Synopsis

Resource Therapy, like Ego State Therapy, is a parts therapy, but its techniques enable parts to be accessed without hypnosis. It also provides more detailed diagnosis and more defined technique regimens. It enables therapists to respond to difficult issues with straightforward techniques. Clear guidelines help therapists to diagnose patients into categories relating to whether they present with unwanted emotions, unwanted behaviors, or unwanted internal conflicts.Our personality parts are our Resources. Positive mental health is when these Resources function normally. RT Actions allow therapists to quickly locate Resources that need change. The precise RT Actions needed for each type of issue are defined.The personality is demystified, with an understanding why patients present with PTSD, Eating Disorders, Depression, Addictions, and many other psychological issues.RT Actions are also presented that help patients make sure they can have their best Resources Conscious. This improves sporting performance, academic performance, and generally enables patients to respond to issues with their best strengths.Tables in this book help illustrate diagnosis, and provide a clear-cut presentation of the personality.
