Description
Book SynopsisRadio silence someone breaks off contact with others without notice. For some it is a liberation, for others it is the beginning of a torturous time. An agreement seems impossible. How can systemic therapists and counselors support the abandoned and abandoned in this situation? Systemic work in families with broken contacts usually starts at the point when one of the two parties comes and spreads their world of experience. On both sides, the focus is on suffering and a lack of salvation - that is often the only thing they have in common at first. Two (or more) constructions of reality meet they seem to be dealing with different worlds that exist in parallel. Very different time levels also come into play. Whether, how and when system members can find each other again depends very much on our approach and the exploration of the respective possibilities. It is important to carefully navigate around cliffs and patiently open up spaces for encounters and opportunities. Christiane Jendrich explains the background to the topic of breaking up contact and relationship and communication patterns and presents a tried-and-tested model for counseling and therapy that helps to understand radio silence and can show ways out. Numerous detailed case studies and working materials supplement this practical guide.
