- Short Description:
- Minuchin reflects on how family therapy has evolved alongside shifting political and cultural tides. He contrasts early structural models with later constructivist approaches, noting how each reflects assumptions about power, class, and expertise. Using a case of a mother navigating child welfare systems, he illustrates the complexities of working with underserved families and calls for culturally responsive, socially aware interventions that don’t ignore systemic constraints.

- Short Description:
- The field of psychotherapy is moving toward an integrative approach, both in terms of theory and practice. Meichenbaum will discuss how Cognitive-Behavior Modification attempts to integrate, on the one hand, the clinical concerns of psychodynamic and interpersonal/systems approaches with the technology of behavior therapy on the other hand. He will trace the history of Cognitive-Behavior Modification and examine its future directions. Common clinical treatment issues, such as client resistance, patient noncompliance, and treatment nonadherence that all psychotherapists face will also be considered.

- Watzlawick challenges fixed definitions of mental health, arguing that reality is socially constructed rather than objectively given. Drawing on examples from Freud, Rosenhan, and Margaret Mead, he critiques traditional norms and advocates for a constructivist approach to therapy—one grounded in hope, respect, and the reframing of perception to reduce suffering.

- Short Description:
- We shall discuss one of the most frequent family processes leading to adolescent psychosis. As a direct consequence of the couple's hidden relational malaise, one of the two parents pseudo-privileges the child over the spouse and instrumentally brings him/her up as the opposite of the spouse in every way. The involuntary cheating about feelings ("imbroglio of affections") enhances the possibility of a psychotic breakdown.
