For Psychologists
Clinical perspectives on how each value presents in therapeutic settings.
Filter by value
Security
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Addresses the catastrophic cognitions and probability overestimation that drive security-seeking behavior. The structured format resonates with these clients' preference for systematic approaches.
Security
EMDR
Effective when the security-seeking behavior is rooted in specific traumatic experiences of instability or loss. Processing the original experiences of helplessness can reduce the intensity of present-day vigilance.
Security
Somatic Experiencing
Addresses the chronic physiological hyperarousal that these clients maintain as a baseline. Teaching them to track and regulate their nervous system provides an internal sense of safety that reduces dependence on external controls.
