FAQ

Q: Why should I join this consultation group?

A: Besides the fact that this will help you sleep better at night knowing that you have a coherent plan for your toughest cases (!), you will learn how to practice DDP in the most effective way: by doing it. Rather than only having attachment theory inform your practice intellectually, you will learn actual attachment-based skills and techniques to turn theory into practice.

Q: Do I have to present a video in order to get DDP supervision on a case?

A: No, you can just present orally. You can even do a live role play on Zoom if you are feeling courageous.

Q: What if I can’t fill a whole hour of my supervision time?

A: This rarely happens! But if you run out of questions, we will turn to the group for their questions/comments.

Q: What kind of technology will I need?

A: The supervision will be done through Zoom, which is an online conference program. You will need a webcam and microphone, a stable internet connection and your video on your computer (if you have video).

Q: Will this count towards DDP certification?

A: The DDP practicum begins after you have taken Level 2 and have applied and been accepted to the practicum. For more details, see:https://ddpnetwork.org/ddpi/practitioner-certification-ddp/ Once you are enrolled in the DDP practicum, your presentations will count (as long as you present with video).

Q: If it doesn’t count towards certification until after Level 2, why should I join the supervision group?

A: Besides the fact that this will help you sleep better at night knowing that you have a coherent plan for your toughest cases (!), you will want to build your DDP foundational skills before applying for the official practicum.
