"In this training video, Bill O'Hanlon demonstrates a Solution-Oriented approach to family therapy with a nontraditional family. Pam is a woman in her thirties who lives at home with her retired father, Adrian, and her working mother, Judy. Adrian and Judy are fed up with the way Pam always slams doors, mumbles, and walks away when they ask her questions or tell her what to do. As O'Hanlon warmly engages and gently challenges each family member, he helps them improve their communication by shining a light on their habitual interactional patterns, thus enabling them to begin to relate to each other more effectively. You will learn key aspects of Solution-Oriented Therapy, such as attending primarily to the present and future; acknowledging feelings; the three key components of change; and focusing on exceptions and possibilities. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions."
