[Audio] CC11 Workshop 06 – Magical Moments in Couples Therapy – Jette Simon

Description:

Knowing how to elicit positive emotion even in couples steeped in intensely negative interactions is the key to providing the motivation for change. In this workshop, we’ll explore a variety of ways for creating “magical moments” in the therapy hour that offer a new template for couples, otherwise trapped in dysfunction, to allay repetitive cycles. You’ll learn how to use tools like focusing, sentence stems, doubling and directives to invite couples into new kinds of experience of connection. We’ll also examine the neurobiological principles that enable partners to expect and attract more positive experiences from each other.

Educational Objectives:

1. Learn how to use sentence stems that deepens connection.
2. Learn how to create felt corrective experiences in the now.
