NZPsS NEWS A Big Thank You for your subs payments Thank you to those members who have already paid their subs. It helps us enormously to have subs promptly paid. If you need any assistance at all with your subs please contact Donna at membership@ psychology.org.nz . She will be happy to assist.

Pay by 1 July 2015 and you go into a draw to win a NZPsS PD voucher up to the value of $200!! Meeting with the Board –re complaints issues NZPsS President Kerry Gibson and Executive Director Pamela Hyde met with representatives of the Psychologists Board, Ann Connell, Steve Osborne, Monique Faleafa and Anne Goodhead to talk about the issues which NZPsS members raised in the NZPsS survey on complaints. Issues noted to the Board was that experiencing a complaint is a very stressful process, particularly when people feel that they are regarded by the Board as being guilty until proven innocent. Other issues that were identified in the survey was the double or triple jeopardy issue when a complaint is dealt with by more than one agency e.g. Family Court, lack of communication from the Board and that the process was time consuming and sometimes costly. Having more information on the Board’s processes was noted as something that would be useful in the future. Some respondents noted that they had appreciated supportive comments from the Board and when a complaint was not upheld,

to have a letter stating that they remained in good standing with the Board. They also welcome the opportunity to provide feedback on the process to the Board. The Board were very open to hearing members’ concerns. They did note that their role as impartial adjudicator made it difficult to provide support at the same time as impartially looking at the complaint and they look to the professional associations to provide this support. They also noted that other agencies looking at complaints had a different role from the Board, the Family Court for example views complaints from more of an employer stance and the Board looks at complaints though the very specific lens of the HPCA Act. The Board assured us that they will continue to look at their processes to ensure that these are as streamlined as possible as they are aware of the stress caused by delays. They note however that delays are often caused by issues outside their control as they rely on people to be available for hearings etc. The Board said they were committed to facilitating opportunities for feedback to be given by psychologists experiencing the complaints process so that they can do what they can within the constraints of the Act.

Notice of AGM of the New Zealand Psychological Society Members are advised that the NZPsS AGM will take place at the venue of the NZPsS Conference at the University of Waikato Date and Time: 4.30pm Sunday 30 August, Room MSBI.02 Where: School of Management, University of Waikato, Hamilton- (venue accessed by Gate 7) The business to be transacted will include • Receiving annual reports from Society officers and sub-groups • Remits • General business Election of Officers There are no vacant positions on the Executive this year. Submitting Remits to the Annual General Meeting Content of Remits The Executive recommends that Remits fall into one of two categories: 1. Opinion Remits Opinion remits are those on which members seek to have their opinions or attitudes recorded on a social issue. Members are free to express opinions on social issues. The conventional way of handling such issues is to quantify opinions in terms of positive, negative and neutral attitudes. It is recommended that this procedure be used for the recording of votes on opinion remits, so that generalisation to all Society members cannot be inferred. 2. Action Remits Action remits are those which seek to bind the Society to a given course of action. In both organisational and legal terms, the Objects define

and limit what the Society can do. An action remit should show in what way it proposes action on the part of the Society within the Society’s Objects (Rule 2). Unless the Chair of a general meeting is satisfied that an action remit falls within the Society’s Objects it should not proceed as an action remit but could be dealt with as an opinion remit. Format of Remits Remits should be a brief expression of opinion or of suggested action and should not include arguments in support. Movers have the opportunity to express arguments at the meeting. It is expected that the proposer(s) of the remit will indicate the nature of supporting evidence, i.e. whether it is of experimental, survey, professional or personal origin. Remits should be submitted in writing, accompanied by the names of the proposer(s) and seconder and indication of sub-group or other support, to the NZPsS Executive Director at least one month before the Annual General Meeting. Final due date for remits is 30 July, 2015. Please email remits to Pamela Hyde at executivedirector@ psychology.org.nz

