Evaluate the application of current literature to clinical practice

 Assignment: Applying Current Literature to Clinical Practice
Literature in psychotherapy differs from other areas of clinical practice. Generally, there are no clinical trials in psychotherapy because it is often neither appropriate nor ethical to have controls in psychotherapy research. This sometimes makes it more difficult to translate research findings into practice. In your role, however, you must be able to synthesize current literature and apply it to your own clients. For this Assignment, you begin practicing this skill by examining current literature on psychodynamic therapy and considering how it might translate into your own clinical practice.
Learning Objective
· Evaluate the application of current literature to clinical practice
To prepare:
· Review and evaluate the psychodynamic therapy article attached in the file and reflect on the insights they provide.
The Assignment
In a 5- to 10-slide PowerPoint presentation, address the following:
· Provide an overview of the article you selected.
· What population is under consideration?
· What was the specific intervention that was used? Is this a new intervention or one that was already used?
· What were the author’s claims?
· Explain the findings/outcomes of the study in the article. Include whether this will translate into practice with your own clients. If so, how? If not, why?
· Explain whether the limitations of the study might impact your ability to use the findings/outcomes presented in the article. Support your position with evidence-based literature.
Note: The presentation should be 5-10 slides, not including the title and reference slides. Include presenter notes (no more than ½ page per slide) and use tables and/or diagrams where appropriate. Be sure to support your work with specific citations from the article you selected. Support your approach with evidence-based literature.
