Universals and Applications of Satir Tools & Process
Presented by Stephen Buckbee, Dan Doyle, Michael Dupont

B2

Time:   August 4, Monday, 9 am - 12 pm

 

Presentation Description: 

BDD (Buckbee/Doyle/Dupont) has been a team for 19 years training human service providers and others about the power of positive regard and the process of change. We work with care givers in crisis response situations, people in juvenile justice detention facilities, staff of emergency rooms dealing with violent people, teachers and parents. We will introduce, explore and demonstrate the many tools Satir used in her work to teach her ideas: humor, meditation, triads, sculpting, temperature reading and illustrating metaphors.

 

Objectives:

  • Participants will hear and experience live examples of various Satir tools.

  • Participants will experience the idea of observer, listener and communicator in a triad and how this generalizes to human systems during communications.

  • Participants will have an understanding of the use of metaphors as they relate to teaching universals. All cultures have a story.

  • Participants will enjoy a view of systems using ropes and stories
