Unlocking the Unconscious, Intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy
Habib Davanloo (born October 10, 1927) is a psychoanalyst and psychiatric researcher, of Iranian descent, and working in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, who developed Intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy(ISTDP). He was Professor of Psychiatry (now Emeritus) at McGill University and founding editor of the International Journal of Intensive Short-term Dynamic Psychotherapy.
Davanloo was a psychiatric resident under Erich Lindemann, a German psychiatrist who specialized in the treatment of bereaved and traumatized patients.
Career
Davanloo was the director of the Institute for Teaching and Research in Short-term and Dynamic Psychotherapy at the Montreal General Hospital. In 1962 he began to develop his technique for treating patients on a short-term basis, creating and studying videotapes of sessions. He later gave seminars about his research and made the videotapes available.
Davanloo's methods, which according to some authors were based on resolving Oedipal conflicts, were widely discussed in psychiatric literature and successfully used by many other therapists.
