DESCRIPTION:Contemporary cognitive behavioral therapies (CBTs)\, such as Ba
 rlow’s Unified Protocol as well as third-wave therapies such as acceptan
 ce and commitment therapy (ACT) have converged on the avoidance of emotion
  as a central source of pathological symptoms that maintains suffering acr
 oss a variety of diagnoses. Exposure to and acceptance of emotional experi
 ence has therefore become central to these therapies. Likewise\, psychodyn
 amic theory has long held that warded off affects maintain unconscious con
 flicts that lead to symptoms and suffering. Psychodynamic therapy has been
  conceived of as a type of exposure therapy for such affects but has not a
 lways demonstrated a systematic approach to fostering such exposures. Inte
 nsive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) is an evidence-based experi
 ential dynamic therapy that offers a systematic approach to fostering expo
 sures to avoided emotions including in patients with chronic and refractor
 y psychopathology\, who tend to be especially avoidant of their emotional 
 experience. In this presentation\, the theory and evidence for ISTDP will 
 be reviewed. The techniques of ISTDP will be demonstrated through use of v
 ideo from a recorded treatment of a real patient. The intensive techniques
  of ISTDP can add to the arsenal of exposure-based approaches and may be e
 specially valuable with complex and chronic patients who are highly emotio
 nally avoidant.
