Belmont Counseling Associates

At ISTDP Boston, our mission is to promote the understanding and practice of Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) in the Boston area and beyond. We believe that this innovative therapeutic approach, developed by Dr. Habib Davanloo, offers a powerful and effective way to help individuals overcome a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges.

Our Services

We offer a variety of services designed to advance the understanding and practice of ISTDP, including:

• Training and Education: We provide training and education sessions for mental health professionals, psychotherapists, and other healthcare professionals who are interested in learning more about ISTDP and how to apply its principles in their practice.
• Conferences and Workshops: We organize conferences and workshops that bring together experts in the field of ISTDP to share their knowledge and experiences. These events provide a unique opportunity to learn from others, network with like-minded professionals, and stay up-to-date on the latest developments in the field.
• Scholarships and Fundraising: We offer scholarships to cover registration fees for our conferences and workshops, providing financial support to those who may not be able to otherwise attend. We also participate in fundraising efforts to support our activities and promote the development of ISTDP.

Our Team

Our team is led by Dr. Nat Kuhn, a psychiatrist who has extensive experience in ISTDP and a passion for promoting its adoption in the Boston area and beyond. We are also proud to collaborate with other experienced professionals in the field of psychotherapy, who share our commitment to advancing the understanding and practice of ISTDP.
