Paradoxical interventions are often described as 'amazing' and ‘miraculous’. The method is best known for 'prescribing the symptom' and 'positive re-framing'. Although particularly successful with the treatment resistant client, its underlying mechanism remained a mystery! This book offers a concise and innovative theory to explain the 'method behind the madness'. In addition, Dr. Kaplan clarifies the difference between paradoxical interventions and its 'evil twin' - reverse psychology. In so doing, he offers insights that turn conventional wisdom upside-down.
