From my readings about Dr. Erickson and his methods, I understand that the metaphors and stories he used were left to the individual(s) to make meaning. Based on this, as we use metaphors, is it necessary for them to make sense to the clinician? In other words, can the metaphor/story seemingly be unrelated to the client's situation? As a follow up question, where does the power of the metaphor come from (language, nonverbal communication, i.e.,tone or voice change for certain words)? Thanks,
Trent
