Case Study 4 Miss P’s relationship with her mother has deteriorated since her mid teens. Her mother is very disapproving of anything she does and any relationship she has. Miss P lacks confidence; she has no social life and feels guilty that she doesn’t see her friends. She is also in a job were she feels under valued and over worked. She is conscious of her weight, which fluctuates with her depression. She doesn’t have the motivation to exercise. Miss P agreed to be a case study for SEERCHI Self-Help Therapy and here are her early reactions: Monday 5th June Today I started my SEERCHI therapy, I composted from 1983 to 1986. It felt a little strange saying the sentences and I didn’t notice anything unusual afterwards so hoped I had done it right. Monday 19th June I have been invited to go on a training and motivation workshop. My employer has recommended a small group of us. I am very nervous about going but feel it is a positive step. Monday 3rd July I spoke to Lyn today to tell her my good news. I attended the workshop and found myself acting quite out of character. I actually stood up at the start of the day and introduced myself, and then later on I found I was quite confident at participating in the role plays etc. Later that evening my Area Manager commented on my participation and said that he felt I had Managerial potential. He would recommend me for the mangers training course. Tuesday 4th July Subconsciously composted 1987 to 1989. Friday 1st August I telephoned Lyn today, to let her know that I have been offered a management position within the store that I work in. |
