Residual Therapy

By Bill L. Little

Residual Therapy differs from other therapy only in focus. The focus of this approach is on things left over. I have discovered that we often move on from issues in our lives before we finish resolving them. Solving the major and presenting problems is essential but it is also vital to deal with the "left overs." I have seen couples who had dealt with their presenting problems only to later fail because they had not dealt with the residue of those problems. An example would be drug addicts who stop using drugs after counseling only to fall back into those habits later. Often that is because they have not dealt with the underlying problems that led to abuse in the first place. It is my hope that the material in this book will clarify the need to deal with hidden residue and enable people to live healthier and more balanced lives. That can only happen if we deal with residue. This may require extra time and effort in helping clients uncover and resolve residue. This extra time required has forced me to rethink my desire to reduce counseling time to a minimum. A rapid conclusion may not be the most helpful if we miss dealing with residue. I am exercising more caution in that area of my counseling. I want to uncover the issues that block permanent progress for clients.
