- Short Description:
- This workshop explores how rigid, self-reinforcing behavioral patterns—“games without end”—can be disrupted through meta-level interventions. Drawing on Bateson’s systems theory and Erickson’s clinical methods, the discussion covers strategies like benevolent sabotage, paradox, and behavior prescriptions that shift entrenched dynamics. Practical examples include work with perfectionism, sexual disconnection, and resistant teens. The role of language, suggestion, and therapeutic relationship are central themes throughout.
