Vorkongress: Alleviating Guilt, Shame, Blame, and Rumination with Resource Therapy

Some of the most cathartic and rapid client changes come from the transition from rumination to understanding. Rumination involves consistent and repetitive unwanted thoughts about particular issues or topics. According to the American Psychological Association, a common underlying reason for rumination is the unconscious belief that persistent reflection will lead to insight into a problem. This process often evident in feelings of guilt, shame, and blame, such as "I should have said or done something," "How could that person do that?" or "I can't understand or believe how that happened."

In Resource Therapy, these symptoms are identified as a state Vaded with Confusion. This workshop is designed to provide therapists with both a theoretical understanding of rumination and precise techniques to help clients achieve a comprehension that brings relief from intrusive thoughts. Participants will learn how to guide clients toward transforming their rumination into understanding, facilitating quick and cathartic resolutions.

Join us to enhance your therapeutic skills and empower your clients to break free from the cycle of rumination. The workshop will include:

• Theory (an understanding of the cause of rumination and the solution)
• Steps (Clear and precise steps for resolving rumination will be explained)
• Demonstration (one or more demonstrations will show the process)
• There will also be an opportunity to practice the steps so you will be ready to work with clients.
