10 WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7, :00-8:15 AM REGISTRATION 8:00-8:30 AM CONVOCATION 8:30-9:30 AM KEYNOTE ADDRESS The Emperor s New Clothes Hunter Patch Adams, M.D. So many horrible things are parading around in fancy clothes and our profession is remarkably silent. Things on this planet are at a medical emergency, threatening extinction, and the medical profession is too low key. Patch wants to spark a role for our profession to sense and change. Mental illness may be a normal response to this disaster - not requiring medication, rather calling for action to create healthy contexts. 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM WORKSHOPS Workshop 1 Rational Emotive Behavior Relationship Therapy Albert Ellis, Ph.D. Dr. Ellis will present cognitive, emotional, and behavioral techniques to help men and women in their sex, love and marital relationships. He also will include therapy helping their interpersonal relationships in work situations. Workshop 2 Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy of Personality Disorders (Disorders of the Self) James Masterson, M.D. The therapeutic alliance is described along with transference and transference acting-out. The therapeutic task is defined - i.e., to help the patient convert transference acting-out to therapeutic alliance and transference through appropriate interventions. The psychotherapy of each of the disorders (Borderline, Narcissistic and Schizoid) is described in terms of indications, therapeutic technique and goals. Clinical examples will be given. Two videotapes of psychotherapy will be presented - one with a Borderline patient and the other with a Narcissistic disorder. Countertransference problems are described. Workshop 3 Therapeutic Pathways to Restoring Connectedness Erving Polster, Ph.D. Within the enormous complexity of human experience, the reflex to connectedness rescues the person from fragmentation. Connectedness may be therapeutically restored along four pathways: moment to moment, person to person, event to event and one part of the person to the other parts. Dr. Polster will discuss and demonstrate how to do this. Workshop 4 Imago Relationship Therapy: A Couples Therapy Based on the Relational Paradigm - I Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. Imago is couple s therapy that posits that all healing is relational. The core couples issue is ruptured connection, replicating the rupture of connection in childhood. This rupture and the defenses against it influence marital choice and the quality of the marital relationship. The core therapeutic challenge is to help couples restore and maintain connection. To that end, Imago therapists facilitate couples to reconnect using a specific dialogical process, which creates emotional safety, in which couples can help heal each other and grow toward wholeness. Workshop 5 Partnering with Clients to Improve the Process and Outcome of Treatment Scott D. Miller, Ph.D. Based on pioneering research into the curative factors associated with effective clinical work across treatment approaches and disciplines, participants will learn how to partner with clients to tailor treatment for maximum effect and efficiency. Miller also will present a simple, valid and reliable method for maximizing the effectiveness and efficiency of treatment based on client feedback about the process and outcome of treatment.

Group and individual demonstrations with volunteers from the audience with illustrate this. Workshop 7 The and of Perspective Taking Ken Wilber and Bert Parlee, Ph.D. This workshop is an exploration of the psycho-dynamics of projection, introjection and integration of shadow materials in both their dark and golden manifestations. An experiential approach. Workshop 8 EMDR and Adaptive Information Processing: Clinical Applications and Case Conceptualization Francine Shapiro, Ph.D. EMDR is guided by the Adaptive Information Processing paradigm, which differentiates it from other forms of psychotherapy.

Workshop 10 Showing How Counselors Can Move to a New Leadership Role in Delivering Mental Health Separate from DSM-IV Diagnoses and Brain Drugs William Glasser, M.D. Dr. Glasser has moved away from the DSM-IV and the medical model. He does not believe that any of the mental illnesses diagnosed in the DSM-IV actually exist because none of them are associated with pathology in the brain. By using choice theory he has moved from the medical school model to the public health model to show how counselors can deliver mental health more effectively than psychiatrists are doing now and at a fraction of what we are now spending. Workshop 11 The Basics of Multimodal Therapy and Common Mistakes that Most Psychotherapists Make Arnold Lazarus, Ph.D. and Clifford Lazarus, Ph.D. The BASIC I.D. as a template for assessment and therapy will be outlined, as well as methods unique to Multimodal Therapy such as Bridging and Tracking procedures.

Workshop 12 Imago Relationship Therapy: A Couples Therapy Based on the Relational Paradigm - II Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. Imago is couple s therapy that posits that all healing is relational. The core couples issue is ruptured connection, replicating the rupture of connection in childhood. This rupture and the defenses against it influence marital choice and the quality of the marital relationship. The core therapeutic challenge is to help couples restore and maintain connection. To that end, Imago therapists facilitate couples to reconnect using a specific dialogical process, which creates emotional safety, in which couples can help heal each other and grow toward wholeness. Workshop 13 The Myth of Mental Illness: 45 Years Later Thomas Szasz, M.D. Dr. Szasz will compare and contrast the psychiatric and social scene in the late 1950 s when he wrote The Myth of Mental Illness, with the present psychiatric and social scenes.

Myths and misconceptions about these questions will be discussed. Research findings will be reviewed to derive two checklists. Although checklists are helpful, they are not fully adequate.

