Searching Inward

Although not a new concept, the process of searching—directing clients' attention inward—is a skill that many clients need to be taught, and many therapists are unsure how to lead the way. Yalom and Krug show you simple but powerful techniques for helping clients navigate their world of emotions. You'll learn how to...

  • Facilitate your client's journey inward

  • Connect clients to their inner world of emotions

  • Help highly intellectualized clients build an emotional vocabulary

 

Process Comments

Process comments draw attention to what is experienced but unsaid and can include such things as noting a client's facial expressions, body language or tone of voice. Yalom and Krug demonstrate how using process comments can lead clients to some important places within themselves. You'll learn how to...

  • Deepen your clients' access to their intrapersonal world

  • Use the therapeutic relationship to help clients with interpersonal issues

  • Reveal the emotions behind the words your clients are speaking 

​

Beyond Technique: Presence

Tools and techniques are vital, but underlying therapist presence is critical. Here Yalom and Krug teach you how to bring your whole self into the room and be fully present with clients. You'll learn how to...

  • Model openness and vulnerability to help clients learn to do the same

  • Empower clients to take risks in their own lives
