Humanism and constructivism

Any psychotherapeutic approach contains a vision of the human being. This appears to be most clearly through the purpose attributed to the approach considered. The same situations can give rise to different interpretations which depend on the mental tool used by observer, the way in which he builds his reality. 

Certain readings are dehumanizing which consider humans as "sick" machines that it will be a question of repairing. 

A humanist vision will consist in taking into account the fact that, in a natural way, the human being is capable of creativity and, in particular, confronted with difficult situations. Why, faced with certain situations, have the patients we meet not find solutions if not to generate symptoms to signify their mental suffering?  

The objective of therapeutic work will not be centered on symptoms, often qualified today as "diseases", but to allow them to find their lost authrapeutic capacities. This last point will be developed during the meeting.

A causal problem

The complex point of view does not "see" humans, the artefacts they create and the societies in which they move, therefore draws them, only through their couplings, through the different types of interaction which connect indefinitely, vertically (between genetics and history) and horizontally (between disturbances and destruction) ... As it is true that a human does not exist and therefore is descriptible, as it is An element composing of a communicating and relationing "machine", and nothing more. Here, the complex point of view and the systemic point of view are superimposed closely, this is what Jean-Paul Gaillard will try to develop with participants.

The challenges of gender transitions for education professionals

Gender issues, and in particular transidentity, are at the heart of the public debate today, including among mental health professionals. Transidentity is indeed affecting fundamental questions: individual rights, the definition of identity, social norms and the place of the state in the regulation of the body and privacy. Its controversial character is due to the fact that it calls into question our traditional landmarks, while being instrumentalized by opposite political currents. This debate is not limited to the field of sexual minorities, it illustrates a broader confrontation on the way in which Western societies redefine the relationship between identity, rights and social norms in the 21st century. What place can we occupy today in this debate?

Artificial intelligence is not a technological question

We lived in a world regularly fascinated by what is said of AI - "artificial intelligence", so badly named.

There is no artificial "intelligence": there is artificial calculation. Wonderfully effective and useful. But which is only calculation. Ask how it is for, why we want, what do we want to do with our lives, and for the children of our children, are specifically human questions. We will work to refocus the debate on the "AI" around the essential questions that these technologies convey.

The epidemiological and experimental elements in favor of a paradigmatic impasse of the current international psychiatric model accumulate.
The addition of linguistic and dialogical capacities to the semiological capacities of portable and ambient connected objects is likely to allow the exceeding of this dead end. We will examine the major opportunities, and the risks, which are just as much.

Medicalization of existence and de-prescription

Medicalization designates a process by which one comes to define and deal with non-drug problems as medical problems, usually by calling them diseases or disorders.
De-prescribing: De-prescription is a necessary advance for more ethical, sustainable and focused medicine. It is not intended to deny the benefits of drugs, but to restore a balance between pharmacology and other therapeutic approaches. To succeed in this transition, it is imperative to raise awareness among health professionals and the general public about the importance of a reasoned prescription. Only a holistic vision of care, integrating prevention, dialogue and other therapeutic approaches, will make it possible to replace the patient at the heart of medicine and to make it an actor fully aware of his health.

Get out of a linear thought with the strategic systemic diagnosis

Diagnosis is a key step in the therapeutic course, influencing both the treatment and the patient's identity. If the dominant psychiatric model is based on a classification of disorders and a drug approach, it has limits: overdiagnosis, low taking into account the context. The systemic diagnosis offers an interactional and evolving alternative, analyzing the relational loops that maintain the problem. Fast and efficient, it promotes patient involvement. Far from opposing these models, the future lies in their articulation, integrating a systemic reading in psychiatry for more targeted and adapted interventions.

