Description

Description:

Ericksonian psychotherapy emphasizes the utilization of people's resources. When working with children of divorced parents, I focus on strengths and keep in mind the Ericksonian interventions should be brief because children may get tired of being in therapy for a long time. In a case with two children, techniques including the use of toys will be discussed. How to make several brief interventions quickly while utilizing "toy co-therapists" in home assignments, and the combination of conversational trance with tasks will be emphasized. There also will be references to the importance of working with the family system.

Educational Objectives:

  1. Given a case treating children of divorced parents, describe three techniques for creating brief interventions.
  2. To describe two examples of how to use a single exercise simultaneously with two subjects.
