On this episode of Sanity, Dr. Jason Duncan along with Dr.’s Rego, Stern, Szuhany, Pimentel, & von Stietz cover the immense topic of using metaphors, pop-culture, movie/TV show characters, and athletes/sports in therapy sessions. They provide rationale for making these references with therapy clients, and explain how this process has been around since the advent of psychology. These references can be especially helpful to clients as they allow them to build connections between psychological principles, their own experiences, and their interests outside of the therapy room. It assists in making these principles applicable and memorable, which means clients are more likely to incorporate them in their daily lives. Making these connections also allows clients to discuss difficult topics, such as traumatic events, if they can relate them to the experiences of beloved characters/celebrities/athletes. The guests provide guidance on how to utilize these various references in the therapy room and offer advice when a client may be getting the “wrong message.” The combined expertise of these individuals is invaluable to clinicians, clients, and everyone in between. Tune in for a great episode about the importance of utilizing these techniques with clients!
