Transformational Chairwork: Using Psychotherapeutic Dialogues in
Clinical Practice is an exposition of the art and science of
Chairwork. It is also a practical handbook for using the Chairwork
method effectively with a wide range of clinical problems.
Originally created by Dr. Jacob Moreno in the 1950s and then
further developed by Dr. Fritz Perls in the 1960s, Chairwork has
been embraced and re-envisioned by therapists from cognitive,
behavioral, existential, Jungian, experiential, psychodynamic, and
integrative perspectives. Transformational Chairwork builds on this
rich and creative legacy and provides a model that is both
integrative and trans-theoretical. The book familiarizes clinicians
with essential dialogue strategies and empowers them to create
therapeutic encounters and re-enactments. Chairwork interventions
can be broadly organized along the lines of external and internal
dialogues. The external dialogues can be used to help patients work
though grief and loss, heal from interpersonal abuse and trauma,
manage difficult relationships, and develop and strengthen their
assertive voice. The internal dialogues in turn focus on resolving
inner conflicts, combatting the negative impact of the inner critic
and the experience of self-hatred, working with dreams and
nightmares, and expanding the self through polarity work. Using
both internal and external strategies, this book explores how
Chairwork dialogues can be a powerful intervention when working
with addictions, social oppression, medical issues, and psychosis.
This is done through the use of compelling clinical examples and
scripts that can be read, studied, and enacted. Chairwork's central
emphasis is helping patients express each of their voices as
distinctly and as forcefully as possible. The book concludes with a
review of the deepening technique-the strategies that therapists
can use to help facilitate clarity and existential ownership.
