This workshop will present a brief therapy approach, based on the interaction between those involved in the problem, and on the interventions aimed at changing this problematic interaction by motivating the client(s) to behave "as if" the situation were different from the way it is perceived.
This workshop will present cognitive, experiential, and behavioral techniques for helping men and women to realize more of their human potential. There will be special emphasis on personal and work-related male/female relationships and on how to deal with negative reactions to "out of role'' behavior, such as women's assertiveness and men's expressions of intimacy.
