    Alexis's Existing Situation
      Seeks to share a bond of understanding intimacy in an esthetic atmosphere of peace and tenderness.

    Alexis's Stress Sources
      The existing situation is disagreeable. Feels lonely and uncertain as she has an unsatisfied need to ally herself with others whose standards are as high as her own, and wants to stand out from the rank and file. This sense of isolation magnifies the need into a compelling urge, all the more upsetting to her self-sufficiency because of the restraint she normally imposes on herself. Since she wants to demonstrate the unique quality of her own character, she tries to suppress this need for others and affects an attitude of unconcerned self-reliance to conceal her fear of inadequacy, treating those who criticize her behavior with contempt. However, beneath this assumption of indifference she really longs for the approval and esteem of others.

    Alexis's Restrained Characteristics
      An unadmitted lack of confidence makes her careful to avoid open conflict and she feels she must make the best of things as they are.
      Unhappy at the resistance she feels whenever she tries to assert herself. However, she believes that there is little she can do and that she must make the best of the situation.


    Alexis's Desired Objective
      Considers the existing circumstances disagreeable and over-demanding. Refuses to allow anything to influence her point of view.

    Alexis's Actual Problem
      The need for esteem--for the chance to play some outstanding part and make a name for herself--has become imperative. She reacts by insisting on being the center of attention, and refuses to play an impersonal or minor role.

    Alexis's Actual Problem #2
      Disappointment and the fear that there is no point in formulating fresh goals have led to anxiety, emptiness, and an unadmitted self-contempt. Her refusal to admit this leads to her adopting a headstrong and defiant attitude.