Professional Issues Ethics Matters Our online presence as psychologists

We now live in a world where the notion of privacy is being sorely tested by access to online information about other people, and of course ourselves. Privacy has always been one of the core ingredients of psychological work - focussed predominantly on protecting the privacy of our clients through adhering to ethical standards of practice as set out in the Code of Ethics and the Privacy Act. The privacy of the therapist or psychologist has traditionally been taken for granted – social information about us was seen as not relevant to the therapy work that we engage in and relationally-focussed therapists Meeting Procedure would use attempts by the client to know something Rule 29.1 requires the Society to give all members 35 about the psychologist or therapist as material to work calendar days’ notice of an Annual General Meeting. As with in the session, whilst erring on the side of retaining noted above action remits should be in the hands of a neutral social persona. Therapist self-disclosure has the NZPsS Executive Director within the deadline for always been a controversial topic for discussion in journal inclusion in the AGM agenda so that members are aware articles and at conferences. This column is however about of the remits put forward and what the Society may be an “unintended or unintentional” self-disclosure through committed to if action remits are approved. The mover participating in everyday online social media activities. of each action remit should indicate which Objects of the I thought it will be useful to discuss this in two columns Society, the remit relates to. – partly because I am interested in how you, the readers, The usual procedure for submitting remits for think about this topic and would greatly appreciate consideration at the AGM is EITHER to have the remits your feedback to include in the second column, but passed at a formal sub-group meeting OR to obtain also because there is a lot that can be offered in the support for the remit from any five or more members. way of guidelines on how to develop and maintain an Remits supported in either of these ways may be given online profile that is compatible with our registration as priority over remits from individual members. psychologists. In the first column I would therefore like to In accordance with Rule 27.2 remits tabled at the AGM will bring some awareness to the possible ethical challenges only be considered at the Chairperson’s discretion. faced by psychologists who have an online presence; and Page 2

in the second column, I will discuss your feedback and the guidelines. Online presence for the purpose of this column includes being active on any social media site such as Twitter or Facebook, online dating sites such as Tinder or Pink Sofa and other social media interest sites such as Pinterest or Instagram. The Code of Ethics is silent on the matter of bringing the profession of psychology into disrepute. The closest statement in the Code that refers to the world we live in and how we should engage with it is section 4.1.6 (The welfare of society) “Psychologists do not contribute to, nor engage in, research that promotes or is intended for use in the torture of persons, the development of prohibited weapons, destruction of the environment, or any other act that contravenes international law”. Of much more relevance to this column is the statement in the New Zealand Psychologists Board decision guidelines relating to parts 3 and 4 of the HPCA ACT, which was adopted on the 21st of May 2015: “If the alleged conduct occurred outside of the psychologist’s professional role, then when objectively viewed is it of a sufficiently serious nature or is it manifestly incompatible with a person’s registration as a psychologist? If so, it can constitute conduct with professional ramifications. That conduct will also be conduct which would tend to bring the profession into public disrepute and to lessen the community’s confidence in the profession of psychology.” This makes things much more challenging and interesting from an ethical decision-making perspective - what is considered an objective view or sufficiently serious? What does manifestly incompatible mean? What are the kinds of activities that bring the profession into disrepute? I would like to describe a few vignettes and look forward to your responses on my email – [email protected], which I will incorporate into next month’s column. On a recent visit home to South Africa I had a chance to spend time with my nephew who, in the eight years since I last saw him, has qualified as a hunting gunsmith. He offered me the opportunity to participate in target shooting with an array of guns and pistols. Of course,

