Title: What is "mirroring and "sponging"" Post by: Kerin Adams on July 28, 2018, 02:31:34 PM I am trying to help a client I have with symptoms of Borderline. In the book Stop Walking on Eggshells it discusses two tools
They are "mirroring and ""sponging"" Another one is DEAR :)escribe, Express, Assert and Reinforce. Does anyone know what these mean as I can't find them discussed in the book. Thanks Title: Re: inquiry Post by: Harri on July 28, 2018, 07:31:23 PM I think you mean DEARMAN which can be found here: https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=160566.0
About mirroring, that is a behavior pwBPD (people with BPD) engage in. I wonder if you are looking for SET (sympathy, empathy, truth) which can be found here: https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=143695.0;all Can I ask what kind of work you are doing with this person?
