This is our fourth episode dedicated to helping you join stuck processes. In this episode, we talk about taking a direct approach to handling repeated behaviors or processes that come up in therapy. Our central case is that you can't try to avoid it, and it helps to plan to go towards issues plaguing the process.

Welcome to the Leading Edge in Emotionally Focused Therapy with Drs. James Hawkins, Ph.D., LPC, and Ryan Rana, Ph.D., LMFT, LPC, ICEEFT Therapists, Supervisors, and Trainers. Thank you for listening. We hope this experience helps you push the leading edge in your work to help people connect with themselves and each other.
