Tehnici Terapeutice De Optimizare A Comunicării

An efficient therapist-client communication is essential since it helps reduce resistances and facilitates both the therapy and the counselling. Some cognitive-behavioural or eclectic methods used in short term therapies are to be found bellow. These methods are based on Milton Erickson's therapeutic approach and the neurolinguistic programming (NLP): Peacing and leading The therapist will imitate, as in a mirror, the client's non-verbal behaviour: his posture, mimic breathing and talking and speaks to him about his favorite topics. In order to make a good tandem with the client, it is highly recommended that the therapist should make use of the client's system of representations. The concept of the system of representations was elucidated by Bandler and Grinder, the founders of the neurolinguistic programming (NLP) in 1975. The above mentioned authors have noticed that when processing information, people favour unconsciously the use of one of the basic representations: sight, hearing or kinesthetic. There are two ways of finding out which is a person's system of representation: - To observe the predicates used by the client - Watching the eye-ball movement Indirect suggestions The indirect suggestions are addressed to the unconscious psyche, that is to suggest the client something he is not aware of. The benefit of indirect suggestions lies in the fact that they shun the client's opposition. The most important indirect sugestions are metaphores, implicit messages and double binds. Clinical case is presented.
