metanymous в посте Metapractice (оригинал в ЖЖ)
Whenever we seem to be faced with an either/or choice of alternatives, it is useful to contemplate how this apparent opposition can be transformed into a both/and. In retrospect, I wish that I had put more emphasis on the theme of the last paragraph of the previous post, namely to request feedback about many different aspects of the client’s experience rather than only a single variable that is scaled. For instance, “I want you to let me know of any changes in the intensity of your feeling. And I also want to know if the quality of your feeling changes—for instance from fear to curiosity, or from hesitation to eagerness, etc. I want you to tell me if the way you see an internal image changes, for instance, the size, distance, location, color, focus, etc. If an internal voice changes in loudness, location, or tonality, I want to know that. I also want to know if what you see in your image, or the words of your internal voice change.” An instruction like this invites specific feedback information that is far more varied and useful than just scaling a single aspect of experience.
