Welcome to the REFRAME Website where you can learn ways for ....

 

WHAT IS the REFRAME Handling Change Approach?

In SHORT: REFRAME is a way of showing you the thinking structure of how you personally hold issues using frames of reference for understanding. These can be adjusted easier than you may think and with less energy than you may consider you need to use.

In LONG: REFRAME is a counselling approach has its roots in Cognitive-Behavioural approaches like REBT, CBT and FAMILY (and other) SYSTEMS, however it also brings together some insight from Jungian approaches in terms of archetypes, symbols, meaning and the structure of meaning gained from insights from Semiotics. REFRAME by its nature has isolated the DNA of most counselling approaches and can be used to accomodate or be used in conjunction with virtually any counselling approach.

REFRAME has a basic level of use where most people can begin and learn to use its tools and then progresses to a deeper level which we call USER LEVEL where you can work issues in a more refined way. Homework tools are common to both levels.

ACCESS to the tools on this REFRAME site hinge on your personal experience and your subscription level.
