The dead locked family, when addressing the psychologist with its problem usually comes with one possible answer. In order to provoke the restrictive ways in which the family prescribes its members a perspective on reality, the psychologist may suggest: "Let's pretend that the world is different", create a "as if" session, where the dragon are just magnified butterflies. We note that it is paradoxical that the counselor's intervention, which the client or family perceives to be unreasonable, contrary to the commonsense or irrelevant for the purposes of psychointervention. Not so much intervention in itself is paradoxical, but how it is perceived and understood by the client. The keys to paradox strategies are "to think differently" and to "act unpredictably".
