“The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed” (Carl Gustav Jung). This sentence summarizes how Strategic Therapy & Interventions was born, through the encounter and the realization of a project in NYC by two Strategic Therapists trained in Arezzo at the Center of Brief Therapy by Giorgio Nardone.

At the beginning of 2007, the idea to unite the experiences of strategic consulting in Italy and Europe with the application of the strategic approach in the context of drug addiction treatment agencies in New York City was born. Such agencies deal with treating drug abuse and the underlying psychosocial disorders.

The well-established experience and expertise of the Center of Strategic Therapy (CST) with organizational challenges formed the base for two strategic consultants/therapists to create modules of training interventions targeting clinical, communication, and organizational problem-solving objectives for the clinical staff at a medical and drug treatment agency in New York City.

These modules were presented to counselors, therapists and medical doctors at West Midtown Medical Group in New York with three primary objectives:

  • first, to introduce the theoretical postulates of the Strategic Approach,
  • then, to provide the clinical staff with the principles of communication to facilitate and improve communication with patients and within the agency;
  • and finally, to offer staff concrete and immediately applicable problem-solving tools that the clinical staff could use during their career with patients and their personal lives.
This training received the official recognition of the New York State (OASAS) and has been designed to be easily adaptable to any agency, organization or business’s Human Resources. Following the success of this training, which was initiated by its creators as a desire for discovery rather than as a planned first step towards a future business, the idea of creating Strategic Therapy & Interventions of NY was born with the objectives of providing both clinical and corporate parties rigorous, efficient and effective strategic approaches to their issues.

Strategic Therapy & Interventions desires to support the clinical and corporate worlds with a Strategic Approach well described by a famous expression of Sherlock Holmes: “the mixture of imagination and reality which is the basis of my art”. With these objectives in mind, Brief Strategic Therapy (BST) has been created to provide efficient and effective interventions to mental health and clinical issues. Strategic Coaching & Corporate Counsulting (S3C) has been more specifically designed to provide businesses similar effective results and efficiency, using specific tools and tailored interventions.
