- Short Description:
- This session introduces the core principles of MRI’s brief therapy model, focusing on how small, specific behavioral interventions can disrupt entrenched patterns and promote change. Drawing on videotaped case material, the presentation explores direct prescriptions, paradoxical strategies, and positive reframing. Through clinical examples—ranging from perfectionism to family conflict—the session shows how symptoms often serve as solutions to deeper issues, and how shifting perspective can open new paths forward.
