Description

Description:

"Paradox" is a frequently used term, but less frequently understood and effectively used in brief therapy. This dynamic and light-hearted presentation will borrow Weber's widely accepted construct of Just Noticeable Difference to make the case for Erickson's "tipping the first domino" with pattern analysis and paradoxical intervention. This approach to psychotherapy will be demonstrated and discussed using case examples from the presenter and the participants.

Educational Objectives:

  1. To describe three types of paradoxical interventions.
  2. To list five modalities of pattern intervention used to stimulate Just Noticeable Differences.
