Description
Summary:	Leslie S. Greenberg works with a female client in her late 50s who is dealing with major depression and contemplating a divorce. The client is prone to somatization and struggles with various chronic pain issues. She has a history of emotional abuse and trauma with men that has created maladaptive patterns of emotional suppression and withdrawal. Greenberg fosters a safe and empathic environment for emotional exploration and uses role playing and the two-chair technique. Through these techniques, he helps the client process her emotions about her early life experiences and current life changes while increasing her awareness of others' perspectives.
