Awaiting English description

Feedback Informed Treatment (FIT) er en evidensbaseret praksis, der går på tværs af terapeutiske tilgange. Formålet med FIT er at højne kvaliteten og effektiviteten af terapeutiske forløb. Gennem anvendelse af to enkle spørgeskemaer i hver terapeutisk samtale muliggøres bl.a.: 1) At terapeuten kan følge klientens udvikling i terapien: Får klienten det bedre gennem samtalerne? Værre? Er der ingen udvikling? Og 2) at terapeuten får kontinuerlig, formaliseret feedback fra klienten på samarbejdet og alliancen mellem terapeut og klient. Gennem denne feedback får terapeuten mulighed for at justere sine metoder i terapien, således at han/hun bliver mere hjælpsom for klienten. En sådan tilgang til terapi har vist sig at kunne skære ”drop-outs” fra terapien ned til det halve, at kunne forbedre effekten af terapien væsentligt, og at kunne mindske risikoen for forværring.

På kurset gennemgås forskningen bag FIT, hvilket inkluderer et overblik over, hvad virker i psykoterapi. Der vil blive introduceret til og trænet anvendelse af FIT-spørgeskemaerne, såvel som øvet forståelse af grafisk afbildning af terapeutiske forløb, og hvordan disse kan anvendes til at skræddersy det terapeutiske forløb, således at dette bliver mere effektivt. Slutteligt gives et indblik i, hvad der iflg. denne tilgang kendetegner de allerdygtigste terapeuter, og hvordan man kan arbejde i retning af at blive en top-terapeut. Kurset vil bestå af en blanding af teoretiske oplæg, øvelser og refleksion.
