Gestalt Australia and New Zealand
This interactive presentation is intended to:
• Explore and refine the concept of “self-disclosure” in the clinical setting, including a review of the many different ways therapist self-disclosure can occur and the distinction between “immediacy” and “intentional therapist self-disclosure”;
• Discuss how both intentional therapist self-disclosure and non-disclosure may be helpful and counter-productive in any situation;
• Review self-disclosure from the perspective of interpersonal neurobiology; and
• Consider evidenced-based research on how to practice intentional self-disclosure effectively and ethically.
