In Session 1 (hours 1 and 2) we explore the key issues of an early EFIT session: identifying her typical ways of regulating emotion, reflecting her within/between pattern, finding key emotional handles (evocative words, images and metaphors that capture her vulnerabilities), identifying key elements of emotional disorders, and formulating a goal(s) for our work together. This includes some exploration of ongoing re-experiencing and anxiety related to a traumatic experience with an abusive ex-partner.
