It is a derivative of psycho-drama based on Jacob Levi Moreno and intended for larger groups. In improvised play, “challenging” issues, e.g. unresolved or still “pending” conflicts, interests or other explosive topics, are openly discussed and acted out in short theater scenes, without too much staging. The goals, rules, target audience, benefits of impro-theater are given in the article. The most important aspects of the “Stop & Act” were described such as: the preparation stage, the script, the game, the actors, go-go-girls, the stage, the audience, the presenter, the feedback and the investment.","PeriodicalId":275300,"journal":{"name":"The Global Psychotherapist","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124692807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although many practitioners resolve these conflicts in their own way, standard and effective methods are needed. The aim of this study is to investigate the Trust-PHAL Method, which includes resolving actual conflict in five stages with five capabilities. There are five capabilities that we use in this method to resolve actual conflict: trustworthiness, politeness, honesty, achievement, loyalty. In other words, the method can be expressed as Trust (trustworthiness) P (Politeness) H (Honesty)A (Achievement) L(Loyalty). Each capability used is consistent with the five phases of positive psychotherapy. In the study, an example is given of how the Trust-PHAL Method is used in the psychotherapy process.","PeriodicalId":275300,"journal":{"name":"The Global Psychotherapist","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129307678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Attention began to be drawn to the fact that experiencing trauma can not only lead to negative consequences, but also can be a source of positive changes in an individual. This phenomenon is defined as post-traumatic growth, which may manifest itself in one (or more) of the four areas of human life. As a result of a traumatic experience, some people may increase the sense of self-confidence and trust in their own abilities, may become convinced of their personal strength and effectiveness, may improve relationships with other people, or begin to appreciate life and have hope for the future’s changes. Post-traumatic growth is more than an adaptive strategy to a post-traumatic situation. Growth means development, i.e. achieving a better level of functioning of the individual than before experiencing the trauma. The development of an individual is part of the Transcultural Positive Psychotherapy (PPT after Peseschkian) objective, which focuses on developing human potential by changing the perspective, enhancing hope, differentiating capabilities, discovering coping skills and finding a sense of meaning even in the most extreme life events. This article aims to show the usefulness of Positive Psychotherapy after Peseschkian in supporting post-traumatic growth. Starting with the characteristics of the post-traumatic growth phenomenon, will discuss the factors correlating with the emergence of positive post-traumatic changes and will finally show how the main principles and tools of this method can be helpful in reinforcing post-traumatic growth.","PeriodicalId":275300,"journal":{"name":"The Global Psychotherapist","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128222629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article presents an empirical analysis of personal resources; their development is the basis of an individual’s psychological well-being and effective functioning, when he/she can realize his/her potential, overcome life’s difficulties effectively and work productively. In this context, the correlations of the components of psychological well-being with self-determination abilities, coping strategies and actual abilities were analysed. The inner orientation, which had the greatest impact on the prognostic model of psychological well-being, correlated with awareness of the meaning of one’s own life, understanding of life goals, and the belief in the ability to achieve them. The primary actual capabilities, which determined emotional experiences in relation to oneself and in interpersonal relationships, correlated with almost all examined indicators. The linear regression analysis that was conducted showed that the primary actual capabilities, namely, hope, love, trust, and time are of special importance in an individual’s achieving one’s positive life priorities.","PeriodicalId":275300,"journal":{"name":"The Global Psychotherapist","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127978689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even if they are the same over a long time, they gain their own new meaning in new situations. Creation myths, classical legends or the repeated basic patterns and archetypes of fairy tales and children’s songs are collective models of understanding. The great psychotherapeutic themes of self-employment, conscience formation, the triangulation conflict, or the threshold situation can be found in them. Narratives used in therapy and counseling depict social norms by which readers or listeners can measure their own belief; on the other hand, they question norms, especially by exaggerating them, and invite people to question their own. The dilemma of the inner conflict, the ‘am-bi-valence’ in value conflicts, the tragedy of experience can often become more understandable in a story than in logical explanations. The patient – therapist – history triangle provides a further dimension of transmission, relieves the dual relationship in its interrelationship, allows both to look together at something third. In literature research the background of narrative therapy is compared with the experiences.","PeriodicalId":275300,"journal":{"name":"The Global Psychotherapist","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128187906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is revealed that the majority of the students with disabilities who were studied are dominated by the hedonistic profile of the time perspective – orientation to fleeting pleasures from the present “here and now”; avoidance of thoughts, meaningfulness of the consequences of their own actions and activities in the future. It is established that the Balanced time perspective of students with disabilities is represented by moderately high indicators of time orientation to the future, low negative past, high hedonistic present. In the profile of an unbalanced time perspective, high indicators of orientation to the negative past, fatalistic and hedonistic present, and low indicators of orientation to the future are expressed. The relationship of a balanced time perspective with the personal qualities of self-determination, self-understanding, self-acceptance, autonomy, self-efficacy and life satisfaction is revealed. Predictors of the time perspective of students with disabilities are: self-acceptance, as a conscious acceptance of the diversity of their own selves; the attitude of others as a resource for developing their own effectiveness and personal autonomy, which allows them to adequately assess their own capabilities, make their own decisions independently and take life responsibly.","PeriodicalId":275300,"journal":{"name":"The Global Psychotherapist","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125360338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
