- Short Description:
- Explore the therapeutic power of asking clients to act “as if” things were already different. Drawing from Hans Vaihinger’s classic The Philosophy of As If, Watzlawick demonstrates how small, paradoxical interventions can help clients shift rigid patterns and construct more adaptive realities. Through case examples—including chronic pain, phobias, and anxiety—he illustrates how subtle behavior prescriptions and indirect language can bypass resistance and spark lasting change.