This scientific view proposes that empathetic relationships making sense within our life stories, harmonious mental functioning and an integrated brain all mutually reinforce each other. Workshop 26 Cognitive Therapy: Basics and Beyond Judith Beck, Ph.D. In this interactive workshop, the basics of cognitive therapy will be described and demonstrated. How do you conceptualize patients, plan treatment, establish the therapeutic relationship, structure sessions, set an agenda, use basic cognitive and behavioral techniques, facilitate patients doing homework, elicit and respond to feedback, measure progress?

Dr. Cummings was there, working therapeutically with paratroopers in combat, and he has been a psychotherapist and mental health activist in the 60 years since. He wrote the first prepaid psychotherapy insurance benefit in the late 1950s and demonstrated that psychotherapy should be part of all health insurance. he has been in the forefront as an active participant in psychotherapy s achievements, setbacks and hopes for the future. This address will highlight the 60 years of psychotherapy s evolution through the life of one of its leaders. SOA Address 5 Guerrilla Divorce Busting Michele Weiner-Davis, M.S.W. This address will highlight the powerfully pivotal role we play both in and out of our therapy offices when encountering couples whose marriages are teetering on the brink of divorce. A casual but intentional conversation over coffee or at a salon can change the course of people s lives. Learn how.

17 SATURDAY, DECEMBER 10, :10-2:10 PM STATE OF THE ART ADDRESSES, cont. SOA Address 6 Constructing a New Self Christine Padesky, Ph.D. Fifteen years ago, a group of Beckian cognitive therapists (including Padesky) proposed that personality disorders represent adaptive coping strategies linked to personal belief systems rather than permanent psychopathology. Today she describes her cognitive therapy approach to help people construct a new self. These methods offer an intriguing vision for the future of cognitive therapy. 2:30-5:30 PM WORKSHOPS Workshop 27 Positive Psychology and Positive Interventions Martin Seligman, Ph.D. Happiness can be usefully dissolved into the Pleasant Life (Positive Emotions), the Engaged Life, and the Meaningful Life. The mission of Positive Psychology is to understand and build these three lives. Dr. Seligman will describe interventions that raise happiness, so defined, and will detail their effects on depression. Workshop 28 Constructing a New Self (a continuation of the preceding SOA Address) Christine Padesky, Ph.D. Dr. Padesky developed this cognitive therapy approach for work with clients with personality disorders and other chronic and recurrent problems. She will demonstrate how to help clients recognize the benefits of personality change, construct a new system of personality that is desirable to them, and build new beliefs and interpersonal skills that strengthen and sustain a new personality system. Workshop 29 Frontiers of Trauma Treatment Bessel van der Kolk, M.D. Starting with a review of recent studies on the neurobiology of trauma, Dr. van der Kolk will examine the utility of approaches from the fields of hypnosis, body oriented therapies and EMDR, both with research data and videotapes clinical interventions. The integration of these approaches during different stages of treatment will be discussed. Workshop 30 Identity and Evolutionary Change Robert Dilts Identity has to do with such questions as Who am I? ; What are my limits? ; What is my purpose? Clarifying the deep structure of our identity allows us to express ourselves even more fully at the level of our behavioral surface structure. It involves: Finding and clarifying our life s direction; Managing boundaries between self and others; Becoming clear about beliefs that support our identity and those which limit us; Expanding our sense of self; and Incorporating new dimensions of being. Workshop 31 Behavioral Health as Primary Care: Psychotherapy s Future as a Primary Care Profession Nicholas Cummings, Ph.D. and William O Donohue, Ph.D. Several large health systems are now co-locating behavioral care providers (BCPs, primarily psychologists and social workers) in the primary care setting, side by side with primary care physicians (PCPs). Research has already shown when a PCP can walk the patient down the hall to the BCP s office, 90% of patients engage in treatment as opposed to only 10% of referrals today. This presages opportunities for psychotherapists who wish to participate, and this workshop will address how to anticipate, prepare and avoid the pitfalls of a new integrated behavioral/primary care delivery system.

