Discussions invite vigorous diagnostic guessing, leading to a comprehensive life style analysis and a treatment plan.
Reading: Generally, no reading is required, although selected articles may be suggested in advance for a brief discussion before engaging in a case presentation.
E-mail: When possible, the therapist scheduled to present a case, may send a copy of the client's 12-page questionnaire to Dr. Stein.
Discussion: Monthly two-hour telephone teleconferences. Uusally scheduled September to June (10 meetings).
Time: Normally scheduled on Saturdays, 10:00am - 12:00pm Pacific Time. Participation is optional. Several CADP therapists have participated monthly since 1988.
Cost: $50/session. Participants may also pre-pay for the full series of 10 sessions.
Note: Prerequisite: Courses DT101, DT102A, DT102B, DT201, DT301, DT302A, DT302B, DT303, Dt304, DT305, DT401, DT402, DT403, DT404.
