ABSTRACT
One of the strengths of the contextual approach is that it attends to both intrapersonal experiences and interpersonal interactions. In Chapter 2, we explore the four dimensions of human reality as viewed through the lens of contextual therapy. We discuss the ways in which each of these dimensions interact with each other to capture the full range of human experiences, both individually and in relationships. Furthermore, we address the ways in which these dimensions influence expectations within parent-child, sibling, and romantic relationships. Finally, we describe the overlap between these four contextual dimensions and the biopsychosocial-spiritual model of health.
