ABSTRACT

This chapter shows that the most sentient beings have had experiences in their lives where they have been either judged, abused, misunderstood, or in fact rejected for either real or imagined perceptions on the part of another person or persons. These types of experiences often have a profound effect on the recipient and can, if repeated, cause dramatic changes in the individual's personality and interpersonal relationships in the present and in the future. It was suggested that a simple intervention/technique will have a profound effect on the client ultimately helping to restructure an individual's personality and current interpersonal relationships. This very simple intervention/technique will elicit a wealth of personal information on the part of the group members. They will often have the opportunity of experiencing the corrective emotional experience, because the group members are often very supportive and sympathetic to the disclosure.
