I’ve done that too and I too agree with article. ‘Strategies’ suggests a more personally integrated approach to what works in the moment, but (I reckon) it’s a loaded, boring word - what else works to describe this?

“Do you think maybe there’s a part of you that steps in to (abc) when (xyz)…” is language my clients like because they really get it. I like it in my own PT too. Easier to conceptualise psychodynamic concepts with parts language

Lifecycle stages seem to impact this-I see mostly women, and late teens, early 30s, and early 60s are all big existential shifts (hormones probably influence). Nutshell - a multi-pronged solution incl top-down nervous system regulation (breathing etc) and being *really* listened to/understood

I think working to increase reflective functioning, and ability to integrate with the fear understood and managed would be a pathway to a more ‘life-enhancing’ experience of anxiety

I suspect the type of training impacts this. As a therapist I’m more at ease with the ‘dark night of the soul’ stuff than the clinicians whose training begins with a medical degree (at least here in Australia where few psychiatrists offer any kind of counselling).

We had Cozolino (& Teyber) as required reading but even so, yes. Even in my ‘good’ masters program no underpinning (precious little about attachment) and under-emphasis on self-inquiry to understand relationships