"Get out of a causal way of thinking to accept the logic of emotional regulation "

The founders of the systemic approach allowed us to consider symptoms either with linear causality but with circular causality. However, we remain in a causal way of thinking with the idea that each link in the chain participates in the transactional pattern and that by modifying an answer in the interactions cycle, it is the whole system that will reorganize. Certainly! But this rational logic often comes up against the resistance of patients! And if the change can happen in the secure framework of the family therapy session, the former transactional pattern reappears at home in stress contexts. In order to understand and accept certain behaviors or implicit messages, we propose to think about the logic of emotional regulation with the family. Fullness and acceptance of emotions that are going through us should allow both meta-mumnating on the language of our emotions but also to accept the messages issued by other family members without interpreting them as a conscious intention of communication. The co-regulation of emotions from the therapist can help tend towards this acceptance of body language, revealing the history and subjectivity of each. A clinical sticker will illustrate our words.

"Family consultations in child protection: levers of change"

Professionals who intervene with families followed in child protection are exposed to high levels of individual suffering, relational violence, symptomatology and psychopathology. The impact of representations they can be confronted with, the effects of vicarious mechanisms, the weight of resonances and the influence of repair desires are all pitfalls to think about the complexity of situations, interrelations and systemic issues. In this context, the systemic approach offers precious tools to think of everyone's places in different systems, roles, alliances and counter-alliances, as well as their function in maintaining an often fragile balance. Family consultation measures ordered by the children's judge or entrusted by social assistance to childhood are intended to question and support a dynamic of change vis-à-vis rehearsal processes. Based on the resources and skills of families, it is a question of giving keys to transmit their history and their experience differently. In this communication, we will focus on highlighting, in this framework of judicial constraint, the work of the link and emotions, both objects to be repaired and therapeutic tools.

"The causalist approach to neuro-degenerative diseases: getting out of a largely disseminated postulate"

At the dawn of the demographic explosion of cases of neuro-degenerative diseases, the psycho-educational approach to the helping/helped relationship remains the most used approach around the world. However, our clinical practices make us meet families in a situation of extreme distress for which we should think very different methods of support. Specifically, helping caregivers is a first-line response that meets the support needs for families, a member of which has a neuro-degenerative disease. Thus, there would be on the one hand the class of caregivers, and on the other that of the patients. Both would be suffering and the change in communication of some would result in an improvement in the relationship with others. However, these psycho-educational approaches of the caregiver tend to forget, if not obscure, the premorbid relationships which unite these people within the same family. During this communication, in the form of a systemic tale, we will propose to get out of the causal rider to explore the wide field that opens up to us when we understand the family system with its temporality, skills and creativity.

"Feeling of injustice and management"

Managers who have the feeling of being treated fairly by their business form a managerial community committed to the common goals. Now a research that has been the subject of a recent book published by Dunod editions, "Managers also live injustices" https://www.dunod.com/entreprise-et-economie/managers-aussi-vivent-injustices -12-Recits-Analysis-Par-12-Experts , shows that those responsible are facing many injustices at work. This conference shows how they live and exceed a burn-out, a betrayal of a colleague under performance pressure, a decision of the management not to abandon a product however dangerous, a harassment on the part of his chief during a Installation abroad, a flight of its start-up in artificial intelligence by a partner, manipulation behaviors in a merger-acquisition, discrimination linked to gender and skin color or rejection by his business of his sustainable management practices. We will analyze to what extent these incidents reveal the challenges of work and management in our contemporary companies.

She co-created an educational game, the systemic fresco, to understand the paradigm change towards regenerative systems.

"Understand the paradigm shift towards regenerative systems with a serious game: the systemic fresco. "

The systemic fresco is an educational workshop which aims to learn a systemic, ecological and regenerative view.

Modeling our world in the form of nested systems, the game consists in identifying the fundamental beliefs and the rules of the game which underlie the functioning of our current socio-political, economic and productive systems, and which, by undesirable emergences, create the Nexus current ecological, social and political challenges.

It is then a question of transforming these beliefs and rules of the games to build regenerative systems. Thus, everyone, public power, citizen or even an economic actor, can identify the axes of transformation to follow to increase the robustness of our social, economic and productive systems, and keep our Habitable earth system.

"Can an official be irresponsible*?"

