21 Contact Hours! 

Most of us who practice therapy know that any real and lasting change that occurs as a result of therapy has much more to do with a deep internal shift in the interlocking planes of the psyche, than it does with mere behavior.  But how does the therapist access that level of the psyche?  In order to do that, we have to assist our clients in accessing their own authenticity, as well as the identifications that present as a barriers to authenticity.  This home study (for 21 Contact Hours) offers the therapist a practical, experiential model for assisting the client in finding and beginning to live out of the Authentic Self.  Through this study, the therapist will learn to define the Authentic Self as the primary healing agent of the therapy endeavor.  Further, by walking through the actual experiential exercises, the therapist will learn how to teach the client to first access, then depend upon, and begin to live out the Authentic Self.   The text is a self-help book that your clients may use in therapy as homework.  The therapist may work the exercises in the book in order to understand how the work puts the client in touch with both the roles and the Authentic Self.  Understanding the concepts of the book and the dynamics of finding and living the Authentic Self will assist you, as the therapist, in assisting your client in his/her journey.
