The workshop session was led by Dr. Linjo CJ,  Father of Instrumentum Psychotherapy and  Clinical Psychologist at Louis Mount Hospital,Wayanad. The programme commenced with a heartfelt welcome address by Dr. Nisha K., Head of the Department of Psychology. Instrumentum Psychotherapy, a pioneering concept in the field of psychology, is revolutionizing therapeutic practices by integrating the use of psychological instruments alongside verbal therapy methods. Developed by Dr. Linjo C J after years of extensive research and analysis, this innovative approach combines established psychological principles, such as neuroplasticity, learning, motivation, and critical thinking, with novel instruments specifically designed to address behavioral disorders.Unlike traditional therapies, Instrumentum psychotherapy leverages the potential of psychological instruments that are typically used for assessment purposes in psychology. By harnessing these instruments to facilitate therapeutic interventions, behavioral changes can be more effectively induced, leading to greater treatment efficacy and long-lasting results. The workshop concluded with a vote of thanks delivered by Malufa, 3rd year student, who expressed gratitude to Dr. Linjo CJ for his enlightening session and to all participants for their active engagement.
