Watch Gestalt child therapist Violet Oaklander in an actual counseling session with a 13-year old boy who has difficulty expressing anger.

Full Description:   

Expert child therapist Dr. Violet Oaklander has a knack for getting her clients to speak honestly and reveal their difficult feelings. In this video she meets with a boy who is angry with his father but unable to express it directly. Watch as she gauges the boy s level of contact throughout the session, and masterfully provides openings for him to show cut-off parts of himself. She then collaborates to develop real-world strategies for ongoing expression of his difficult emotions. Jon Carlson and Don Keat introduce Dr. Oaklander, and facilitate an in-depth discussion of the further impact and uses of the model.

From watching this video, you will:
• Develop an understanding of the key concepts of Gestalt child therapy, including evaluating the child s contact level, and helping the child identify and express emotions.
• Gain insight into Dr. Oaklander s therapy style and how she builds a therapeutic relationship based on the coming together of two equals.
