Hi Kathleen, It is not possible to answer your queation fully in this limited medium. At every stage of instruction from basic week to advanced instructor Reality therapy is taught through the medium of role play.All the cases in any of the case history books ('Reality therapy in Action', 'What are you doing',Choice theory in the practice of reality therapy.) will give you an insight into the method.[See book list on this website] The answer to the query by Tara Paras. 2001-10-30 on this board will also be of some help,I think. Wubboldings book on the use of Reality therapy is also very practical
