Summary:

"In this session, Dr. Ladislav Timulak demonstrates emotion-focused therapy with an African American male client who presents with concerns related to family dynamics and conflict with his partner. The therapist helps the client identify core emotions associated with this conflict; he also allows the client to examine how his partner's frequent verbal abuse toward him as a man and as a father triggers his self-doubt and fear about failing his daughter. Throughout the session, Dr. Timulak uses the empty chair technique to help the client assume the perspectives of others in his life and to express core feelings and needs toward himself and his family members. The client also discusses his temporary physical disability, which has impacted his frustrations toward his sense of self and his role in the family. Through deep emotional exploration, validation, and support, Dr. Timulak helps the client find self-compassion and begin to build a greater sense of empowerment and self-trust"
