As it became clear in the first session, Hanni struggles with
feelings of self-criticism which work in the background of her
mind and color her mood and experience negatively. Yet, these
feelings are rarely in the foreground and it is thus not clear to
her what the content of the self-criticism actually is. Hanni
sometimes sees that in the background the mind is actually
repeating uncomfortable situations on a loop, but it's difficult
for her to catch and remember them. I encourage Hanni to bring
those loop-memories to the foreground and and write them down in
order to find out which set of convictions they are feeding. In
this session we also see that Hanni sometimes disconnects: her
mind is occasionally blocked in the first half, and she has
difficulties to get out of it and articulate herself. Such issues
of disconnect in-the-moment would be essential to investigate
within a longer-term therapy, but preparing our mere
three-session-arch we agreed not to work on such deeper issues
and to focus on more pragmatic emotional, cognitive, and
communicative aspects instead.
