Description:

The language a therapist uses to conceptualize and treat a problem determines whether or not that problem can be resolved effectively. Plato’s story of the cave, where the inhabitants see only shadows, is a useful metaphor for how the language of therapy can generate either confusion or clarity. This workshop will teach a method of effectively treating severe problems of children and adolescents, using an invariant opening question, strategic dialogue and metaphorical techniques.

Educational Objectives:

1. To describe how to interpret child and adolescent problems as behavioral metaphors.
2. To describe the use of the strategically worked opening question that opens up a child or adolescent’s problem to brief, effective resolution.
