#291 This workshop will focus on techniques with adolescents that can be adapted for use in groups or family therapy as well. The strategies are designed to create meaningful moments in the therapy process to facilitate strengthening of the therapeutic alliance and emotional engagement that has the potential for healing and transformative changes. The techniques will include drawing, storytelling, play, and symbol variations. These strategies will be described and illustrated with clinical examples. In addition, experiential exercises centered on difficult challenges in engaging resistant adolescents will be interspersed throughout the day. INSTRUCTOR: David A.
