QUESTIONNAIRE FOR CEU COURSE:
FINDING THE COURAGE TO TRUST

The following essay questions refer to ideas, exercises, and models presented in The Courage to Trust. Please respond to each with at a brief paragraph, reflecting from both a clinical and personal perspective. Full credit will be given for a thoughtful response demonstrating you've read and understood the book. I look forward to reading your ideas.

  1. What techniques or mental processes do you use to consciously encourage the trust with new clients?
  1. How, specifically, does childhood abuse and neglect affect your clients' ability to trust themselves?
  1. Refer to the model of the Three Core Selves. How might you use this concept to support someone who feels she or he helpless and frequently feels like a child?
  1. How can you help your clients understand that seeking instant intimacy prevents developing genuine and lasting intimacy?
  1. Clients often get stuck in limited emotional responses to betrayal, such as anger, fear, or self-loathing. How can you assist them to experience a more complete range of feelings?
  1. People seek therapy to help them overcome their inability to leave unhealthy relationships, jobs, or life situations. They feel paralyzed by enmeshment, ambivalence, or fear of abandonment. What can you do to normalize their reasons for hanging on and focus on what they'd need to be able to let go?
  1. What would you add to the list of “Habits That Build Trust With Yourself and Others”?
