Overview
Some therapists achieve significantly better outcomes than their peers, even using the same model. Barry Duncan has spent decades researching therapeutic change—what works in therapy--and importantly, what makes one therapist better than another. Through research and a degree of detective work he has established which factors contribute to superior performance in therapy – and it is not what you might first think. In this rapid-fire workshop, Barry describes three things you can do immediately to join the ranks of 'Great Therapists.' Barry will also introduce the Partners for Change Outcome Management System (PCOMS), a designated evidence-based practice that provides a clear way to monitor and accelerate your development as a therapist while significantly improving your outcomes. Beyond current fads and the love affair with model and technique, this workshop will show you how to proactively attend to and accelerate your development, enhance the factors that account for change psychotherapy, and stay vitally involved in the work that you love.
