IC04 Short Course 10 - Brief Healing of Relationships Through Labor, Love and Laughter - Patricia Davis, MA

Description:

The main root cause of mental illness is relationships which are not working effectively. Violence, abuse, injustice, neglect and power struggles lead to most individuals' symptoms. This workshop will teach how to change and heal individuals by using their families, no matter how family is defined, to achieve a successful therapy in a brief time period. Attendees will learn specific Ericksonian strategies and healing rituals to which Dr. Erickson would give a "thumbs-up."

Educational Objectives:

1. To describe why using "family" is the most effective method for helping people to make life changes.
2. To list three rituals for healing the family wounds which produce mental illness.
