The Residency Program is designed for those colleagues desiring a longer stay at MRI and more interaction with the staff members of the Brief Therapy and the Strategic Therapy Centers. Residents stay for a minimum of one-week and a maximum of several months. We offer residency programs in English and in Spanish.
Part of your training at MRI will include:
- Participation in ongoing clinics by sitting behind the one-way mirror
- Participation of weekly supervision (limited spaces available)
- Watching video taped material of both centers' work, as well as historical materials by Paul Watzlawick, John Weakland, Don Jackson (mostly audio), and Richard Fisch
- Participation in workshops and intensive trainings occurring during your stay
- Shadowing staff to off-site trainings/sessions as they occur (limited times)
