| Summary: | John Winslade works with Laura, a single mother who feels she is not 'measuring up' to being a good parent. Her family members are critical of her parenting skills with Nate, her 4-year-old son. On top of this stress, Laura's father recently died, and Laura feels guilt over exposing her son to her father's death in ways that may not have been age-appropriate. She feels tremendous guilt and is second-guessing herself. Winslade helps Laura realize that her feelings are not something that Laura produces but are rather a response to messages around her. Winslade invites Laura to think not only about what is problematic and undermining for her but also what is sustaining and resource-giving. He draws out a counterstory from Laura whereby she rejects the criticisms of her and focuses on what can help her. |
