Course Overview
This presentation is divided into 3 parts: an overview; description and understanding of specific personality disorders; and clinical focus where specific clinical examples are discussed. There is a focus on how to apply the theoretical understanding about personality disorders and the experience of individuals who struggle with them, in clinical settings.
Objective
  • Know what a personality disorder and which types of personality disorders are most likely to be seen in an acupuncture practice
  • Know the characteristics, similarities and differences of types of personality disorders are most likely to be seen in an acupuncture practice
  • Know the subjective experiences of individuals struggling with these conditions. In other words, what is it like for an individual who is dealing with a specific personality disorder and common interpersonal styles/behaviors commonly seen with each
  • Be able to apply the understanding of these conditions to interactions with patients with these conditions and how that impacts what and how the acupuncturist interacts with the patient.
  • Participants will become more aware of one's own reactions to individuals with these conditions so that the clinician can make more informed conscious choices about how and why one chooses to interact with these patients

    About Stephen Saeks

    Dr. Saeks became interested in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in 1975, and spent many years learning on his own about this multidisciplinary field. When he and his family moved to Portland, Oregon, in 2000, he enrolled in the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine where he completed his formal training in TCM. Prior to that he received his PhD in Clinical Psychology and completed a 2 year Postdoctoral Internship at the Menninger Clinic, where he worked on staff for an additional 10 years. Steve’s initial interest in TCM was in traumatology — the understanding and treatment of physical injuries — and sports medicine. Over the years he expanded his study of TCM to explore the role it could play in the treatment of stress, addictive behaviors, and other psychological conditions. In his practice, he still does traditional individual psychotherapy, TCM, and in certain situations, he integrates acupuncture into his psychotherapy process for issues such as depression, insomnia, anxiety and trauma. Throughout his professional career, Steve has taught at a number of medical institutions and universities. as well as international conferences on group and individual treatment approaches.
