Effective Therapy: A Major Force in Enhancing Moral Intelligence
John Bradshaw, MA
In this cutting-edge lecture, John brings forth a strong case for the role of therapy in forming moral
intelligence. In his latest book, Reclaiming Virtue, John draws the conclusion that humans possess a unique
innate moral intelligence — defi ned as “right practical reasoning in making good choices.” John argues
that this ability to choose well is marred by addictions and emotional illness. Focusing on the critical part
played by emotion and volition in making mature choices, he offers specific ways in which effective therapy can invigorate and restore one’s moral intelligence.
Twelve Step programs talk about addiction as spiritual bankruptcy. John focuses on the fourth step, wherein
participants are asked to take a searching and fearless “moral” inventory, as well as the successive six steps,
which involve moral reparation and moderate living.
Learning Objectives
• Utilize Carl Jung’s belief in methods for dealing with “the ultimate ethical problem” to inform current understandings of “moral Intelligence.”
• Describe methodologies for teaching emotional containment critical in the development of emotional literacy.
• Identify the limitations of verbal therapies in the restoration of mature moral and spiritual health.
• Discuss the ramifications of the human will as a mental force able to change the structure of the brain.

The goal of the workshop is to help you learn certain life skills that you should have learned at each developmental stage of a normal childhood. These skills will enhance your personal freedom.
