Abstract
One way of mobilizing the patients’ resources instead of constantly rehashing old, familiar problems is for the therapist to provide stories and proverbs as counterconcepts.
Why did God create but one man? So that no one of his descendants should be able to say, “My father is better than your father”?
—Talmud
