Through a complete two-hour live session, he illustrates testing, rigorous empathy, positive reframing, the Magic Dial, the Double Standard Technique, and the Feared Fantasy method in action. The result is a transparent look at how shame, anxiety, and hopelessness can shift dramatically when patients confront the thoughts that maintain their suffering and practice relapse prevention to make gains last.
