Balance Communication

  • Reciprocal communication
  • Irreverent communication
  • Dialectically balanced: speed, movement

in the service of behavioral self- management and reduced suffering

  • Dialectics: strong reciprocal and strong

irreverent communication

Balance Consultation Strategy With Intervening in the Environment

Consultation with the Patient:

  • Teach the patient to be effective on

his/her own behalf with

– Social network – Professional network

Environmental Intervention:

  • Intervene on her/his behalf when the

short-term gain is greater than the short-term loss + long-term loss

5

Environmental Intervention

Necessary when:

  • The patient cannot do what is needed on

her/his own behalf (or the environment will not accept it from the patient) and the

  • utcome is very important
  • The life of the patient or another is at stake
  • The patient is a minor (legal/ethical)
  • It is humane to do so and unlikely to cause

harm to the patient

Dialectical Opportunities

  • Integrate/synthesize acceptance & change
  • Use metaphors and stories
  • Balance acceptance & change as solutions

(targets and matched skills)

  • Dialectical targets (both/and, polarizations)
  • Wise mind
  • Communication strategies
  • Consultation-to-the patient/ environmental

intervention

  • Consultation team (structure & process)

7

Dialectical opportunities, continued

  • Lemonade out of lemons
  • Dialectical assessment: What am I (or,

are we) missing?

  • Allow natural change
  • Notice or enter the paradox
  • Play devil’s advocate
  • Omnipotence and impotence
  • Dialectics of behavior therapy (ABCs?)
  • Movement, speed and flow (jazz,

dance)

8

Dialectics is participation (mindfulness) for the therapist.

“As in the training of the samurai, the student needs a number of years to achieve expertise and many more to achieve spontaneity.”

  • Salvador Minuchin, famous DBT supervisor

Judgements and anger get in the way, and are corrosive in relationships even when justified.

And, anger always hides other,

  • ften more important emotions,

in close relationships.

Accurate Experession Relationship Mindfulness Identify Emotion, Want, Goals, etc. Manage Emotions

Steps Toward a Accurate Expression

What is my relationship with this person? Remember I care about him/her and that she/he cares about me. Is this a good time for communication? Is the other person open? Mindfulness: Bring attention to your sensations, what happened (event), identify primary emotion What do you want? What do you care about? Mindfulness: Observe emotion Non-judgmental Be effective, not right De-escalate emotions Let go: judgments Anger as a signal Accept/allow Change: Problem solve, opposite action, exposure Describe: Your primary emotions, what you want, your goals, sensations,

  • pinions, how you

want to try to solve a problem ets. Stay descriptive. 16

Validatin g Response

Understand Relationship Mindfulness (bring attention to another) Mindfulness (manage emotions))

Steps Toward a Validating Response

Manage attention Be curious Be kind Manage own emotions to understand the

  • ther person:

What would get a person to do this? What would get me to do this? Relationship Mindfulness: Bring mindfulness to the other, your relationship Remember this is a person you love, what kind of relationship you want Mindfulness: Observe emotion Describe Participate Non-judgmental Be effective, not right De-escalate emotions Let go: judgments Anger as a signal Validate the valid Don’t invalidate valid things Don’t validate invalid things Invalidate the invalid only

Session Management Strategies

  • Revolving door
  • Relationship mindfulness
  • Speaking “for” (expressing accurately, or

validating) the partner

  • Involve others
  • Blocking, blocking, blocking…

22

More therapeutic issues

  • Finding a way to like the client(s)

– Allows early blocking, while still liking him/her – Allows playfulness, irreverence

  • Be able to “see” the chain leading to the

present, or problem, behavior

  • Understand dysfunctional behavior IN the

model…don’t be judgmental or reactive

  • Make the partner or parent look good; don’t

undermine or show him or her up

– Speaking for the partner or parent can help – Validating the family member, his/her wise mind

23

Validation Increases Positive Affect and Decreases Negative Affect
