graded approach

In this video we will begin a discussion of the graded approach, used to build capacity in patients who get too anxious or defensive to face their true feelings. This is a complex topic with many aspects, so it will take a number of videos to just scratch the surface.

Nice! The video cut off, however, as you said, “I hope this…” and then then video abruptly cuts out.

If the headache continues after they’ve “come back” is that still a sign of anxiety being too high?

[@patriciacoughlinphd1852]

No, that would suggest that aggressive impulses are being repressed and that the patient is doing to himself what he wants to do to another. So, if anxiety is in striated go for feelings and impulses toward the person involved in the event that triggered the headache.

You might want to check out www.istdpinstitute.com and look for therapists trained in this method who practice in your state.
