Description

Description:

Adlerian psychotherapy is an effective brief therapy model that integrates from many other approaches. Adler’s ideas highlight the importance of not only understanding the individual but the social context. This approach emphasizes working from a multi-cultural orientation and highlights personal responsibility. This approach uses a four-step process: Engagement, Assessment, Insight, and Reorientation. The focus of the treatment is positive as the therapist uses encouragement strategies to help the client identify their assets and strengths. DVD examples of actual sessions will be used to highlight the process and demonstrate how short-term change is possible with this approach.

Educational Objectives:

  1. Understand the key components of Brief Adlerian Psychotherapy.
  2. Able to use encouragement to empower clients and increase hope and awareness of strengths.
