Clinical Handbook Of Emotion – Focused Therapy – Leslie Greenberg

This could have looked like the following: Therapist: Come over here, and can you see your younger self there? How do you respond to her? Client: You are fine just the way you are! There is nothing wrong with you. Therapist: And what would you do to comfort her?

Client: I would just put my arms around her, and tell her that I love her just as she is. Relief The expression of these adaptive emotions is often followed by expressions of relief and a sense of agency that the person can cope better going forward. Therapist: I wanted to hear that I was okay. Client: That I was um okay as I was, um, it feels good to let that out, I um, I feel strong again.

Content Subtypes The central distinguishing feature between insecure and self-critical self-organizations is whether they orient around attachment or identity needs. In both types of self-organization there is a self- treatment and a self–other component. Further, for both attachment and identity needs, there is a self- treatment that focuses on approaching a desired state, and one that focuses on avoiding an undesired state.

For example, for attachment needs people could neglect their own needs, to prevent other people from leaving them—therefore approaching the desired attachment state of closeness. Conversely, they could wall-off from others to avoid the undesired attachment state of being hurt by others. These distinctions are depicted in Table 10.1. Experiential States Observed During the Processing of Attachment and Identity Concerns Negative self- treatment Fear of Self-referential emotion Need from self Need from other Attachment focus (approach) Self- silencing/sel f-neglect “My needs don’t matter” Abandonment “Others will leave me” Unimportant/worthless Self-care (prioriti ze own needs) Support/prizing Attachment focus (avoid) Wall self off “Don’t let anyone in” Close others “Others can’t be trusted” Isolated Trust others/ Let others in Reliable/trustworthy Identity focus (avoid) Self-criticism “I’m too stupid/fat/ug ly” Humiliation/Rejection “Others will reject me” Shame (defective) Accept self Validation/acceptance Identity focus (approach) Push self “I can’t relax, keep going” Failure to succeed “I won’t make it” Exhaustion Trust self Less pressure Concluding Comments Some of the main findings of this model are supported by converging evidence.
