UNBLOCKING is another Metapsychology technique that is very effective in helping a client fully process a topic. It is a series of questions that are repeated which allows a client to work deeper and release any emotional stress and distorted thinking.
This series of questions is designed to get a client to think differently about a topic whilst releasing the emotional pain, resistance and confusion. This process brings clients to a place of greater clarity and ease in relation to that issue.
These questions are intentionally repeated in order to "un-suppress" all the details, leaving clients feeling lighter.
**{So many clients come to me with a "hot topic" (such as a relationship) that causes much distress.
This one lady had an estranged relationship with her son; for several years they hadn't seen each other nor spoken to each other. She finally agreed to the process of "unblocking". At the end of the session I said "now don't be surprised if you hear from your son". She scoffed.
That afternoon while working on her computer she got a Facebook message from her son apologizing for not being in contact and asking if she would like to get together! }**
Clearing the emotional charge created space for the relationship to reconnect.
Unblocking has a magic! It clears little things that have built up and it clears big issues too. It is very effective in and of itself and it helps prepare a client to run Tramatic Incident Reduction. Unblocking is also effective in many types of therapy: Anger Management, Social Anxiety and Panic Attacks, Depression and Trauma/PTSD
There are 29 questions that are designed to get clients to process any topic.
These questions are repeated until the client runs out of answers (it is very thorough).
After one question runs out of answers, we move to the next question, until all 29 questions are asked.
This process usually takes clients 2-3, 90 minute sessions.
It is very thorough and very effective - it's like magic!
