Working in the Here and Now
Summary
Clients who come to us feeling lonely, isolated, and depressed, often struggle because they are walled off from both their own feelings and from others in their lives. The key to helping these clients is to pay close attention to their relationship with you, the clinician, in real time — the “here-and-now.” Using and then discussing video clips from his first session with Heather, a sad, lonely, and self-critical client who craves caring and attention, Victor Yalom teaches you how to deepen your own clients’ emotional experiences, expand their self-awareness, and build a springboard for healthy relationships outside of the therapy room.
