The following paper will discuss the dynamics of structured image framework theory (SIFT) and how the model directly corresponds to known brain structures. SIFT allows clients to understand both how they process everyday emotions and heightened emotional distress and how that emotional distress corresponds to and mirrors recent neurological understanding of how the brain operates. The SIFT model has been developed from thousands of client descriptions of clinical treatment over the past 25 years—from childhood dynamics, a variety of psychopathologies, community settings, and disasters through to war-service adjustment. SIFT enables the client and the therapist to use a structure that can be flexibly applied to a variety of emotionally distressing processes. The SIFT base model enables the therapist to clearly describe brain structures and functions that correspond to an applied diagram. The SIFT diagrammatic structure highlights what clients have experienced during typical or difficult emotional processing situations. This encourages normalization, initiates adaptive processing mechanisms, and secures a stronger therapeutic alliance in a timely fashion, which increases positive therapeutic outcomes.
