Challenge : 

 I practice cognitive psychology and many people sufferings are based on fear . During my work with   them , I follow three main steps and in each of them I use storytelling . The first step is to examine in   what state person is , what are his thoughts and hopes . During this stage I find that very many people   do n’t have real contact with themselves , so they struggle with giving me the information what is   needed for successful therapy . In cases when traditional question approach does n’t work , I use   storytelling , describing similar cases to direct people to understanding of their emotions and then we   work with it . The second step is specifying what people want to get as the result of our work and   what they need it for . Here storytelling is necessary to give them examples of outcomes of similar   cases , of changes in metal and sometimes physical state of the person . This is done to motivate and   direct . In this assignment I am going to focus on those cases when people had phobia , they wanted   to get free of . After the condition of the person , his hopes , motivation , and fears are clarified we   move to the third step : exposure therapy . This is , as I believe , is the brightest example of   storytelling as an efficient tool of working with human mind . 

 Storytelling is used to create the image as real as its possible , so that person could face it and learn   how to deal with his emotions . Many phobias and fears I worked with are not material ( such as fear   of spiders , for example ) but instead are abstract , or based on the occasion that already happened .   So , here storytelling , based on the previous experience of the person or on imagination , is the only   way of how to get his mind “ into ” this scene . To conclude this paragraph : I use storytelling to give   people similar cases so they can understand their emotions better and to motivate them to try the   methods I suggest , after which storytelling is used to make them face their fears . 

 Application : 

 One of the brightest examples of how storytelling was used during my practice is the case I had with   a person , who was afraid that her mother will die in several years due to the cancer she had . Even   though she had reasons to have this fear , her feeling of panic and desire to run away from the reality   were not the emotions she wanted to live in . I started with describing a very similar case of how one   of my relatives was dying in the hospital due to cancer and was focusing on such details as sounds ,   smells , feelings , and everything that could make this scene as realistic as possible . Her response   was the same as in any other similar case of exposure therapy : she wanted to stop it , run away . This   why the preparation is important , so that people could stick to their desire to get free of their phobias . 

 According to our agreement I continued , describing how I felt that skin of the dying person is getting   colder , how people cried . At some point her panic stopped , she in some way got used to this scene .   In our next session instead of storytelling the experience I had , I started describing how exactly her   mother is going to die of cancer right in front of her . I used the personal information she shared   about her family to make this scene as realistic as possible , including their looks , smells , reactions   and even though it was hard for us both , we were doing that for almost half an hour . This was   repeated several times and at some point , she started dealing with this fear . Even though her   sadness about the situation has n’t gotten away , there was no more panic and instead of denying the   reality she accepted it . 

 Insight & Approach 

 We had further sessions with her even after she learned of how to work with this fear , we were working   on other issues such as how to find hope and feeling of happiness , but the true change was that she was   free of her panic attacks and the anxiety she had was replaced by the pure sadness , which in her case   was the first step of her way to feel good again . At some of our meetings she told me that her mother   died and even though it was sad , it had n’t the devastating effect she was afraid of . She was able to take   control over the situation and her emotions . 

 The two things which I want to mention here is that in both management and psychology two key   factors determine the success of the storytelling : specific details , which make things feel real and 

 meaningful and relevance of the story you are exploring . Even though my English in this assignment was   far from perfect ( I am Russian ) , I hope that I managed to give the reader of this assignment an   interesting non - traditional example of storytelling usage and the insight , that even though escape and   denying is the natural reaction to phobia , the accepting and dealing with it is the efficient one .
