Davanloo modern Freud MONTREAL (CP) — Dr. Habit Davanloo may or may not be the greatest psychi atrist since Freud, as some of his admirers claim, but he is certainly one of the most successful in selling Freud. ian-style therapy to a public impatient for quick results. Davanloo, senior psychia. trist at the Montreal General Hospital and associate profe- ssor of psychiatry at McGill University, claims to have developed a treatment which takes only a fraction of the time required for classical psychoanalysis. His method, known as short-term dynamic psycho therapy, has become ppoular in the United States, with clinics operating in eight cities. The New York Times Magazine described him as “the doyen of brief psycho therapy.” Among other kudos, the article quoted British psy chiatrist Dr. David Malan as saying: “Freud discovered the unconscious, Davanloo has discovered how to use it therapeutically.” But some of his critics say he is sbandoning the prin ciples of sound therapy to create a product that will sell in today’s highly competitive psychic-healing marketplace In the 1950s when there was no serious rival to psy choanalysis, patients were willing to accept a treatment taking three to five years, and which sometimes became interminable TECHNIQUES ABOUND Today there are literally hundreds of techniques, from primal scream thereapy to psychodrama, offering to ease the pain of ‘modern life, usually at a fraction of the time and cost required by Freudian methods. But Davanloo denies that economic factors influenced him in'coming up with a form of Freudian therapy which can be completed in only 15 to 40 one-hour sessions. Davanloo, 56, emigrated from Iran to the United States in the 1960s, and studied at Harvard University. He says he orig: inally came to Canada in 1961 due to problems with U.S. immigration regulations. He spent some time on the psychiatrist's couch himself, and was frustrated by the time spent in gradually coax- ing the subconscious confliets to the surface. “The question I asked my self in the early 60s was, what happens if you go straight for a head-on col lision with the patient's de fences?” Instead of silently taking notes while patients ramble on about whatever comes into their mind, Davanloo challenges every. vague or ambiguous term the patient uses, pounces on every ex pression of doubt, and even criticizes the patient's be havior during the interview Every step of the process is recorded on videotape, and patients are asked to observe and comment on their own behavior on the tapes. Davanloo says his method produces “total change in every aspect” of the patient's behavior. But not everyone is con- vineed. “I wonder about claims of dramatic changes by short-term methods,” said Dr. John Robertson, director of Montreal's Allan Memorial Institute. “Most serious thinkers re- alize how extraordinarily dif- ficult it is to get people to change. Short-term therapy may be useful in carefully selected cases, but I would question its lasting value.” Dr. David Goldman, staff psychiatrist at the Allan Memorial, said short-term therapy can be effective in resolving a crisis situation, but cannot bring about pro. found reorganization of a dis ordered personality Greece tourism up ATHENS (AP) — About 12.6 per cent more tourists visited Greece in the first half of 1984 than in the first six months of 1983, but the number fell far short of mat ching the country’s banner year of 1982, the Greek Na tional Tourist Organization says The organization said 2.1 million tourists visited Greece through June 30, compared to 1.8 million for the like period of 1983.

Instead of being ticketed, the city will leaye a “cour. teay” ticket on the window: The ticket will say “We welcome you” and tell the vehicle's owner that “Castlegar appreciates their visit. It will also discreetly ask thé visitor to watch the city’s parking regulations and say that the city hopes enjoy their stay. Ald.

For many, the reason is stress, often originating outgide the family, says Valerie Step director of T House — a shelter for abused women in Trail. Often the stress is work-related, she said. A husband may disagree with or feel he's being ill-treated by his boss, but can't do anything about it, for fear of being laid off. Or perhaps be’s already lost his job. Such a man — feeling his threatened — will return home to his wife like a ticking bomb ready to explode. And the explosion will be directed towards his wife in.the form of physical abuse, said Stephenson. “A lot of men think it's okay to hit a woman,” she said.-“The wife's nagging at you, and you've had a bad day, so plow her “I's final act of dominance.” ‘The wive battering situation evolves into a cycle within the family, added Stephenson — a former teacher and soéial worker who's been director of Transition House for nearly a month. Husband and wife fall into a routine of continually criticizind one another. “Where the battering comes in is, okay, I have the final strength — I can hit you,” explained Stephenson. Despite a battering relationship, many women will stay with abusive husbands for years. This is because another cycle within the family develeps, Stephenson says. After a battering incident, a husband will feel remorseful “and he treats his wife like a queen. They go to dinner, he helps her around the house.” This only lasts for a short time, however, and eventually the wife is beaten again. Another reason a woman will stay with an abusive FEATURE REPORT nurses from Trail Regional Hospital who were alarmed by the number of women being treated for physical abuse within the family, the anonymous-looking Transition House (it's address is largely kept secret to protect its clients) provides shelter to abused women for up to two to three weeks. “Although its mandate Goesn’t include counselling services, Transition House provides group discussions, a referral service, advises women on the options available to them, and offers a place where they ean decide how to rearrange their lives. “That's what this place is for,” said Stephenson. “You can get away from that threatening situation and get your head together.” Women are referred to social services including family court, teen! aid, the rooms A of Human Resources, Transition house has a paway Mme for the general public, which is manned 24-hours a day.

City turns down NEC grant hike By CasNews Staff Castlegar council turned down a request Tuesday from the National Exhibition Centre for a 270 per cent grant increase for 1964-85. The NEC asked couneil to boost the city’s annual grant from $2,700 to $10,000 — a $7,300 increase. Council cited high area unemploy ment, a “restraint” budget, and the fact that it has maintained the level of its NEC grant over the last few years. “In times of restraint we haven't to increase the NEC grant at this time. The municipal budget was set in the late fall and can't simply be changed, he said. “$10,000 is a lot of money,” Calder. bank said, adding that it is “pretty well impossible to aceommodate.” Council also noted the NEC receives $1,500 from the United Way and $500 from the Castlegar and District Arts Council, for a total of $4,700 from Castlegar area residents — or about seven per cent of the total NEC budget. But NEC director Lucille Doucette, who appeared before council to appeal for the grant increase, said the city can do better. She told council the NEC “has a rocky history and at the moment it's not getting any better.” The centre was one of 28 established across Canada. Only 20 now remain, she said. The centres are funded by the National Museums, which makes funds available on a yearly basis, but only if it has enough funds left over from other projects. She said both federal and provincial goverpments have indicated that they $7,300 increase will not increase funding for the Castlegar NEC “unless we have more of a solid commitment from the city.” She said the NEC has an annual budget of $73,000, of which 36 per cent it raises itself and 64 per cent comes from grants. The city's $2,700 amounts to just four per cent, she said. “The distribution is not particularly equitable.” The National Museums plans to review their grants later this year, Doucette said, and there is every possibility it may either withdraw or curtail support for NECs. Doucette said it's necessary that the city show it is interested in retaining the NEC with an increased donation. But Calderbank : “We've done our best.” He noted that Nelson and the Central Kootenay Regional District do not contribute anything to the centre, while Trail just started to contribute. continued on poge Al Minister John Turner ap- porently doesn't like the woy his Campaign in Van- couver Quedra ts going.
