ABSTRACT
Example: Molly, aged eight, who lived with her Gran, because her Mum was in prison for three years, lay awake each night with her catastrophic thinking. She was worried about what she would do if her Gran died in her sleep. She never came up with a solution. She would call out throughout the night ‘Goodnight Granny’, just to check that her grandmother was not dead. Her quality of life was vastly improved by doing this exercise with a listening adult.
