Richard F Summers
Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Senior Residency Advisor, Perelman School of Medicine of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA.

The rationale, content, and teaching techniques used for a psychiatry residency psychodynamic therapy course based on Psychodynamic Therapy: A Guide to Evidence-Based Practice (Summers & Barber, 2009) are presented in the context of their evolution over the last two decades and the challenges of teaching this topic in the current environment. The central elements of an exciting and engaging psychotherapy teaching program-feelings, framework, and freedom-are explained. Specific topics such as psychodynamic formulation, using videos, self-disclosure, and resistance are discussed.
