Transforming Emotional Pain presents an accessible self-help approach to mental health based on Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT).
Based
on the principles of EFT, and developed by clinicians and researchers,
this client-focused workbook is designed to supplement psychotherapy and
can also serve as a self-help book. It will help readers learn how to
regulate feelings that are unpleasant and transform painful feelings, so
that they can fulfil their needs and feel more connected and empowered
in their lives. Providing a step-by-step sequential guide to exploring,
embracing, and transforming emotions, the various chapters guide the
reader to help overcome emotional avoidance, with sections on:
transforming the emotional self-interrupter; transforming the inner
self-worrier; transforming the self-critic; and healing from emotional
injury.
This workbook can be used by trained
therapists, mental health professionals, psychology professionals, and
trainees as supplementary to their therapeutic interventions with
clients. It can also be used by general readers with an interest in
self-help literature and resources or anyone wanting to explore,
embrace, and transform their emotions.
