This study is designed to teach the therapist how to use language to intensify and shorten the therapeutic session. It demonstrates how to use language to elicit precise information, establish and maintain rapport, and to generalize and reframe the content of the client's statements. Our culture has unconsciously taught us that language is a clear descriptive way of presenting ideas and facts. It is almost as if in a common culture that we have all made an agreement with each other that we know what each word represents to each one of us. When we connect these words together into sentences we believe that they mean the same thing to each of us no matter what our past cultural or personal experiences happen to be. General Objectives To gather high quality information. To reconnect the speakers language with the speakers experience. To question the surface structure with appropriate linguistic tools to get to the deeper level of the person's language structure. To understand a person's linguistic representation through three universal processes: deletions, generalizations, distortions. To master the skill of questioning to have a goal or a direction to guide your questioning.
