Relationships and Parenting
Many people find it difficult to be invested in relationships, to take a chance, or to be vulnerable. This combination of feelings is precious, yet it's very hard to accept.
-
Suicide
Suicide is driven by self-destructive thoughts which exist on a continuum. Each person is divided; a part wants to live, but part of each person is self-destructive.
-
Violence
Thoughts of being wronged or mistreated produce anger and an impulse to retaliate. When the adversary is demonized, the sense is that violence is justified.
-
Therapy and Theory
Much of Glendon's work is based on Separation Theory, the Fantasy Bond concept, and Voice Therapy methodology developed by Dr. Robert Firestone.
