Overview

Ever feel like you’re working too hard with a client and getting nowhere? You don’t need to let your client’s defenses block progress.

For the first time ever, we’re making this collection of 18 skill-building psychotherapy audio studies public. Previously available only via multi-year training programs, this audio course teaches you how to quickly identify and address defenses that can prevent a therapeutic alliance from forming.

How It Works

In this practice-oriented course, you are the therapist asking me scripted questions, and I am your ‘patient’, responding with defenses. You will intervene. Then I will give you a recommended answer and offer some teaching and supervision along the way, reinforcing the intervention technique and theoretical framework.

As we explore numerous examples of each defense, you’ll have ample practice time to more efficiently recognize defenses and intervene immediately. You’ll rapidly improve your assessment and intervention skills and learn to handle problems easily that would have stumped you in the past.
