Behavior Online Highlight: The Case of Otto Freund

THE CASE OF OTTO FREUND

July 9, 1996

Our new Clinical Case Conference has begun! There is nothing like it on the Web and it is already one of the most popular features in the brief history of Behavior OnLine, with more than 1000 visits to date. If you are a psychotherapist, or are in training for this professional role, I cordially invite you to participate in the Conference.

Presenting the Case of Otto Freund is Donald Nathanson, the widely known and highly regarded theorist and clinician/teacher whose work is concerned with shame and affect theory. He is executive director of the Silvan S. Tomkins Institute, a clinical professor of psychiatry at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia, and a regular columnist at Behavior OnLine.

Joining Don as expert commentators are three other senior clinician/teachers, all of whom are active in the Behavior OnLine community:

Jessical Broitman of the San Fransisco Psychotherapy Research Group who represents the perspective of Control Mastery Theory as articulated by Weiss and others.
Henry Stein of the Adler Institute of San Francisco, a leading proponent of Classical Adlerian Psychotherapy.
Vick Kelly, a senior collaborator of Nathanson's and the training director of the Tomkins Institute.

To enter the Case Conference return to the Behavior OnLine homepage and scroll down to "Clinical Case Conference." A click there will take you through the enrollment process. In future visits you can take a short-cut by clicking on "Quick Access."
