Title: Intrapersonal Communication and Interpersonal Communication
Abstract: The chapter discusses the mechanisms involved in intrapersonal and interpersonal communication and learning values, beliefs, and biases and their implicit and explicit interactions with an individual's thinking. Thinking is one type of conscious intrapersonal communication where a message sender and message receiver are the same person. It is a self-confirming process. However, endless internal repetitions of thinking often are distorted as facts without the thinker's awareness as a result of the neurobiology of automaticity. Intrapersonal communication and ethnocentrism, internalized privilege/oppression, types of thinking, types of interpersonal styles, and the formation of automatic thought patterns are discussed. The chapter explores the powerful role of a provider's intrapersonal communication on her perception, worldview, interpersonal communication, and her ability to view the client's worldview. Concrete strategies and personal stories are inserted immediately after concepts for readers to process concepts through both intellectually (conceptually) and affectively (emotionally).
