1995) requires that ‘reasonable adjustments’ must be made to working conditions, and the provision of services (such as training) in order to assist a disabled person. An organisation is requred to make reasonable adjustments However the amount of adjustment possible will depend on the organisation involved and what steps are reasonable depends on the circumstances of the case. They will vary according to:

the type of services being provided the nature of the institution or service and its size and resources the effect of the disability on the individual disabled person or student Some of the factors that might be taken into account are:

the financial resources available to the responsible body the cost of taking a particular step the extent to which it is practicable to take a particular step health and safety requirements

the relevant interests of other people http://www.ukcle.ac.uk/resources/directions/previous/issue4/senda/ 9.02.2012
