Description
Summary:	Jeffrey J. Magnavita demonstrates his personality-guided relational psychotherapeutic approach with an adult woman in an ongoing abusive and toxic relationship with her mother. During their third session, the client reports that her outbursts toward her own daughter have improved and that she feels more relaxed after processing painful emotions and memories in the previous session. Magnavita continues to work with the client on asserting herself with her mother while avoiding displacing her anger on to her own daughter. The therapist and client engage in role playing to further activate her anger responses toward her mother and work through her issues with emotional suppression.
