Behind the Therapy Door
Episode 16: It’s fine, everything’s fine… (Phase Issue)
The quest for efficiency and order is life blood for Thinker Types. In efforts to avoid negative emotions or acknowledgement of loss or perceived failure, Thinker Type personalities can become frustrated and attempt to control self and others. When in distress, this control can be administered with criticism and an exaggerated aversion to drama or time waste. On the flip side, their rich focus on data and logic can be a powerhouse in getting plans made and the outcome accomplished. Learning how to acknowledge underlying loss and grief, rather than covering up with frustrated anger, is the key to finding balance for Thinker Types.
