Description

Description:

Therapists often forget how easily stories reach into the hearts of clients, how much they give, teach and heal. This workshop will teach construction of effective therapy stories drawn from each person’s own life experiences and then how to make these stories an active part of  client therapy.

Educational Objectives:

  1. List three components of a psychotherapeutic story.
  2. Create a psychotherapeutic story for a specified situation.
  3. Discuss 3 different ways of presenting a story to a client.
