Demonology and the Tri-Phasic Model of Trauma: An Integrative Approach

As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:

• His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
• He looked angry;
• He was wearing sunglasses.