To what extent is the situation perceived by a manager, typically a manager, is it symptomatic of his own blind point? To what extent is it involved in the problem he perceives? To what extent does he generate it? 

During the intervention, we will evoke:

• The relativity of a problematic situation perceived to the one who conceives it 
• The transition from the linearity of the voluntary action of the subject "on" an organization which he conceives as an object (positivist approach) to the integration of the subject into the collective action system of which he is a part (constructivist approach).
• The MOEBIUS effect of the elucidation of-local situations in collective action systems. 
• From the constructivist perspective, complex feedback called "Moebius" between the conscious part of the leader and his repressed (shadow) and unconscious part.

In my work and my writings, I set out to rethink the learned construction of the study of phenomena by examining the resources offered by the theorizations of complexity.

"Heuristic dimension of the modeling process and simulation of phenomena"

It seems to me necessary to question the rationality regimes which organize us within the framework of conventional reference (ie to make rapid "linear") in order to reconsider them and take note of the limits of the knowledge produced. This paradigmatic change has several currents that can be grouped under the banner of complexities. These include understanding how interdependencies, interactions and feedbacks which connect the elements of a system are organized within it, facing the environment and in time. Their modeling can be presented as the design-construction action, using symbolic artifacts, representations of phenomena perceived or designed by an "observer-descriptor". Models are simplifications of the studied system which can be handled to bypass the limits of experimentation. As soon as their results are interpreted as hypotheses likely to be considered in this or that context, this exploratory and heuristic approach appears as a tool of choice to study "in silico" complex systems because it allows you to quickly test different Scenarios and alternatives. Among these tools, role -playing games are particularly suitable for consultation between actors and a joint use of models of resource dynamics.

"How to make transformation irresistible or the art of room experience"

During the intervention, we will evoke:

• How to bring the employees of a company to apprehend transformation beyond words (and evils) which define it
• How do the game, art or staging offer opportunities for exploring transformative transformation
• How to give a "soul to transformation" to make it apprehendable, close and questionable
• How the work of representing the transformation process facilitates its understanding as the emergence of the actions to be carried out to transform the company and transform themselves as a collaborators
• And finally, how the system of "seeing otherwise to do otherwise" generates enthusiasm to transform

Causal thought and traumatic world

Trauma creates a world where human relationships are destroyed and meaning is lost, generating a disturbing and repetitive present. Causal thought tries to rationalize this chaos by giving back in time, but risks an infinite regression in the search for causes. Each cause is then only the effect of a previous cause. Innovative therapeutic approaches such as TLMR and narrative therapy go beyond causality, reintroducing a relational and emotional perception, and reopening a fluid temporality. These practices allow the subject to rediscover its capacity for resistance to trauma and to restore meaning to its actions. The final objective is a holistic psychic reconstruction, integrating the relational and affective dimensions, to open the way to a future carrier of meaning.

Beyond causal thought with the approach centered on the solution

In this interactive presentation, certain ideas and certain elements of the approach centered on the solution will be explored through a demonstration of the way they use non -causal thought to initiate and stimulate a positive change in various contexts. Particular attention will be paid to the miracle question, a technique characteristic of the approach, which invites customers to build a different future by going beyond the action-consultation chain of causal thought. I hope that ideas, exercises, research results and examples of cases presented will allow participants to better understand the thought centered on the solution and will encourage them to try it in their own practice.

The co-construction process with two people in the room: from complaint to the objective

Brief therapy centered on the solution (SFBT) is an approach oriented to the future and based on forces. The description of the vision of the desired future and the identification of the already existing forces and resources that the customer has in the context of a co-construction process in which the practitioner focuses on the solution guides the process to from a hindsight. This can be easier to say than to do, especially when in the room there is more than one client, each with their own goal and their own resources. During this workshop, I invite you to experiment and think about the co-construction process with the participation of two people in the room. We will discuss the way in which the practitioner focused on the solution can guide the conversation with a dyad by moving away from their complaints and expectations of each other, and by reaching common ground anchored in personal skills of each individual.

