from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Birger Dulz (* 1952 in Hamburg ) is a German psychiatrist and psychotherapist .

Career

After attending the Bondenwald grammar school in Hamburg, Dulz studied chemistry at the University of Hamburg from 1972 to 1977 . In 1976 Dulz began studying medicine at the University of Hamburg, which he completed in 1982 with a medical exam and a license to practice medicine . From 1983 to 1987 Dulz worked as an assistant doctor at the Ochsenzoll General Hospital . From 1987 to 1989 he was an assistant doctor in the neurological department of the General Hospital Barmbek, today's Asklepios Klinik Barmbek . Then Dulz returned to the General Hospital Ochsenzoll in 1989 as an assistant doctor, became a specialist in psychiatry in 1990 and, from 1991, a senior physician . As such, Dulz set up a ward for patients with borderline personality disorder . The psychotherapeutic concept was based on Otto Kernberg 's transfer-focused psychotherapy (Transfer-Focused-Psychotherapy, TFP). Since 2006 Dulz has been the chief physician of the clinic for personality and trauma-related disorders within the Asklepios Clinic North, which also includes a ward for crisis intervention for young adults and a day clinic.

Scientific positions

Dulz received his doctorate in medicine from the University of Hamburg in 1994. The dissertation is entitled: Personality structure and drug abuse among nursing staff. In his research on personality disorders, Dulz advocates, among other things, the theses that fear, and not anger, is the central affect of borderline disease, as well as that the common clinical diagnostic systems hardly do justice to the comorbidity rates in personality disorders . With regard to the goals of psychotherapy, Dulz assumes that eliminating symptoms such as suicidality and self-harming behavior is usually not a major problem; On the other hand, it is difficult to achieve satisfaction in (love) relationships: if this does not succeed, many patients are largely symptom-free after their therapy, but still do not have sufficient life satisfaction.

Further commitment
