Mentorship with Joseph Weiss, M.D., Training and Supervising Analyst, San Francisco Psychoanalytic Institute; Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, UCSF; Director, San Francisco Psychotherapy Research Group; founder of Control Mastery Theory: Beginning in 1975, uninterrupted for almost 30 years, Dr. Zeitlin met individually for 1 hr/week with Dr. Weiss for an extended mentorship in the theory and practice of psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, and empirical research. (Approved for Category 1 CME credit) In addition to this weekly consultation, for many years he attended Weiss' weekly continuous case seminar, research seminar, and presentations by members of the San Francisco Psychotherapy Research Group.
For the past 38+ years, uninterrupted, Dr. Zeitlin has participated in "Psychotherapy Integration and Peer Review", a monthly 2 ½ hour group meeting of San Francisco psychiatrists of diverse theoretical orientation. Cases or topics of special interest are presented, focusing on theoretical and practical issues in psychotherapy. Primary goals are increased knowledge of theory and technique, appreciation and integration of varied perspectives, clarification of concepts for teaching purposes, and peer supervision and review. The group has nine members, and over the years has consisted primarily of senior UCSF psychiatrists. (Approved for Category 1 Continuing Medical Education [CME] credit)
