Description
Description: This extended workshop offers a hands-on look at how compulsive urges form and how they can be softened through precise work with internal experience. Using live demonstrations, it shows how imagery, sensory intensity, and self-image interact to drive behavior, and how small, well-timed shifts can restore choice where clients feel pulled or stuck. The material is practical, content-light, and designed to give therapists tools they can apply immediately across addiction, habit change, and emotional regulation.
Syllabus Description: One of the most important components of addiction is the uncontrollable urge to engage in the addictive behavior – unconscious motivation “run wild.” Participants will learn how to elicit the unconscious perceptual components of this compulsion and use these process variables to eliminate it. A second step redirects attentions more usefully.
Educational Objectives:
- To name the key perceptual elements that make an experience addictive.
- To describe two pure process methods to eliminate a compulsion.
