• Archive: Total sizes: - include: Topic Areas:Psychotherapy | WorkshopCategory:Brief Therapy Conference | Brief Therapy Conference 2010Faculty:Stephen Gilligan, PhDDuration:2:42:29Format:Audio OnlyOriginal Program Date :Dec 10, 2010 Description Description: The Generative Self approach emphasizes how the state of consciousness in which an experiential challenge is held determines whether a problem or solution develops.

• The model identifies three types of mind—Somatic, Cognitive, and Field—and how each mind can be operating at a Primitive, Ego, or Generative Level.

• We will see how a problem degrades a person’s consciousness level so that change is impossible, and how that low-level state can be improved to a Generative level, so that the problematic experience either spontaneously changes or is more easily engaged.

• Numerous practical techniques and clinical examples will be offered.

• Educational Objectives: List three techniques for developing higher states of consciousness in a psychotherapy session.
