Dr. Bowen Talking to the Special Postgraduate Program, Tape VB0472, Part Three from TMBAP on Vimeo.
How do you make contact with even the lowest functioning person, especially if they aren’t very verbal? Dr. Bowen points out that “they’re dying to tell you about it if you can ask the right questions.” Something accounts for people not being very verbal, and if you can break through that outside shell, then you can have a relationship with them. He notes, “If you can cause people to want to talk to you, you’re priceless to those other people because they probably are having problems contacting others.” That ability to communicate is the basis of a good relationship. From June 7-8, 1988.
