In this compelling 60-minute teaching demonstration of a formal induction, viewers watch as Dr. Yapko, a master listener and storyteller, empowers Bob, a fellow clinician struggling with issues of professional competence. Emphasizing the inherent ambiguities of the clinical situation, Dr. Yapko frees Bob to begin to trust himself more and to worry less about validation from others. The video includes captioned commentaries in which Dr. Yapko explains his goals for the session and the significance of moment-by-moment interventions. A brief, concluding Q&A section adds another dimension to the learning.
