The objective is to offer a high level training programme in theory and practical skills so that graduates can work professionally as ‘BSDT Dialogical Counsellors – Therapists’, under specific terms and conditions, in the BSDT – Brief Systemic Dialogical Therapy model, developed by Dina Mousteri. It provides graduates with the opportunity to register as a full member of the BSDT Institute and become a part of the BSDT therapist community.
The BSDT – Brief Systemic Dialogical Therapy model is an integrative approach to therapy which is being promoted through the training courses organized by the BSDT Institute. The model integrates ideas within the field of Systemic, Brief Solution oriented and Collaborative theories and practices.
The foundational philosophy of the model is based on ideas influenced by social constructionism and on the principle of the transformative power of language and dialogic conversation.
The BSDT approach is used in therapy with individuals, couples and families as well as in matters of social discourse and public dialogue. The training programs are specifically designed to offer theoretical knowledge and practical skills used in counselling and psychotherapy. According to the BSDT model, such knowledge expansion is highly depended on the creative use of the immense possibilities offered by Collaborative Dialogue.
