A systematic approach to diagnosis and treatment of clients with feeling dysfunction in the context of psychosomatic disease is described as a sequel to “A Systematic Approach to Psychosomatic Disease” (Cartmel, 1986). A “language of feelings” used to increase client awareness is described, and a classification of feeling dysfunction is presented as an aid to diagnosis and treatment of psychosomatic disease. Clinical examples of diagnosis and treatment are given.
