The Conversational Model of Therapy, which is also known as Psychodynamic-Interpersonal Therapy is an evidence-based psychological treatment. The model has a set of distinctive therapist behaviours, which can be taught and learnt in a short space of time. Although the model can be practised without an appreciation of the theory which underpins it, the theoretical basis of the model is rooted in psychodynamic ideas, and it shares many common theoretical approaches with other psychodynamic models. In this article, we describe the theoretical underpinnings of the model, include a description of basic model behaviours, an explanation of why these behaviours are important, and how they directly relate to and are derived from the theoretical stance. We also provide a case example, and show why the model can be practised without detailed theoretical knowledge to good effect, if its common guiding principles are followed.

对话式治疗模型的理论基础

会话治疗模型（也称为心理动力人际关系治疗）是一种基于证据的心理治疗。该模型具有一组独特的治疗师行为，可以在短时间内进行教学。尽管可以在不了解支撑模型的理论的情况下实践该模型，但是该模型的理论基础扎根于心理动力学思想，并且与其他心理动力学模型共享许多常见的理论方法。在本文中，我们描述了模型的理论基础，包括对基本模型行为的描述，解释了这些行为为何重要的原因，以及它们如何直接与理论立场相关并从理论立场衍生而来。我们还提供了一个案例
