Laura S. Brown works with a middle-aged male client who wishes to explore the effect of past relationships on present behavior. When he was 11 years old, his parents divorced and his father was absent from his life for 2 years. Brown helps the client to define the survival strategy he developed of lowering all affect and withdrawing from close relationships to avoid further pain. She engages the client in a guided exercise to reveal the fear that drives his automatic response to keep those he loves at a distance. She supports and empowers him by clarifying the choices he has already made to be a supportive and loving husband and father.
