manipulation aimed to reach certain therapeutic goal. |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\

basis, sensibly, and with discrimination. The therapist shares her perspective by modeling
|||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\




phenomenological reporting, which aids the patient's learning about trust and use of immediate |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\




experience to raise awareness. |||\\\ |||\\\ |||\\\
