| Abstract: | Describes a psychotherapy training program that includes 4 sequentially arranged courses: individual, group, marital, and family therapy. The sequence exposes students to a wide range of therapeutic modalities and interventions. Groups, led by an advanced graduate student, learn through written assignments, oral and written critiques of practice sessions, conferences with leaders and/or the instructor, individual assessment, and corrective feedback during practice sessions. Although it is not a substitute for supervised practicum or internship, the sequence bridges the gap between classroom study and the later performance of psychotherapy in a supervised setting.
