087: Role-Play Techniques (Part 5) — Devil's Advocate

The Devil's Advocate Technique is another one of the role-playing techniques in TEAM-CBT. You can use this technique for any habit or addiction, such as:

• Drug or alcohol abuse
• Overeating / binge eating
• Shopping addiction
• Internet addiction
• And procrastination, which is our problem for today.

David and Fabrice are joined by Sara Shane, a member of David's Tuesday evening psychotherapy Stanford training group for northern California mental health professionals. Sara has volunteered to demonstrate the technique to see if she can get some help with procrastination.
