Clients are already speaking in metaphor  Every therapist notices it. The client says they are carrying something, or drowning, or spiralling, or stuck or foggy. Most of us make a mental note and carry on talking or listening.

The metaphor was an opening. It usually closes again within a minute.

Show Me Metaphor is about catching it and staying there. The client's own metaphor becomes an image, and the 9 Core Questions plus supplementary questions specifically designed for Metaphors, allow exploration of its meaning.

Show Me. 9 Core Questions. Completely Client Led. Part of The ChrisLin Method.

None of them asks why. You do not name, diagnose or interpret for them. You provide the structure. The meaning stays entirely with the client.
