Session 2:

  • Inclusive therapy
  • Three levels of inclusion: permission, inclusion of seeming opposites, exceptions
  • Methods of inclusion: tag questions, saying the 'no' for the client, oxymoron, finding the value in the problem or the resistance, revaluing the devalued, disowned and dissociated, self-compassion and self-forgiveness
