Chapter 4. Images and analitical work with them
Summary
Оглавление1. Different trends in psychotherapy work with images.
2. Most interesting are dreams, pictures and fantasies which involuntarily reflect the personality and its problems.
3. The images created by the client are interpreted on the background of the experience of many generations of psychologists, images speak about the things which the client doesn’t notice in himself.
4. To deeper understand the meaning of images the doctor makes a special research analyzing images together with the client.
5. While analyzing images the doctor is guided by a hypothesis, which takes into account symptoms, the client’s life history and special features of images.
6. In the EIT the client is requested to ask the image about something as it was a living thing, to assume its role and on its behalf to answer questions of the doctor.
7. You may often use not one but many images which become revealed during the analysis.
8. When the meaning of the image is clear and it reflects the emotional state most important for this problem, the doctor asks the client to influence the image in some way and it is the means of solving the problem.
9. If the influence is effective it is repeated till the clear therapeutic result [100%] is achieved.
10. Images and symptoms are the basis for creating a therapeutic hypothesis. The hypothesis makes it possible to analyze the problem more exactly and adequately.
11. The hypothesis is created on the basis of different theories and private therapeutic models as well as the doctor’s experience.
12. A well-formed hypothesis contains answers to the main questions:
– What unrealized [frustrated] desire [or attraction] of the client generates the analyzed problem?
– What is the nature of the barrier not allowing the client to realize the desire?
– What conditions or events of the past promoted the conflict?
13. On the basis of some theory the hypothesis unites symptoms, feelings, images, the supposed psychodynamic conflict, past events, chronic negative state, generating symptoms. It is verified by additional questions and watching non-verbal behavior of the client.