He wrote a book on the presuppositions of the practice centered on the solution.

Take a step back to find new possibilities

Following the work of Nora and Gregory Bateson on the ecology of communication, I explored how learning a practice focused on the solution is potentially more focused on collaborative work in relationality, by becoming more aware of the 'tangle in which we are already - and working with and through the other. This short exploratory conference on recoil as a means of disturbing causality is an experience and a report of training sessions, difficult situations and learning on the part of my students on what works.

Understand the systemic through cinematographic works

Cinema talks about life, making us live on other lives than ours! By traveling through certain cinematographic works, we invite you to better understand the key concepts of the systemic.

Our objective is to approach, in an innovative way, the study of the individual in his environment, but also of all the systems in which he evolves as a subject: balance and imbalance of the family group, institutional analysis, organization industrial, conventional and judicial mediation, ...

Thanks to the 7th art and clinical situations resulting from the professional practice of stakeholders, we invite you to return to the decryption of meaning of the relevant concepts inscribed in the heart of the systemic approach.

• Relational transactions at work in incestuous families with the film Festen
• The emotional distance between family subsystems with just the end of the world ;
• Communication breaks and their overruns in the fifth element ...

Application of strategic therapy in psychiatric practice

Psychiatrists must have psychotherapeutic intervention tools. Brief strategic therapy can serve as an essential psychotherapeutic intervention method for psychiatrists in any context, including institutional environments. It is an advanced, rapid and effective technique that can be clinically applied in three circumstances: symptoms or reactions through which the patient supposes the disease, specific management of the symptoms of the disease and the patient complaints without relation to the reason for the consultation but which generate tension or discomfort. Thanks to strategic dialogue, the difficulty is equally characterized by interventions which allow rapid modifications of perception, emotion and cognition, thus influencing the behavior and modulation of symptoms.

The competence of families: real project or new mystification?

Until a recent past, the "request for help" was considered an essential and fundamental prerequisite, not to say essential, to any educational, social or therapeutic intervention. His absence was strongly handicapped or even made the aid ineffective. However, the evolution of our society and the meaning that child protection, adolescence, of people, families, make more and more stakeholders helpless to accept their aid . And these "beneficiaries", either accept the help of the lips, or perceive it as violence, an intrusion into their private space. How to welcome, intervene with children, adolescents, adults, parents, families who ask for nothing and who in addition are wary of their "caregivers"? How, in this context, approach our work through the prism of competence ???

How to manage unconscious choices

Good therapy allows people to discover choices they did not suspect. While traditional speech therapy seeks to bring unconscious impulses under conscious control, modern therapy approaches strategically use superior cognitive processes that operate outside of consciousness and influence behaviors that are beyond the scope of the conscious intention. This type of communication is often carried out by indirect suggestions, symbolic actions (or healing rituals), images and carefully adapted predictions. These interventions are more likely to succeed when the therapists understand the rules of unconscious decision -making.

Milton Erickson, Tchouang-tseu and the construction of reality

The work of the Palo Alto school has made it possible to make clear and easily usable in psychotherapy the concepts of constructivism: first -rate reality, objective reality, 2nd order, subjective reality ...

These notions can be easily combined with the approach of Milton Erickson and the way in which he has notably developed means to promote access to the patient's resources and skills. The Ericksonian unconscious is a reservoir of skills and skills. The practice of hypnosis allows the patient to find access to these unconscious resources, facilitates his choices and increases his power to act in the face of the specific elements of his life.

We will present creative exercises freely inspired by the readings of Jean-François Billeter "Lessons on Tchouang-Tseu" [ Ed. Allia 2002 ] and "Studies on Tchouang-Tseu" [ Ibid, 2004 ] allowing a bridge between the construction of a reality favorable to change and access to the patient's unconscious resources. This integrative psychotherapeutic perspective and the trance experience helps the patient to increase his capacities to cope, to "reorganize psychological complexities and disturbances of his psychic life in particular conditions which allow him to face constructively his problems, being rid of overwhelming anxieties. » [ Erickson ]
