LACAP clinicians work within LACAP guidelines, but they are free to negotiate
the working contract with each patient. This means that they can give an appropriate
and commensurate frequency of sessions, and timing of sessions.
Long-term and open-ended treatments are offered. In principle, LACAP has no
problem with supporting therapy for as long as each treatment takes to conclude.
The duration will not be limited by a set number of sessions or an artificial
time boundary. Thus the needs of the patient will take priority over the supply
of therapeutic time.
LACAP clinicians are psychoanalytically orientated, and therefore the treatments
are derived from the psychoanalytic model, but varied according to the patient's
ability to engage with and derive benefit from that model. |
