Abstract
Once clients are fully oriented to the therapy and have made a commitment to continue, the next five months are designed to help them understand and make simple changes in their personalities. When exploring how the client functions, any topic of concern can serve as content. The emphasis is on exploring styles and limits of functioning; this allows clients to bring up anything they want to talk about and allows therapists to get across the idea that problems and symptoms often are the result of the ways that a client responds.
