Spring into Summer Teleconference Series: Registration is Open
April 14th, 2008 | Email this to your FriendsGoodTherapy.org is pleased to announce that registration is open for the first event in our Spring into Summer Teleconference Series. In our first workshop, which is Free for GoodTherapy.org Members, we are honored to have Stephen R. Lankton, MSW, DAHB, Executive Director of the Phoenix Institute of Eriksonian Therapy. Stephen will be presenting a 75-minute workshop called “Psychological Resources, Personal Experience, and Social Relations”
Stephen, in describing this presentation writes, “Milton Erickson taught that symptoms were a breakdown of relations between people. Looking at personal problems or family problems through this lens it is relatively easy to recognize the required experiential resources that individuals need to correct most both interpersonal and personal problems. Therapy can concentrate on helping clients acquire these experiences and help clients learn to use them systematically and appropriately. This workshop will teach three fundamental techniques that rely upon this observation and which are applicable to most therapy situations. Two primary protocols are that of ideomotor revification and the other is self-image thinking. There are methods of building needed and desired resources, generalizing the resources to specific interpersonal situations. The third protocol for resource retrieval I call ‘putting joy in your heart’ – it is literally an exercise to heighten an awareness of grounded positive centeredness. ”
