- Short Description:
- Watzlawick explores the “therapy of as if,” showing how behaving as if change is possible can shift a client’s reality. Drawing from philosophy, hypnotherapy, and paradox, he illustrates how small interventions—like self-fulfilling prophecies or shared metaphors—can break unhelpful cycles. Zerka Moreno adds insights from action-based methods, including role reversal and sociodrama, to deepen perspective and foster movement.
