Jaakko Seikkula: Psychosis is not an illness but a survival strategy in extreme stress

The Person of the Therapist in Family Therapy Practice: about the therapeutic process, the therapist’s experiences and the therapist’s inner conversation.

Author: Peter Rober

Annotation: Psychotherapy research shows that -in individual therapy as in family therapy- some therapists are more effective than others. This highlights the importance of the person of the therapist.  The focus of this workshop is on the person of the therapist in the present moment of the therapy session.  The person of the therapist is crucial in the responsive attunement with the family members.  It is the core of the complex therapeutic alliance that is characteristic for family therapy.  The person of the therapist is also crucial in listening and being empathic: the therapist has to listen with his/her ears, eyes and heart and he/she has to be authentically moved by the family members’ stories.  We will reflect on ways in which the person of the therapist can contribute to the effectivity of the therapeutic process.
