Description

Description:

The Culturally Sensitive Strength-Based Strategic Therapy method was developed to integrate various principles founded by the Mental Research Institute (MRI) and Jay Haley’s Strategic Therapy approach as well as other methods to address these issues. In this workshop, guidelines will be presented for learning the principles of Culturally Sensitive Strength-Based Strategic Therapy. There will be an emphasis on effective strategies in working within the cultural context of the client and how this is critical to successful therapy. A structure will be presented for organizing the specific tasks and skills involved in different aspects of the method including activating the client’s strengths. Case examples, some on video recordings, will illustrate many innovative brief therapy techniques.

Educational Objectives:

  1. Describe the basic principles of Culturally Sensitive Strength-Based Strategic Therapy (CSSBS).
  2. Describe how to work within a client’s unique cultural context.
  3. Describe how to activate the client’s strengths and use these strengths to help the client solve the presenting problems.
