Dear Colleagues,
Still in the summer mode, the world continues to have it’s interesting news items, ranging from a jury sentencing a man to life imprisonment for killing 9 people, to police officers being arrested and uproar over debates and upcoming presidential primaries in the USA. Meanwhile, Greece is still attempting to recover and N. Korea has decided to move it***s time zone by a half hour, (Really?) while we remember Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Meanwhile our website is brimming with posts related to above and to our own work in our offices and in the community.
Below I list the posts which interested me followed by the entire menu.
My choices:
1) I glanced at the Austen Riggs Center’s events this fall and urge you to consider it – a) there is an on line course: The Y-Model for Teaching Psychotherapy Competencies
Instructor: Eric M. Plakun, MD(MD / 1 CE/CME credits)
This presentation offers an overview of the evidence for the effectiveness of psychotherapy as a form of treatment, then offers a re-conceptualization of the three schools of therapy (CBT, Psychodynamic Therapy and Supportive Therapy)
b)Fall Conference: Violence in Relation to Gender and Sexuality October 17, 2015 | Austen Riggs Center

At the risk of ***Hoffman fatigue*** I write my critique of Drs. Banks, Dunivin, James, and Newman***s message because I find it so distorted that I feel compelled to write down my reaction, even though I know others have done the same.
In response to the Kaufman report, Drs. Morgan Banks, Debra Dunivin, Larry C. James, and Russ Newman have written what they regard as a critique of the report. The first three are or were military psychologists who served in Guantanamo and Russ Newman is the spouse of Debra Dunivin. Dr. Dunivin was what is known as a ***BSCT*** or member of a Behavioral Science Consulting Team, the organization of mental health professional experts who participated in the interrogation of Guantanamo detainees. Dr. Banks, although not an APA member, was appointed to the PENS Task Force along with Dr. James, who is an APA member. The military connections of this ******.
