Evaluation of Junior Doctors’ Experience of Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Training in LYPFT During the COVID-19 Pandemic

[摘要] Aims Developing psychotherapeutic competencies is an essential part of psychiatric training. All core trainees in LYPFT until 2021 saw a patient for Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. The pandemic led to unprecedented changes to clinical practice and medical education. In LYPFT all face-to-face appointments in the Medical Psychotherapy Service were paused in March 2020. Patients were offered the choice to continue therapy remotely or postpone therapy. Supervision was also moved to a remote format. Face-to-face psychotherapy sessions resumed from August 2020, with new departmental procedures around infection control and the use of PPE. This project aimed to establish the junior doctors’ experience of delivering psychodynamic psychotherapy in LYPFT during the COVID-19 pandemic.
