$23.79   $9 – Language in Couples Therapy – Christine A Padesky

At each moment in therapy, we can choose to help couples deconstruct their problems or we can help them to construct new possibilities. Goals and therapy processes evolve differently depending on our focus. While each approach has benefits, a life role-play demonstration shows the added advantages of using constructive language, especially with a couple who sees change as hopeless.

• Listen to how Dr. Padesky works with a couple who have longstanding problems of intimacy

• Hear how she elicits a possibility dream to revitalize hope and spark creative solutions
