And even if we become aware of this, we likely may still not understand ourselves. That's because we don't fully know our hearts and minds. In fact, most of what is inside of our mind is hidden from us. There is, however, a proven way to illuminate these parts of ourselves, with the help of psychodynamic therapy. And our guest today, Dr. Jonathan Shedler, is an expert on the human condition. He is a psychologist, master clinician and Clinical Professor of psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). He is internationally known as an author, researcher and clinical educator. His 2010 article The Efficacy of Psychodynamic Psychotherapy was applauded for establishing psychodynamic therapy as an evidence-based treatment. Jonathan is the co-creator of the Shedler-Westen Assessment Procedure (SWAP), a clinician completed psychological test for personality assessment and clinical case formulation and he is the co-author of the Personality Syndromes section of the Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual (PDM-2).
