Independent Study Path in Orgonomy: Dr. Frisch’s Method

Integrated Clinical Training for Professionals & Students in the U.S. & Internationally

Dr. Patricia Frisch has designed a program that teaches students and professional therapists the how to’s, nuts and bolts of clinical process from A to Z. Her detailed progression from theory to practice makes her Independent Study Path in Orgonomy highly practical and useable. She delineates key guiding features: from the important points of the first phone call to what to do in the first session: what to ask, guidelines on important paper work; to figuring out the character of the patient so interventions make sense; to the stages of therapy: beginning, middle and termination; bodywork and dream analysis. Her course discusses critical elements of Reichian Orgonomic therapy and her own unique method — theory to practice.

Dr. Frisch has created an innovative method that synthesizes elements of Reich’s theory and Orgonomy with theories of James Masterson, M.D. and the Masterson Institute. She has integrated preoedipal, Disorders of the Self (personality disorders) with Reich’s character typology to create a comprehensive typology that includes both neurotic and early attachment disorders.

The Frisch Institute of Modern Orgonomy (FIMO) now offers U.S. and International students an opportunity to learn Dr Frisch’s integrated method that includes Orgonomy, the classical theoretical foundation of somatic psychology through distance learning courses and private mentorship, as part of the Institute’s Independent Study Path. Students can follow this outlined trajectory of audio MP3’s and use Zoom or live mentorship to learn theoretical components and listen to experiential segments that demonstrate the art of characteranalysis and other techniques.  Zoom sessions are also available to international students.  Completion of the Independent Study Path prepares students for the Biophysical Series, which trains professionals in somatic interventions. Dr. Patricia Frisch, Executive Director of FIMO, has created her own unique method that integrates current attachment theory and Jung’s approach to the unconscious while maintaining the integrity of Reich’s theories. Her method makes characteranalysis immediately relevant to present day psychodynamic psychotherapy. Dr. Frisch’s entire method is now available in a distance learning format that allows students to self-pace their learning experience and study/review material to the point of mastery.

These MP3 Classes study groups cover extensive theoretical material while facilitating experiential integration through listening to animated clinical discussions and practice dyads. The recordings of live classes, which include case presentations and question/answer periods, give the student an experience of being in class rather than just cognitively absorbing didactic presentations.  All recorded classes and study groups have an ample experiential component where Dr. Frisch coaches mock therapeutic dyads.

The Student Experience: Independent Study Path (ISP)

We asked two of our students to tell us of their experience moving through the ISP.

What made you chose the ISP program?

A.P. “Firstly, I was very struck by the Dr Frisch’s synthesis and approach. The training that I had had in my Masters Program, while being very interesting and useful, lacked any sense of spine, self-belief or frame. Content-wise, I feel very drawn to this somatically informed character analytic work for its robust depth and the powerful and transformational therapeutic frame it provides. The ISP program allows for listening at home or in the car and that means less time traveling to workshops/input sessions.”

M.P. “I chose the ISP program because I wanted to study Reich’s work with Dr. Frisch. She is such an effective therapist…” Read more…
