Description
Postmodern therapy is a radical shift in both the stance of the therapist and in how therapy is conducted. For example: the therapist is the participant/manager of the conversation, not the ?expert.? Language, rather than interactional pattern, is the system; meaning and understanding are achievable through continued efforts; difficulties are constructed in the language system and can be ?dissolved? through language; and change occurs through development of new language. In this course, students will have their assumptions challenged and play an active role in co-creating a postmodern experience of meaning-making in the classroom. Ideas will be practiced both in and out of class, so students are strongly encouraged take this course concurrently with their internship. Includes the fundamental occupational tasks of assessment, case presentation, case collaboration, team membership and client interaction.
