Guided Discovery
Leading & Following
This audio program was edited in 2011 and is
consistent with current Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) standards
of treatment.
Many therapists embrace the
philosophy of guided discovery yet are uncertain how to proceed and
sometimes confused about what it is. In this clinically oriented
cognitive behavior therapy training workshop, Padesky differentiates
the term Socratic Questioning from Socratic Dialogue and points out
that the key is not clever questioning but rather an interactive
dialogue that produces client discovery and understanding.
Hear live clinical demonstrations
of the interactive 4 stage process of Socratic Dialogue. Padesky
shows how the four stages help clients and therapists develop
essential qualities necessary for effective learning: curiosity,
neutrality, risk taking and a keen interest in the unexpected.
Padesky conducts extended live
clinical demonstrations which include “on-the-spot” commentary on
what can be learned when guided discovery does not lead to a change
in beliefs.
Guidelines are provided for the
types and varieties of questions to ask as well as the rationale for
and importance of written summaries.
Padesky clarifies and reviews the
3 levels of thought cognitive behavior therapists use and then
identifies the specific Guided Discovery methods best fitted for
each. Socratic Dialogue is only one form of Guided Discovery.
Padesky also describes other forms of Guided Discovery such as the 7
column thought record, role plays, imagery, behavioral experiments,
the continuum, and core belief logs. The theory and practice of
these methods are illustrated through clinical examples.
The workshop concludes with a
review of deconstructive versus constructive language, their
applications and differences.
Learn how to ask relevant
questions and then follow what your client says in a back and forth
guided discovery process.
Note: This 2 disc set
is a duplicate of our earlier 3 disc set which had only time tracks.
The difference is that the tracks have been edited, combined and
titled for ease of use which allowed us to produce it with 2 discs
instead of 3. The program information in this reformatted 2 disc set
is identical to the earlier release.
