Practice

We all have a self that is comprised of the sum of all our subjective experiences. All our relationships with significant people from the past provide the organizing principles from which we unconsciously operate in all our subsequent relationships. However, if we develop an understanding of the meanings of our early experiences, we may no longer be destined to repeat the past.

It is the dialogue between the therapist and client that assists the client to make sense of early experiences. Through the intersubjective relationship – that is, where the subjective world of the client and therapist interface, new meanings are created. Old meanings are transformed into new effective ways of being in present relationships.
