filing system therapy

Filing system therapy is a therapeutic approach that helps individuals organize and process their memories, thoughts, and feelings—similar to organizing files in a cabinet. It involves identifying emotional experiences, understanding their connections, and "fileting" them to gain clarity and emotional relief. By systematically sorting and integrating these internal "files," clients can reduce confusion, address unresolved issues, and develop healthier coping strategies. This method promotes mental organization, enhances self-awareness, and fosters emotional healing through structured reflection and processing.
