Educational Goal
The educational goal of this module is to unpack how to work with the emotional memory system in clients in effort towards healing schematic learnings.
Description
Much of the anxiety that individuals experience and the relational tension that occurs with this anxiety can be traced to schematic learning. Schemas are another way of describing our blueprint for living, or how we think about ourselves and our world. Coherence Therapy and Bowen Systems Theory bring to light the importance of clinicians guiding clients to increase awareness about implicit emotional learning. Family healing happens when clients can gain more awareness and understanding of their thinking process and learn how to integrate this understanding into their relationship interactions.
