DBT assumptions

This morning we discussed a team of psychotherapists about the assumptions of behavioral therapy

dialectic, something we do weekly.

-"The patient is doing the best he can, and yet can do more," was one of the lines that came up. SPAN>

-"wanting versus need," added a colleague.

-"Choose your difficult," was the next.

until a colleague raised the different point of view:

-"We are often not really doing our best, we know we can do much better and yet we don't do it." SPAN>

-"Oh, it is hard!", verbalized another colleague.

Another person then claimed that from the moment we are aware that we are not doing our best, the context has already changed. /span>

In this sense, one of the colleagues shared that when she becomes aware that she doesn't want to do better, that she doesn't want to do it anymore, she's not In order, or you don't like, the voice of rumination and charging are shut up and she gets calmer.

This last speech has touched me differently, in an invitation to look more carefully, with greater awareness for my list of "owners" and who knows Allow to recognize for myself what I should and I will arrange and what I should and do not want, and therefore I will break free. Consciousness liberates.
