- Glasser and Watzlawick explore how small shifts in attitude and approach can lead to big changes in therapy.

Watzlawick adds stories of paradox and surprise, reminding us that change often comes when we least expect it...and that the therapist's stance can make all the difference.

- 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.

- Short Description:
- This workshop spotlights directive therapy—an action-driven approach where therapists take an active role in guiding change. Instead of passively listening, practitioners assign tasks, offer strategic advice, and use creative interventions like ordeals to spark progress. With real-life cases ranging from relationship struggles to bulimia and sexual masochism, the session shows how targeted directives lead to quick, meaningful results. Topics include shifting dynamics in couples therapy, motivating resistant clients, and making brief therapy both effective and impactful—all while maintaining clear boundaries and professional focus.
