From the Paper:

"Though the defensive mechanisms even out and look after the individual, this steadiness limits the naturalness, familiarity, and suppleness so necessary for development. Categories of specific methods include the processes of inquiry, attunement, and involvement. The process of inquiry includes the therapist being open to finding out the client's viewpoint while the client concurrently finds out his or her sense of self with each of the therapist's knowledge improving statements or questions. Attunement is a two-phase process which starts with empathy that is, being responsive to and recognizing with the other's sensations, needs, or feelings and the communication of the sensitivity to another person. Therapeutic involvement is inclusive of 'acknowledgment, validation, normalization, and presence' reduces internal defensive processes."
