Clinical Methodology

This chapter examines how the effectiveness and unification of psychotherapy are advanced by neuroscientists’ findings on memory reconsolidation, the brain’s innate mechanism for profound unlearning. Research relevant to psychotherapy is reviewed and mapped unambiguously into a clinical methodology of transformational change, the therapeutic reconsolidation process (TRP), applicable to all symptoms arising from memory contents. The TRP is defined as a set of experiences required by the brain, allowing implementation by any suitable experiential techniques, without dictating particular forms of therapy. Detection of TRP fulfillment in published case studies from diverse therapy systems suggests that the TRP provides psychotherapy unification and, functioning as both a specific and a common factor, may be responsible for transformational change occurring in any therapy sessions, which would confirm and advance the “corrective experience” paradigm. A coherence therapy case example serves to demonstrate TRP implementation, and research priorities are suggested.

This paper examines the perspective of marginalized young women, training to become mentors for marginalized girls, with respect to the role of the mentor. Taking a critical feminist perspective, this article gives expression to the research participants’ unique knowledge, based on life experience as marginalized girls and their lived experiences. Based on a photovoice research project with 13 participants, all marginalized young women, the findings of this paper identify three main narratives regarding the mentoring role: (1) Mentoring as a relationship; (2) Mentoring as an action for the future; and (3) Organizational belongness—the organization hosting the participants serving as an ideological, value-based, and professional home, enabling the growth of the mentor in her role. The conclusions of the article argue that marginalized young women experience mentoring as a practice that expands beyond its rational aspects, embodying within it a corrective experience of relationships and an opportunity for social change.

The Brain

Knowledge about the brain and the impact of trauma has increased significantly in recent years. Counselors must understand brain functioning and the effects of trauma in order to choose the most effective methods for working with clients. Creative arts therapies offer a nonthreatening way for clients to access and express their trauma, creating a corrective experience in the brain. Activities that incorporate body movement can be particularly helpful by providing a corrective emotional experience for those clients with an immobilized response to a traumatic event. This article offers a model for the assessment and treatment of trauma through the use of creative arts.

Personality Patterns

We present here a case of a patient with a narcissistic personality disorder. We must take narcissism, like the rest of the personality patterns, as the response of an individual to a context, as the result of a relational matrix (Mitchell). The origin of pathological narcissism is to be found in caregivers who emotionally neglected the child, victim of isolation, on the one hand, and who share and promote narcissistic fantasies of the child, confused with their own fantasies. Dysregulation of narcissism occurs when the child's needs have been ignored, causing severe disturbances in self-esteem or the creation of a great defensive shield (Morrison). At first, our patient could not accept any fault in himself, assuming that the therapist would not accept his faults either. The challenge as therapists is to assume the disability that the patient attributes to us, the incompetence that the patient pursues, without us falling into disaster or in the most absolute hell, which is ultimately what he fears the most. Accepting the faults that the patient displaces in the therapist is a surprise for the patient, it was even a corrective experience in the encounter with himself.
