Counselling Techniques: Linking Domains of Experience
Channel: Sandra Collins
Date: 2021-05-06

Counsellors often explore different domains of experience with clients. To get a better sense of the overall picture, it is also important to connect client lived experience meaningfully across these various domains: biological; psychological (thoughts, feelings, actions); social; cultural; and systemic. Using the technique of linking domains of experience, it is possible to co-construct a holistic, multidimensional picture of client lived experiences; to thicken the description of client challenges; and to enhance shared understanding of the interconnections among domains. You can view descriptions and video demonstrations for the microskills used in this video and other techniques through my Counselling Microskills and Techniques playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZkRzHU4Rjb00X5yz475ITmTzPepFhXEm.
