relationships.
5. In growth-fostering relationships, all people contribute and grow or benefit;
development is not a one-way street.
6. Therapy relationships are characterized by a special kind of mutuality.
7. Mutual empathy is the vehicle for change in therapy.
8. Real engagement and therapeutic authenticity are necessary for the develop-
ment of mutual empathy.
16. A primary goal of RCT: is to create and maintain Mutually-Growth-Fostering
Relationships, relationships in which both parties feel that they matter.
17. In RCT,all of the involved parties with healthy relationships experience
what is known as the Five Good Things. These are:: 1) a desire to move into
more relationships, because of how a good relational experience feels; 2) a sense
of zest, or energy; 3) increased knowledge of oneself and the other person in the
relationship; 4) a desire to take action both in the growth-fostering relationship and
outside of it; 5) an overall increased sense of worth.
18. One of the core tenets of RCT is the Central Relational Paradox (CRP). The
CRP assumes that: we all have a natural drive toward relationships, and in these
relationships we long for acceptance. However, we come to believe that there are
things about us that are unacceptable or unlovable. Thus, we choose to hide these
things; we keep them out of our relationships. In the end, the connections we make
with others are not as fulfilling and validating as they otherwise might have been.
19. motivational interviewing key elements: *client centered, MI spirit (collabo-
ration, autonomy), change talk, sustain talk, resistance
20. OARS technique for MI: open-ended questions
affirmation
reflection
summarization
21. DARN acronym for recognizing change talk: Desire, Ability, Reason, Need,
Can
22. Existential Therapy is loosely defined and the main value is:: * self-aware-
ness. Each person creates his private world. Umwelt, mitwelt are some of the
descriptions of the modes of the world. Resistance is a signal to change responses.
