A tip if possible in this medium. What to do with a client that manages to stay stable even if the symptom is deprived? It seems that he does not pretend.
Thanks for the question Mario. Part 2 of the tutorial is called "What to do when a Symptom Deprivation 'Doesn't Work' " . It teaches a number of techniques one can employ, including how to tweak the content of the Symptom Deprivation, how to guide the client's attention specifically towards the discomfort they may be not noticing, how to "turn up the volume" on the Symptom Deprivation, how to determine if this is a "functionless symptom" (and what to do if so), and more. You can find both parts one and two of the tutorial here: www.experiential-psychotherapies.com/residences/#ctanchor3
Hi Danielle. Like most forms of experiential therapy, Coherence Therapy techniques can be done in creative ways so as to work with kids and teens. Symptom deprivations can be created using art therapy, sand tray, drama therapy, and other similar techniques that activate the emotional brain using other channels besides just the verbal cortex. These can also be useful with teens, but often they can work just like adults as well.
