• Clients are making progress step by step building on their experience before moving on to the next.
• When they feel accepted and understood at one stage, they feel able to take to the next step.
STAGE 1 •Clients are very resistant.•Believe that display of emotion is a weakness.
STAGE 2 •Less rigid and will talk about other people/external events.
•When things go wrong, tend to blame others.
STAGE 3 •Clients talk about themselves as a 3rd person and avoid discuss about present event.

express their insight, emotion, thinking, evaluation of something, and self condition.
