Description
Description:
Conceptually simple, MRI Brief Therapy takes seriously the idea that it is not so much problems in living that bring people into therapy, but ineffective efforts being made to resolve those difficulties that inadvertently exacerbate and perpetuate the problem into irresolvable vicious cycles. Effective brief therapy facilitates clients to Interrupt efforts being made to resolve the problem that inadvertently perpetuate the problem, and in doing so the problem often dissipates on its own. This workshop will use rare video recordings of John Weakland and Richard Fisch, two pioneers of the mode to teach basic components of the approach to achieve effective and efficient brief therapy.
Educational Objectives:
Identify the basic steps of the model:
- What is the complain and How is it a problem?
- Identify the attempted solution (AS) that inadvertently perpetuate the problem.
- Describe basics of reframing and task assignment effective and efficient brief therapy.
