Phobias
1. An 8 years old child
developed school phobia. The parents
reported no significant event took place in
the last few months prior to therapy. MT
suggested a conflict between the child and
her teacher. The child could not shed any
more light on the issue at first, but, later
at home she could tell her mom that her
teacher blamed her that she is bullying
other kids and that she needs to stop this
behavior or the teacher will talk to her
parents. The girl was afraid to tell her
parents about that, worrying they will
punish her. She told that these warnings
went on for few weeks. Her tension grew up
till she refused to go to school anymore.
IPEC Therapy combined with play therapy
helped the child to get out of this mental
block of being trapped between the teacher
and her parents. After few sessions, she was
able to return to school, not before her
parents had a long talk with the teacher.
2. A woman in her early
forties had developed high anxiety prior to
going through a simple medical procedure.
She knew that there is relatively very low
risk, but, found herself uncontrollably
obsessing about the possible adverse results
of this procedure. IPEC therapy helped her
in unblocking emotional connections to her
early childhood. These blocks connected to a
period when her family lived under
conditions close to poverty, and when any
one in her family got sick, they could not
afford getting the minimal needs in order to
alleviate the condition. When these blocks
were removed, she went through the
procedure, relaxed, and anxiety free.
