About the Course

Strategic/interactional therapies attempt to identify the client’s strengths and actively create personal and environmental situations where success can be achieved. In these therapies, the focus is on the individual’s strengths rather than on pathology, the relationship to the therapist is essential, and
interventions are based on client self determination with the community serving as a resource rather than an obstacle. This course describes the dynamics of strategic/interactional therapies

This course is based on the reading-based online article, Chapter 5: Brief Strategic Interactional Therapies from Brief Interventions and Brief Therapies for Substance Abuse created by Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) in 2012.
