Description

Description:

Participants will learn the insights that are presented in my most recent manuscript, Feeling Good about Writing (forward by Albert Ellis, PhD), which is the first book to apply the main principles of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavior Therapy to writing blocks and the process of creative and nonfiction. We will also discuss the application to other creative endeavors and learn how to develop beliefs which empower, as opposed to defeating, creative processes.

Educational Objectives:

  1. To identify the beliefs which sabotage writing and other creative processes.
  2. To describe three ways to replace negative beliefs with empowering beliefs.
