I notice how often people mention what their therapist told them to do.
"I wasn’t sure this was the right career move for me, but my therapist said I should appy for the promotion."
"I felt uneasy about my forthcoming date but my therapist said it would be good to explore it further."
"I wasn’t sure whether to see the Marvel movie or the rom-com but my therapist said to see the rom-com, and to make sure I get the salted popcorn and cola."
OK so the last one isn’t real. But still, what are therapists doing giving opinions about how our clients should live their lives?
Why are therapists providing this level of direction?
Our job is not to puppeteer our clients.
Here’s what our job is :
1. Clarify the problem and the change your client wants to make
2. Find the core prediction that keeps the problem alive and so makes change hard
3. Work to erase the core prediction using memory reconsolidation
