- Summary:
- Resistance to treatment can often manifest as clients keeping secrets, minimizing their disclosures around significant clinical issues, and even occasionally lying. Clients' secrets and lies inevitably affect the process of psychotherapy and, unfortunately, therapists tend not to detect them as they occur. In this video, Dr. Barry Farber will discuss the phenomenon of secrets and lies in therapy and demonstrate how he handles such resistance. Using illustrative clips from the demonstration session, Dr. Barry Farber will discuss ways therapists can recognize and monitor client avoidance and dishonesty, understand the factors that inhibit or facilitate honest disclosure, determine when to accept and when to challenge their clients' efforts to stay hidden, and learn to work with the clinical consequences of these behaviors when they occur. This video features clients portrayed by actors based on actual case materials
