For example, consider a case in which a father is angry at his daughter for getting pregnant. The daughter withdraws emotionally as her father vents his anger at her. The therapist reframes the father’s anger into caring by stating, “I can see how concerned you are for your daughter. You had so many dreams for her and you are worried that they will not be possible now. You must have a great deal of love for your daughter for her missteps to make you so angry.” The father might then respond sadly, “You are damned right. I am afraid that she has ruined her future, and she could have HIV—she won’t tell me if she has been tested.” The therapist would then turn to the daughter and say, “Did you know that your dad is worried about you?”
