3 Crafty Ways to Challenge Negative Thinking

Challenging someone's deeply ingrained negative ideas can very often lead to argument and one thing you may have found in therapy is that no matter how true a compliment may be, a client with low self esteem can always find a way to dismiss it.
How do we challenge negative thinking like this? In this video I share 3 crafty techniques you can use to subtly challenge the hold that low self esteem can hold on your therapy client.

    Thanks for the video! These are some great tips that I'll try on myself (although I'm not sure I can come up with my own metaphors). 2:55 I think that tip #1 would be better titled "Acknowledge before disagreeing". The example was not agreeing that the client was a lousy mom, it was acknowledging her feelings instead of dismissing them.
