Self-relations psychotherapy develops this idea further, emphasizing symptoms as indicating the death of an old identity and the impending birth of a new identity. Thus, we don’t try to “get rid of” depression, anxiety, or “acting out/acting in” expressions, but instead invite them into a human relationship of “sponsorship”, where their healing and helpful nature may be realized. We will see how a therapist can generate a ritual space where symptoms and other disturbing experiences can be “midwifed” into new identities.Educational Objectives: To name the basic principles and methods of self-relations psychotherapy. To describe how these methods might be used to transform symptoms into positive solutions and resources. *Sessions may be edited for content and to preserve confidentiality*
