Session 9: To Imagine Accurately: The Fundamental Problem of Psychotherapy/Parallels Evolution (Aug 7-11)
Dr. Gustafson has identified five crucial dynamics that are at the center of brief psychotherapy. Each dynamic is important to conceptualize because these interactions can govern whether the psychotherapy process improves the patient’s situation or makes matters worse. Each morning will focus on one of these five concepts. Participants will then study and discuss two cases each day after viewing videos from Dr. Gustafson’s Brief Psychotherapy Clinic.
Tuesday To anticipate you are one or two steps from the catastrophe point, the second crucial dynamic
Wednesday To get the dream reading of the whole situation, the third crucial dynamic
Thursday Not to be eaten by ideas, the fourth crucial dynamic
Friday To open and to close accurately, the fifth crucial dynamic
