episodic therapy
Often people do not ask for an appointment to resolve a problem, but an experience.
We can become episodic therapy, when it does not follow a structured path.
Like the therapy focused on resources, our research group in treatments based on hypnosis (Mark Chisotti, Ennio Martignago, Antonio and Paola Musso Sacchettino), has taken over the term conjugate by Keeney to define a therapeutic style, the RFT (Resource Focused Therapy), where attention is constantly focused on research resources of the client. Like the episodic therapy stress that attention should be stored in considering every encounter as an experience in itself through a time where the relationship of the structural changes occurring in each therapist and client. Sometimes the structural changes become organizational changes, changes that affect the mental organization of the same person. What is most important is to bring the customer to their resources, then let him continue in his narrative until it tends to get out of their resources, then action is taken to bring him back on resources. This therapeutic approach allows to focus on the possibilities that are known to have vanished in those who report a problem or warns of the difficulties. Can address and resolve an issue at a time, one runs the risk that treatment often is just to run after a thousand streams narrative without being able to solve anything, but entering the intractable complexity of the undifferentiated whole in which the person is located. Very attention to the resources and experience to help not seduced by misleading that are obtained in the diagnosis and give room to therapeutic expectations that tend to generate, in turn, flattering behavior by the customer compared to the expectations of the therapist, in turn, driven by his theories and knowledge to the customer. Not the search for disease, but the development of resources.
Here is born a therapeutic process that generates only through explanations and suggested courses of action taken by the client during the therapy. Here is a summary of the path, at points, suggested the approach to experiential therapy, reported by Keeney in his book "Therapy focuses on resources."
The therapist must take up the fewest information from the patient or those deemed essential to avoid increased complexity and because every patient has an endless supply of contradictions, ever changing, beliefs in which it would be easy to get lost in vain.
Use the minimum amount of time gathering information, focusing each session on its available resources, time keeping his attention on emotional / experiential is living here and now. "
At the same time it uses the least amount of theory in that the therapist should not fade away behind the same, than you should trust himself and his techniques. The theories are used to exercising, but what counts during therapy is the involvement of himself as a therapist in the relationship with the client within the session.
addition, the therapist must do the minimum, listening to the customer until it is in the context of its resources, interrupting only when it tends to victimize and away from his positive qualities, to bring its resources and giving the right balance.
It 'good that the therapist remain "serene" and, above all, no psychology, which carried off the field of resources to fall back into the logic of the theories, which deal pipeline empty of meaning.
No sociology, no ideology, but suddenly because the patient is a theory in itself.
E 'possible to have a reversal of common sense through exploratory behavior where the curiosity of the therapist is crucial.
overturns common sense: you do not have to describe a meaning from the individual actions, but use the individual actions to achieve significance.
Life is nothing but the emergence of our individual actions and experiences, so "do not see to see and to act."
In a systemic context that this approach suggests should be based entirely on customer experience and all the people who interact with him to create that network of relationships that maintain the status quo, and Solutia, which problematic.
Eg. panic if the therapist is responsive to a customer expresses doubt with regard to suicide, he potentially helping to reinforce the belief of the customer in the reality of suicide itself.
In therapy there is no official narrator, which will involve role pre therapist / patient, with all the expectations and limitations that these roles carry with them, but a circular relationship, as the guide in hypnosis and being guidance.
The flow of the explanations should be locked and you must work on the "nonsense" to help the client build new roads with which to give meaning to his life.
Assuming that a fact is not as it is, but as you describe, it means helping a client redesign with him (in responsibility), a new map of the self and its reality.
are not trivial questions, questions that have not yet answered and the customer's reactions to these questions that have intrigued the therapist, the therapy must be lived more like a theater in which to train the customer to the desired character. The greater the involvement therapist / patient can be obtained, the higher the index that you are in a context of resources, where the absurd behavior that breaks the rules is legitimate and testing is welcome.
There are preventive methods that allow the person to work on herself, without the danger of the therapist to do damage, because the intervention is not medicalised or terapizzato.
Some people can experience them with a doctor, a psychologist, but also a philosopher, a counselor, a coach or with their mentor.
