**MULTIMODAL PSYCHOTHERAPEUTIC TRAINING**
The multimodal psychotherapeutic education program is designed according to the standards of the European Association for Psychotherapy (EAP), incorporating various psychotherapeutic approaches to foster a broader understanding and application of different methods in practice. This specific program focuses primarily on logotherapy, which constitutes two-thirds of the overall curriculum, while the remaining one-third encompasses other modalities, such as psychoanalytic, reality therapy, systemic family therapy, transactional analysis, positive psychology, sports psychotherapy, child and adolescent therapy, and gerontological psychotherapy. This structure allows participants to gain in-depth knowledge and skills in logotherapy while also familiarizing themselves with a range of other therapeutic modalities, enhancing their flexibility and breadth in therapeutic practice.
### WHY CHOOSE MULTIMODAL PSYCHOTHERAPY STUDY?
Within the specialist study, students acquire the knowledge and competencies necessary for effectively conducting the psychotherapeutic process. They learn and clarify what is essential to master for work in individual, group, couples, family, or other psychotherapeutic settings. Participants become acquainted with psychotherapeutic techniques and methods, gaining insights into the three-dimensional structure of the human psyche and the psychopathology of mental health. They also develop skills to help individuals in distress and those seeking to improve their well-being.
Notably, as the only program in Slovenia, we offer a module on "Medicine in Psychotherapy," integrating knowledge from various medical fields into the psychotherapeutic process. The training involves collaboration with both domestic and international experts and lecturers in the fields of psychotheory, logotherapy, psychotherapy, medicine, and other related disciplines. These instructors share their extensive experience through a personal approach and interdisciplinary collaboration. The study is conducted in person in Ljubljana and its surroundings, and can also be offered remotely.
The Academy offers non-accredited postgraduate studies in psychotherapy and is an internationally accredited institution by the largest global organization in the field of logotherapy and existential analysis, Viktor Frankl Vienna. The Academy conducts studies in psychotherapy and is the only institution in Europe offering a specialist program in performance psychotherapy in sports based on a multimodal psychotherapeutic approach. This area particularly addresses the gap in the treatment of elite, aspiring, and recreational athletes, as it requires specialized knowledge for effective psychotherapeutic practice in the sports sector.
Performance psychotherapy in sports is an independent scientific discipline that places increasing responsibility on psychotherapists, demanding broad professional and specialized knowledge from complementary fields, ensuring that clients receive the best possible care for their mental health issues. Students are engaged in various training programs covering sports, science, clinical dietetics, fitness, medicine, and other specialized knowledge, skills, and competencies throughout their studies.
