Is our life based on fact or fiction? What is the difference? Based on Hans Vaihinger’s work on fictions, Adler spoke of “fictions” and their role in our lives and in therapy. Are fictions useful or useless? Do they help us live better lives or do they lead us down the road of destruction? Is it possible to live life without fictions? Is it desirable to live our life without fictions? These are issues that will be discussed in this workshop along with some suggestions on how to deal with fictions in the therapy process. Objectives: Define fictions using Vaihinger’s framework for fictions Recognize the use of fictions in our daily lives Identify ways that fictions are positive or useful Identify ways that fictions are destructive or useless Describe applications to individual and group therapy This workshop is led by John F. Newbauer, Ed.D., H.S.P.P..
