Description
Description:
This address will review the long-held concept of the client seen as a passive source of information and receptacle for therapist feedback. Dr. Bugental will propose an amendment to this view which makes more use of the client’s own conscious powers.
Educational Objectives:
- To name four basic assumptions about how psychotherapy produces significant life changes.
- To describe how to transfer attention to client self-exploration.
