Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative meta-analysis compares and contrasts European and American approaches to Guided Affective Imagery (GAI). From a comparative review of literature of the European and American approaches, it is observed that there are noteworthy differences in how GAI is understood in theory and applied in practice. In the United States, GAI is not perceived as a method of deep psychotherapeutic intervention for neurotic disorders by most practitioners. In Europe, GAI is one of the more prevalent intervention techniques that has been reported to be effective in many disorders. Secondly, this meta-analysis seeks to identify the essential healing elements of GAI as they are implemented in psychotherapy. Twelve factors are identified from the literature. of fundamental clinical importance is the activation of a patient's "resources," the positive characteristics of an individual that can be accessed to reinforce the patient's ability to deal with a past traumatic experience. GAI provides the imagery context by which the patient may re-experience the trauma. the therapist assists by encouraging the patient to repeatedly utilize internal resources to confront the fearful event. Lasting relief may be conceptualized as repeated resource activation leading to a biochemically-induced remapping at synaptic sites away from the limbic-centered, emotion-based neural path associated with the traumatic event toward the prefrontal cortex-centered, cognitive-based path of appropriate behavior.
