Dear colleagues,
Great news that the IMPACT psychoanalytic treatment manual are published. Congratulations!
In the FEST-IT (First Experimental Study of Transference interventions - In Teenagers)
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3545957/

we have been fortunately allowed to use the manual. At the moment 65 of the planned 100 patients are included.
We have used the manual as basis for the therapist training program and as background in clinical discussions during the treatment period.
The therapists in FEST-IT have also had the opportunity to meet and discuss with the manual authors which has helped securing the treatment adherence, especially the time-limited aspect.
When we finally can publish results, I think we will also have the possibility to compare the FEST-IT results to the IMPACT study and hopefully, as our brick in the wall,  help build a more coherent evidenced base in child- and adolescent psychotherapy.

Best wishes,
Randi
