| Description | This chapter provides a definition of therapeutic journaling, describes journaling as an adjunct to clinical practice, and shares best practices for integrating therapeutic journaling into working with clients. Therapeutic journaling is any type of writing or expressive process intended for personal growth and psychological healing. Journaling can be an adjunct to clinical practice: it is an enhancement of and not a replacement for therapy. Therapists must still rely on their experience, skill as a clinician, and their relationship to the client and must still deal with the presenting therapeutic issue and the safety of the client. As the suppression of emotions and the holding of traumatic memories takes energy, journaling can create a new narrative as a healing story available for self-reflection. Client participation, such as the cost-effective use of an autobiographical statement, adds to the usefulness of journaling. Mnemonic devices such as ATTENDD assist both the client and the therapist, strengthening the therapeutic work. Book Name: Transformational Journaling for Coaches, Therapists, and Clients |
