Para este video de una hora, buscamos dentro del archivo Erickson entre 1973 y 1978, dentro de los seminarios didácticos de Milton Erickson. Erickson condujo estos seminarios didácticos en la comodidad e intimidad de su propio hogar. En este video, encontramos tres casos- cada uno manejando principalmente un trauma.

Erickson demuestra como tomar información “extraña” provista por el cliente; comprender el contexto de forma relevante al problema del cliente, y perspicazmente, extrapola el verdadero significado para tener un efecto terapéutico.