there were many photos taken of me holding a large rifle, the long-lost aunt who did not once manage to hit the target. I made a decision not to put these photos on Facebook (even though my page is set to maximum privacy settings) and selected a setting that I could “untag” myself if someone else posted them. Is target shooting incompatible with the profession of psychology that values human and animal life, or is this me being too sensitive? How would clients view a photo of me aiming a semi-automatic rifle without knowing the context? My colleague has a Twitter account and her account name is not difficult to find. She regularly posts about her past life regression sessions and how useful she finds this work to understand her own current state of mind, relationships and financial stressors. Does her public support of a framework of understanding human behaviour that is not supported by scientific evidence bring disrepute to the profession? A psychologist in my peer supervision group is single and wants to embark on online dating. His profile photo is publically accessible and enables other members registered to the site to message him – including those members without photos. How would he ensure that clients don’t contact him? Should he add his profession to the careers’ section on the online dating site? Should he specify his sexual preferences on his profile or not, whilst knowing that the less information he provides, the less likely he is to be successful at finding a date? Privacy is truly a thing of the past – and the breach of privacy a press of a button away. As psychologists we are tasked with protecting the public’s trust in the profession and to refrain from engaging in behaviour that might impact on this trust. What does this mean for the evergrowing “new” generation of psychologists who live a huge part of their lives online? And if information about our hobbies, preferences and activities are becoming so easily accessible to the public, what does this mean for how we as psychologists conduct our lives? I look forward to a collaborative response to developing some guidelines for “e-professionalism” in New Zealand as the boundaries between our personal and professional lives

are challenged in the virtual space we live in. Dr Elizabeth du Preez is a registered clinical and counselling psychologist and a lecturer on the Postgraduate Programme in Counselling Psychology at AUT. She has a special interest in professional ethics and clinical supervision and maintains a small private practice in Auckland.

Student Space From your student rep- Michele Blick Kia ora fellow students I recently attended the committee meeting of the Auckland Branch. I was warmly welcomed and found it a valuable experience. This was an opportunity to begin to feel a sense of connection with my local branch and to hear about the interesting range of workshops that are planned for the year. I was not the only student in attendance. Camille Patterson and Samantha Brennan are the student reps for the Auckland Branch. I enjoyed the chance to connect with fellow students and to discuss ways to facilitate connectedness and engagement of students in the Auckland area. I encourage you to make contact with your local branch. On the NZPsS website under ‘Membership’ there is a link to ‘Member Groups’. Here you will find a list of the various Institutes and Divisions as well as the Branches throughout the country. If you have not received any information from your local branch, email [email protected] to make sure your details have been forwarded. Last month the student reps of the Auckland Branch organised a student get together before the Self Care Workshop that was facilitated by Kerry Gibson and Fiona Howard. This was my first experience attending a student gathering. It was fantastic to see how many students came along and, again, I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to meet other students. Because we are all geographically scattered and studying at various institutions, making the effort to attend events and connect with Society members, both psychologists and fellow students, is beneficial in so many ways.

How are you feeling about your internship year? If you are feeling unsure, have unanswered questions and could do with some extra guidance, this book may be helpful. Tim Kilgour, a clinical psychologist and member of the Society, has published an e-book resource for intern psychologists – ‘How to Make the Most out of Your Psychology Internship: A Guide for Graduate or Post-Graduate Clinical Psychology Students on Agency Placements’. While the title refers to clinical psychologists, the information is relevant for all psychology students. This book is based on Tim’s experience as an intern, in addition to supervising, overseeing and examining many psychology interns. The book is full of practical advice and his writing style is accessible and humorous. http://www.amazon.com/Make-Most-Your-PsychologyInternship-ebook/dp/B0094NB9CW I will be attending my first Executive meeting this month. I am there to represent my fellow students. Thank you to the students who have emailed me with thoughts, issues, queries … Please feel free to let me know if there is anything you would like me to communicate to the Executive on your behalf ([email protected]) Ka kite Michele

