Evolution of Psychotherapy 2017

Held December 13-17, 2017 in Anaheim, CA

The Milton H. Erickson Foundation organized the first Evolution of Psychotherapy Conference in 1985 in Phoenix. It was hailed as a landmark conference in the history of psychotherapy. Faculty included Beck, the late Bruno Bettleheim, the late Murray Bowen, Ellis, M. Goulding, the late Robert Goulding, Haley, the late Ronald D. Laing, Lazarus, Madanes, Marmor, Masterson, the late Rollo May, Minuchin, Moreno, E. Polster, the late Miriam Polster, the late Carl Rogers, Rossi, the late Virginia Satir, Szasz, Watzlawick, the late Carl Whitaker, the late Lewis Walberg, the late Joseph Wolpe and Zeig.

The Evolution of Psychotherapy Conference has been, since 1985, an international forum for masters in the field to meet, interact, and discuss a wide range of topics, including their current work and latest research, as well as the future of psychotherapy. The Conference was devised to provide an opportunity for leaders in the field of psychotherapy to present and interact on the topic of "The Evolution of Psychotherapy" by discussing the evolution of their approach to psychotherapy and the evolution of psychotherapy in general.

The Evolution Conference has become iconic, and part of the lore of psychotherapy. It is the largest Conference ever held solely on the topic of psychotherapy.

Short Description:
Chronic frustrations in adult significant relationships that are attended with intense negative emotions are rooted in unmet childhood needs. Identifying these needs helps partners become empathic with each other and also understand their own obsessive behavior. This demonstration will show clinicians how to identify early caretaker patterns, the unmet needs that result from them, the defense patterns used to cope with them and a process that will help address these needs as they show up in everyday life.

Short Description:
Hypnosis is a vehicle for delivering ideas and/or promoting meaningful experiential learning. Hypnosis itself isn't what cures people. Rather, it's what happens during hypnosis that can make a positive difference, especially when applied to empower people to discover and use their innate resources. In this demonstration, the merits of hypnosis as a tool of therapeutic empowerment will be highlighted.

Short Description:
The session shown is of an unedited live consultation where the previous withdrawn male partner is now accessible and the therapist works with the inability of the female partner to trust, reach and engage with her mate. The session explicitly shows how the therapist works with blocks to the creation of key new responses and shapes bonding moments. This is a classic illustration of Stage 2 EFT in action and shows the moment to moment creation of secure connection. Therapist interventions will be outlined and discussed.

Short Description:
Psychological flexibility is one of the most studied and supported set of mediational processes in clinical intervention science. In this demonstration I will explain and then demonstrate how a focus on evidence-based flexibility processes in therapy can free clinicians from the linear march of protocol-based approaches, and foster instead a vital dance of creative facilitation of change, played out in the moment to moment context of an empowering therapeutic relationship that is nevertheless thoroughly evidence-based.
