Impact therapy is a creative and interactive approach that respects the different channels by which a client processes information to achieve growth and change. This book describes multisensory methods and tools to integrate therapist-client exchanges on verbal, visual, and kinesthetic levels.
Impact Techniques for Therapists teaches the basic principles of Impact Therapy, first developed by Ed Jacobs in 1992. Drawing heavily on the work of Milton Erickson, this form of therapy uses a creative and interactive approach to counselling that involves all senses in the therapeutic process. These innovative, multisensory techniques incorporate therapist-client exchanges not only on verbal but also on visual and kinesthetic levels, thereby increasing the efficacy of the intervention.
Accompanied by a conversational tone and vivid artwork, Beaulieu presents concrete examples of props and movements that can be introduced into therapy and thoroughly illustrates their different uses. Originally written and published in French as a handbook for therapists, Dr. Beaulieuβs formative work is now available in a new English edition, featuring a more encompassing introduction as well as updated case examples. The model set forth in this book can be integrated easily and seamlessly into the practice of a wide variety of mental health professionals seeking to discover new and innovative developments in brief therapy.
