- Short Description:
- Wilson presents a strategic, persuasive model for treating OCD, integrating principles from MRI brief therapy and Ericksonian hypnosis. His approach helps clients dismantle dysfunctional beliefs by introducing a paradoxical frame of reference, treating obsessions as irrelevant noise, and creating structured rules to bypass overthinking. Techniques include modifying rituals, using timers, postponing obsessions, and adding consequences to reinforce practice. With a focus on mindfulness, collaboration, and generating uncertainty, this method shifts clients from avoidance to empowered action.

The session concludes with targeted homework to reinforce these skills and support long-term change.

- Dec 07, 2006
- Short Description:
- There are six core personality adaptations that form the basic building blocks of personality. These are schizoid, paranoid, antisocial, passive-aggressive, obsessive-compulsive and histrionic. Each of these has a specific way (feeling, thinking, or behavior) of making contact with the world, a target area for growth and change, and a trap area where the person has the greatest defenses. By knowing this information, the therapist can quickly establish rapport, target interventions to the area that will produce the greatest change, and avoid getting trapped in the client's defenses. This workshop will look at these six core adaptations, how they develop, and how to work most effectively with each one.

Clients are encouraged to reframe their relationship with anxiety, treat symptoms as opportunities, and seek out discomfort to build resilience. Key techniques include cognitive restructuring, exposure, and distinguishing between signal and noise in worries. Rather than avoiding fear, clients learn to play the "anxiety disorders game"—changing mindset, embracing uncertainty, and expanding their options for handling distress.
