Description of Trance and The Transformation of Identity

The Work of Stephen Gilligan, Ph.D.

When events happen in a life, whether it be trauma or developmental changes, identity shifts occur. When the identity of a person is no longer what it was and they have not yet fully moved into their new identity, they are in a transition that Gilligan calls trance. This DVD includes his comments about this occurrence and follows up with two sessions of clinical practice with individuals. After he explains his model, he demonstrates the work with each of the clients. In the final section called further work he guides the viewer to continuing work with this method.
