EHI Salon: The Many Faces of Resistance

ZOOOM

We will explore The Many Faces of Resistance.

The identification of the various faces of resistance is the pathway to working with these resistances to restore good contact with the environment in which we live. In other words, these various types of resistance are for the therapist to utilize with our clients to tap into the many distressing feelings evoked when the client does not have unimpeded access to what he/she wants, such as anger, confusion, resentment, disappointment, etc. These feelings, expressed in resistance, reduce the possibilities of productive contactual interactions with the environment and express the powerlessness over the outcome of these interactions. Being fully present to these ways of avoiding the negative feelings when we are not getting what we want can restore ownership of these feelings without having to resist them. Awareness, acknowledgment, experiential exercises, and acceptance can begin the necessary healing process.