18 SATURDAY, DECEMBER 10, :00-9:00 PM SPECIAL PRESENTATION The Art of Psychotherapy Irvin Yalom, M.D. This presentation will be a discussion of existential psychotherapy and of group psychotherapy drawing especially from Yalom s new teaching novel, The Schopenhauer Cure. Dr. Yalom will discuss the therapist/client relationship from an existential therapy perspective; the practice of existentially oriented psychotherapy using recent clinical cases; the impact of death awareness on the conduct of life; the technique of the group therapist; the selection and preparation of group patients; the relevance of philosophy for therapy; the case for and against clinical philosophy. Dr. Yalom will sign books after his presentation. SUNDAY, DECEMBER 11, :00-9:00 AM STATE OF THE ART ADDRESSES SOA Address 7 Logical Levels of Change Robert Dilts The notion of logical levels refers to the fact that some processes and phenomena are created by the relationships between other processes and phenomena. The function of each level is to synthesize, organize and direct the interactions on the level below it. Changing something on an upper level would necessarily radiate downward, precipitating change on the lower levels. This presentation will cover the six basic levels of therapeutic change: environment, behavior, capabilities, beliefs and values, identity and spiritual. SOA Address 8 The Emergence and Impact of the Relational Paradigm on Therapy Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. For decades, psychotherapy based upon the paradigm of the individual, has focused on the intrapsychic world of the client. The focus in now shifting to the interpersonal, as a result of the appearance of the relational paradigm from the collective unconscious. This shifting of paradigms will challenge and transform the process of diagnosis and therapeutic interventions of all forms of therapy. This address will outline this historical shift and suggest its implications for therapy theory and practice. SOA Address 9 Toward an Interpersonal Neurobiology of Psychotherapy Daniel Siegel, M.D. Interpersonal neurobiology is a way to define mental health and the kinds of social experiences the brain requires to achieve a coherent mind. This interdisciplinary synthesis of science reveals an exciting convergence among research findings that helps us in mental health to explore the interplay among relationships, the mind and the brain. Experience shapes the connections in the brain in ways that we can now understand and harness within psychotherapy to help stimulate the neuronal activation and growth necessary to achieve resilience and emotional well-being. 9:30-11:30 AM WORKSHOPS Workshop 32 Practice with Dreams in Counseling and Therapy James Hillman, Ph.D. Dreaming is a natural human function from early childhood to late maturity. Beginning with Freud and Jung the practice of clinical psychology centered originally on dream analysis. The importance of dreaming has fallen into neglect in most contemporary therapies. This workshop offers practical cues for working with dreams to benefit participants own techniques, self-knowledge and their clients psychic equilibrium. Workshop 33 Imagineering: Helping Clients Find the Path to Change Robert Dilts Imagineering is a term coined by Walt Disney to describe the process he used to form dreams and then turn them into realities. The imagineering process essentially involves creating and evaluating the steps necessary to reach a desired state. It can be applied to help clients find creative solutions to many problems. Workshop 34 A New Leadership Role for Mental Health Professionals William Glasser, M.D. The leadership role in Mental Health has been assumed by psychiatrists who diagnose mental illnesses that do not exist and treat them with potentially harmful brain drugs. Dr. Glasser will explain that mental health separate from mental illness does exist if we could change from the mental illness model to a new public health model based on mental health. This will allow psychotherapists to assume a leadership role they don t have now. Workshop 35 Etiology, Psychopathology, Diagnosis and Treatment Indicators for Severe Personality Disorders Otto Kernberg, M.D. Present day knowledge and leading hypotheses regarding severe personality disorders will be reviewed, and their relationship to clinical characteristics of these patients clarified. A critical review of present classification will be followed by exploration of specific technical approaches to diagnostic interviewing and decision-making regarding specific therapeutic approaches to each patient.

19 SUNDAY, DECEMBER 11, :30-11:30 AM WORKSHOPS, cont. Workshop 36 Growth Games for BEING the Best Therapist Jeffrey Zeig, Ph.D. This playshop will consist experiential clinician development exercises. While it is widely agreed that the person of the therapist is central to patient change, there are limited methods for developing the person of the therapist. Dr. Zeig will present a systemic model that can be easily transfered to make therapy and supervision more powerfully experiential. 9:30-10:30 and 10:30-11:30 AM SESSION X Moral Disengagement in the Perpetration of Inhumanities Albert Bandura, Ph.D. This presentation examines the psychosocial mechanisms by which people selectively disengage moral self-sanctions from inhumane conduct. The moral disengagement may center on redefining inhumane conduct as a benign or socially worthy one by moral justification, sanitizing language and expedient comparison with worse cruelty; disavowal of personal agency in the harm one causes by diffusing or displacement of responsibility; disregarding or minimizing the injurious effects of ones actions and dehumanizing those who are victimized and blaming them for bringing the suffering on themselves. Given the many mechanisms for disengaging moral control at individual and collective levels, civilized life requires, in addition to human personal standard, safeguards built into social systems that uphold compassionate behavior and renounce cruelty. 10:30-11:30 AM CONVERSATION HOUR Self-Efficacy, Moral Disengagement, and Applications of Social Cognitive Theory Designed to Alleviate Some of the Most Urgent Global Problems. Albert Bandura, Ph.D. 12:00 N - 1:00 PM KEYNOTE ADDRESS The Place of Cognitive Therapy Today Aaron Beck, M.D. Dr. Beck will provide a perspective on the evolution and the place of cognitive therapy today. He will compare standard cognitive therapy to newer developments in theory and therapy such as mindfulness, attentional focus, and positive psychology. Dr. Beck also will discuss the role of cognitive approaches to conflict and suffering. 1:00-1:15 PM CLOSING REMARKS Back row (left-right) Bruno Bettleheim, James Masterson, Jeffrey Zeig, Ronald Laing, Ernest Rossi, Erving Polster, Salvador Minuchin, Lewis Wolberg Middle row (left-right) Rollo May, Arnold Lazarus, Judd Marmor, Aaron Beck, Carl Whitaker, Murray Bowen, Thomas Szasz, Paul Watzlawick, Jay Haley, Joseph Wolpe Front row (left-right) Albert Ellis, Mary Goulding, Robert Goulding, Zerka Moreno, Cloé Madanes, Virginia Satir, Miriam Polster, Carl Rogers
