Psikiyatri İhtisasında Psikoterapi Eğitiminin Yeri: Türkiye’den Bir Sunum

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışma, Türkiye'de psikiyatri asistanlığı eğitimi sırasında standartlar ve uygulamalar konusundaki bilgi eksikliğini ele alan bir anket aracılığıyla psikiyatri asistanlarının psikoterapi eğitim deneyimlerini araştırmayı amaçlamıştır. Materyal ve Metot: Çalışma, Türkiye'deki psikiyatri asistanlarına özel WhatsApp ve e-posta grupları aracılığıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışmamızda psikiyatri asistanlarının %80,5'i asistanlığı süresince psikoterapi eğitimi alırken, özellikle dört yıl ve üzeri asistanlık yapanların %97'si teorik, %68'i süpervizyon eğitimi almıştır. Ayrıca, asistanların önemli bir kısmı (%90,3) mezun olduktan sonra psikoterapi eğitimi almayı planladığını ifade etmiştir. Eğitim alanların %63,7'si eğitim aldığı kurumdan, %89,0'ı ise diğer merkezlerden almıştır. Ayrıca psikoterapi eğitiminin %47,8'i kurum içi öğretim üyeleri tarafından verilmiştir. Asistanlar arasında en çok tercih edilen psikoterapi türü Bilişsel Davranışçı Terapi oldu. Psikoterapi eğitimine erişimde en yaygın olarak bildirilen engel, yüksek maliyetiydi. Sonuç: Çalışma, Türkiye'deki psikiyatri asistanlarının çoğunun psikoterapi eğitimi aldığı sonucuna varmıştır. Psikiyatri asistanlığında psikoterapi eğitiminin arttırılması, engellerin aşılması ve süpervizyonun iyileştirilmesi ele alınması gereken kritik konulardır.

Psychotherapy Training in Psychiatry Residency: Insights from Türkiye

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the psychotherapy training experiences of psychiatry residents through a questionnaire, addressing the knowledge gap on standards and practices during psychiatry residency training in Türkiye. . Materials and Methods: The study was conducted via WhatsApp and e-mail groups specific to psychiatry residents in Türkiye. Results: In our study, 80.5% of psychiatry residents received psychotherapy training during their residency, whereas, especially in those who have been in residence for four years or more, 97% received theoretical training, and 68% received supervision training. Moreover, a substantial portion (90.3%) of residents expressed plans to pursue psychotherapy training after graduation. Of those who received training, 63.7% obtained it from their educational institution, while 89.0% obtained it from other centres. Furthermore, 47.8% of the psychotherapy training was provided by in-house faculty members. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy was the most preferred type of psychotherapy among the residents. The most commonly reported barrier to accessing psychotherapy training was its high cost.. Conclusion: The study concluded that most psychiatry residents in Türkiye received psychotherapy training. Enhancing psychotherapy training in psychiatry residency, overcoming barriers, and improving supervision are critical issues to be addressed
