Concrete Anchor Required
A complete review requires a specific episode anchor rather than a vague general pattern.
Emotion Episode Review for Process Mapping
Emotion Episode Review is a collaborative EFT tool for practitioners and clients reviewing one clinically important emotional episode together. It helps anchor the episode in a concrete situation and organize trigger, appraisal, feeling, meaning, need, bodily response, action tendency, response pattern, and practitioner-labeled hypothesis or intervention target.

One Episode Per Review
If multiple episodes are mixed together, they should be separated into distinct reviews.
Hypotheses Stay Labeled
Practitioner hypotheses and intervention targets are separate from client-reported episode data.
Does the tool recommend the next intervention?
No. The practitioner records the hypothesis or intervention target; the system does not generate treatment recommendations.
Can a review be partial?
Yes. Elements can remain unknown when unsupported, as long as the review is anchored in a concrete episode.
Does this create a core emotion scheme automatically?
No. It reviews one episode and does not generalize automatically to a recurring core pattern.
