Emotions-focused Methods

Behavioural therapy techniques

• creating access point at a deeper level
• application-oriented: case studies and therapy dialogues


Emotions-focused methods are an important tool in behavioural therapy. They are used to resolve the dysfunctional emotion regulation these patients suffer from and to help them deal constructively with problematic feelings such as fear, shame, guilt, sadness and loneliness. Lammers explains the individual methods and where they can be applied, and provides suggestions for interventions which could address critical points in the patient's emotional regulation disorder.
