Changing Perspective - Changing Solutions. Activating Images for Change in Systemic Brief Therapy - Softcover
Synopsis
As today more and more clients suffer from chronic problems, interrupting the vicious cycle of problem-maintaining patterns is increasingly relevant in psychotherapeutic practice. This book introduces a new method for the interruption of these vicious cycles. The presented therapeutic approach is based on Watzlawick et al.'s concept of second-order change, but re-introduces this concept from a 'non-expert' stance: Instead of interrupting the client's unsuccessful attempted solutions through therapeutic expertise, the client's internal images are activated for change. With a discussion of the relevant theoretical concepts and a detailed description of the therapeutic approach, this book is equally interesting for practitioners and researchers. For this book, Ilka R. Hoffmann was awarded the 'Sponsoring Prize of the German Systemic Society 2007'.
