circular questioning

Circular questioning is a therapeutic technique that explores the relationships and patterns within a group's or individual's experiences by asking questions that highlight different perspectives. Instead of focusing on a single person's problem, the therapist asks questions that consider how others might see or be affected by a situation. This helps clients understand their interactions and how their behavior influences others. By examining these connections, clients can gain insights, challenge patterns, and develop more effective ways to relate and solve problems. It promotes awareness and encourages solutions that consider multiple viewpoints, fostering deeper understanding and change.
