2016

AbstractIn this research process, Stiles’ assimilation of problematic experiences scale is used to study Olivia’s process of change. The objectives of this study are: first, to describe Olivia’s therapeutically successful assimilation of the problematic experience of fear of dying, treated with brief strategic therapy; and second, to study how that pattern of assimilation unfolded. We can conclude that Olivia assimilated her problematic experience of fear of dying by following a fluctuating and irregular pattern.
