[Audio] IC11 Workshop 28 – Strategic Self-Therapy – John Beahrs

Description:

Personal identity is both heavily defended and reframable.  When accepted as a given, rapport ensues.  Patients are then challenged to define themselves: self-description, value priorities, and goals/perceived roadblocks/plan.  Being held responsible for what is under their sole control minimizes regression, and promotes responsibility and morale.

Educational Objectives:

1. Demonstrate how to heighten personal responsibility and minimize regression.
2. Explain how to challenge patients’ competencies within the limits of safety.