Float Culture – Fighting Stress, One Float at a Time In a culture that provides endless stress, Float Culture in Auckland offers a solution...NOTHING. And yes, this nothing is so good that people are actually willing to pay for it. Auckland Float Culture is a facility providing floatation therapy for men and women of all ages and all walks of life – where floating in state-of-the-art Epsom Salt water pods (as in the Dead Sea) will help you rediscover your health, vigour and enthusiasm in complete peace and privacy. What is floatation therapy (REST therapy)? Floatation therapy involves lying in floatation pod filled with super-saturated Epsom-salt solution about 30cm deep. The salt-water solution is heated to skin temperature 35.5C. Once you are settled, it is almost impossible to tell which parts of your body are in the water and which aren’t. The high density of our saline solution will make you feel completely weightless, letting every single muscle in your body fully relax. The float pods are specifically designed to block out all external distractions, such as sights, sounds, tactile sensations and gravity. The sudden de-stimulation of large areas of the nervous system, which occurs during a float session, triggers a spontaneous chainreaction throughout the body to remove stress and leave you feeling wonderful – your whole body chemistry changes. Floatation is ideal for reducing stress in those who have already succumbed to chronic stress, as well as a preventative measure for those whose levels are increasing. Blood tests indicate that floating reduces the levels of stress and stress related neurochemicals such as adrenaline, cortisol and ACTH – it’s the high levels of these chemicals in the bloodstream that leave you feeling “stressed out” and vulnerable to heart disease and a weakened immune system. A floatation tank helps your brain slow down and re-synchronise. Slipping into the theta state is a form of deep meditation that brings calm and relaxation to your mind and body, while at the same time stimulating a flood of endorphins. Theta brainwaves are also linked to vision and creativity and enhanced problem solving abilities. “Seventy per cent of the patients reported far more relief from anxiety and stress from flotation than any other therapy.” – Flotation REST in Applied Psychophysiology, Thomas H. Fine, M.A. and Roderick Borrie, Ph.D. While we can cite scientific studies about floating, or introduce you to the very relaxed customers at Float Culture, at the end of the day floating is best experienced.

The Developing Brain and the Neuroscience of Memory and Trauma Dr Pieter Rossouw 20-21st July 2015 in Auckland, 9.00am - Sorrento in the Park, 670 Manukau Rd, Royal Oak 23-24th July 2015 in Queenstown, 9.00am- Rydges Queenstown, 38-54 Lake Esplanade The NZPsS Institute of Clinical Psychology are very excited to provide advanced news of our workshops for July 2015 in Auckland and Queenstown where Dr Pieter Rossouw will be presenting a 2 day workshop on ‘The Developing Brain and the Neuroscience of Memory and Trauma’. Pieter provides generic training in the field of applied neuroscience for clinicians from many different professional backgrounds – general psychologists, school counsellors, social workers, mental health nurses, general practitioners etc. This particular workshop is specifically designed for clinical psychologists with significant emphasis on advanced strategies. He will briefly recap the key neural principles but focuses much more in this workshop on advanced treatment strategies and skills from clinical perspective to maximise treatment outcomes for practitioners. The workshop is an interactive activity with case presentations and interactive discussions to enhance skills based learning. The psychological and neurobiological effects of trauma have significant implications for well being. Theoretical and treatment modalities for trauma have been the focus of study for many researchers. Recent discoveries in neurobiology have changed the landscape of theory and treatment of Psychological Trauma. These discoveries assisted with our understanding of neural processes, memory and neural communication. Clarity about these concepts

assists clinicians towards more effective interventions with clients suffering from the aftermath of trauma. This workshop will focus on recent neurobiological research and current theories into neural development and key neural changes of the developing brain. The role of relevant neural structures (pons and brainstem; limbic structures – thalamus, amygdala, hypothalamus and hippocampus; frontal cortical structures and prefrontal cortical structures) are explored in terms of memory systems and the effect of trauma. The key building block of the brain (the neuron) and its action of communication (the synapse) are discussed in terms of memory and trauma. This is complimented with an overview of the role of key neurotransmitters (serotonin, norepinephrine, GABA, adrenalin, dopamine, cortisol and beta-endorphins) in the communication process, memory, and the implications in relation to trauma. These neurobiological findings have significant implications for therapeutic interventions. In light of a clearer understanding of current research, effective intervention strategies are explored to address the psychological and neurobiological effects of: • Adult survivors of childhood trauma • Impaired memory systems as result of trauma • Nature related trauma • Interpersonal trauma • Vicarious trauma in terms of the neurobiological effects and psychological implications of violation of attachment, control, self-esteem and meaning of life.

Making the case for personalized psychotherapy A one day workshop presented by David Green, UK Auckland 3/11, Wellington 9/11 & Dunedin 12 November 2015 The Evidence-based treatment movement has delivered a number of significant benefits for example the identification of harmful brands of psychological therapy (Lilienfeld 2007). However we remain far from finding the holy grail of “what works for whom” at the level of the individual (Fonagy 2010). What might characterize a truly personal approach to psychotherapeutic practice? Informed choice. For a potential client to make a considered decision about the treatment strategy she would want her therapist to adopt two basic requirements must be met. Firstly there need to be a range of credible local options from which to choose and secondly most consumers will appreciate a trustworthy guide to help them weigh the available scientific evidence for and against the alternatives on offer. While the first criterion could theoretically be met by a service that employed a number of specialist practitioners each of whom operated within a single model, advocates of a “pluralistic” approach to therapy(Cooper and McLeod 2012) argue against the production of one-trick professional ponies and for more flexible training schedules. It is notoriously difficult to find a fully informed and unbiased commentator in the field of psychotherapy outcome research but some appraisals manage to strike a convincing balance (eg Marcus et al 2014) Psychotherapy as a responsive exercise. Rather than construe psychological treatment as the systematic application of tried and trusted procedures a personalized stance emphasizes the ongoing conversation between treater and treated as the two parties search for the most productive way of working together. The emphasis is more on relationships that work than on efficacious treatment packages (Norcross 2002). Equal importance is ascribed to minimizing the interpersonal behaviours that are associated with deterioration and drop-out in therapy (Castonguay et al 2010) The centrality of the treatment contract. There is strong empirical support for the belief that establishing an agreed and mutually understood set of expectations about what the goals of a person’s treatment should be is the solid foundation on which the therapeutic alliance is based (Tryon and Winograd 2002).Of course not all clients can easily articulate their aspirations and not all their ambitions will be realistically achievable but upfront negotiation is the only place to start even if initial plans need subsequent revision. Tracking progress. Rather than rely exclusively on their clinical

judgment therapists are encouraged to use some brief form of tracking measure with which they can solicit feedback from clients about the effectiveness of their efforts (Lambert 2010). While most of the evidence that supports the collection of this “practice-based evidence” relates to symptomatic improvement there is also a sound theoretical justification for soliciting feedback on clients’ experience of individual therapy sessions (Duncan et al 2004).A recent development of this principle, the therapy personalization form (Bowens and Cooper 2012) provides twenty constructs against which clients can rate the fit of the treatment they receive to their individual needs and preferences Idiographic measurement. If treatment is to be tailored to the unique characteristics of the individual it follows that whatever measure is employed to assess progress should also be personally designed to match that person’s circumstances. There is a long tradition of idiographic single-case research in psychology on which clinicians can draw (Haynes et al 2009) as well as a few pragmatic quick fixes that have evolved from that tradition which might appeal to the time-pressed practitioner (Green 2015) Careful interpretation of results. Idiographic measures by their very nature do not provide normative data against which to compare a client’s progress so judgments about whether treatment goals have been achieved require careful consideration and, by preference, triangulation against more than one form of evidence. As if that challenge were not enough the next challenge of working out whether any movement, for good or ill, can be attributed to therapy is even more fraught with risk (Lilenfeld et al 2014).No one ever suggested that measuring change was easy (Cronbach and Furby1970).

About the presenter David Green qualified as a clinical psychologist in 1977 and his subsequent therapeutic work has been predominantly with young people and their families. He was Clinical Director of the Doctoral Training Programme at the University of Leeds UK from 1988 to 2010. His own doctorate awarded in 1977 was entitled “Investigating the Core Skills of Clinical Supervision: A Qualitative Analysis” and he has published a number of papers and book chapters relating to clinical supervision. His theoretical affiliations are primarily to Personal Construct Theory and



Systemic family therapy, but he will happily pinch a decent idea from anywhere. David has also co-written two books: The Child Within. Taking the Young Person’s Perspective by Applying Personal Construct Psychology (2007) with Richard Butler Maximising the Benefits of Psychotherapy. A Practice-based Evidence Approach (2012) with Gary Latchford He currently has a part-time clinical position in the Occupational Health service of Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust and remains an honorary senior lecturer at the University of Leeds. In his independent practice David undertakes a range of training and legal commissions.
