The Judgmental Pattern
- Do you get into lots of arguments that don’t get resolved?
- Do people tell you that they get hurt by you?
- Do people avoid you because you’re judgmental?
- Are people always fighting with you?
- Does your partner dissolve in tears when you criticize him/her?
This is the Judgmental Pattern. Click here for more information.XIf you have a Judgmental Pattern, you tend to criticize people when something goes wrong or you are unhappy about the way they are relating to you. When you want someone to change their behavior, you lead with a judgment about what they are doing wrong. You may even be angry or condescending in the process. This doesn't actually work very well in terms of encouraging a person to listen to you. Most likely a person will get defensive or counterattack by blaming you. So this pattern often leads to arguments or fights in which not much is accomplished.
You may find pleasure in picking out the things that people aren't doing to your standards. You may assume that you are right and that other people are wrong or stupid. You may become judgmental whenever you are frustrated with someone.
You might feel judgmental toward people even if you don't express this outwardly. You may just look down on them in your mind while you refrain from showing this. When someone brings up an issue with you that they are concerned about, you may try to convince them that it is really their fault, not yours.

What People Are Saying
"I have processed my Judgmental Pattern on Dr. Jay Earley's Self-Therapy Journey, and I found it to be the next best thing to working with a live therapist for exploring unhealed wounds from the past that led to extreme feelings and beliefs--often leading to problematic behavior and attitudes in the present. It gave me not only clear insights as to how these patterns arose, it also gave me concrete tools for healing them and becoming a more whole and complete human being."
-- Tom Burdenski, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist, Associate Professor of Psychology and Counseling
"I used Self-Therapy Journey to modify a tendency of mine to be judgmental. With a relatively little amount of work, I was able to become more aware of this tendency in my daily life and reduce its occurrence considerably. The benefits have been considerable. Bravo to Dr. Earley for developing this helpful innovation."
-- Michael Karp

Self-Therapy Journey is based on
two comprehensive and powerful systems!
Click here to see a larger version of this chart.
1. The Pattern System®
The Pattern System is a breakthrough in understanding personality, a Periodic Table for psychology, created by Jay Earley, PhD.
It is a systematic approach to understanding your personality oriented toward psychological healing and personal growth, Self-Therapy Journey contains about 25 patterns, which are ways of behaving and feeling that you might want to change, such as people-pleasing, perfectionism, self-criticism, or avoiding intimacy.
Self-Therapy Journey helps you transform each pattern into a healthy capacity, such as assertiveness, ease, self-esteem, or cooperation. It also allows you to heal 14 different emotional wounds from childhood, such as being deprived or judged or feeling unlovable.
Everyone is unique! And the Pattern System recognizes this. You aren't put into a box. You get to understand the details of your particular personality.
The Pattern System provides the psychological content and IFS provides the therapy process.

2. Internal Family Systems Therapy
Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) is on the cutting edge of psychotherapy. It allows you to understand your psyche in a new way and create deep, powerful healing of old emotional wounds and trauma. IFS is a recognized, proven method for individual psychotherapy with a robust training program and thousands of certified therapists.
IFS enables you to understand each of the parts of your psyche, sometimes called sub-personalities. You can think of them as little people inside you. Each has its own perspective, feelings, memories, goals, and motivations. For example, one part of you might be trying to lose weight, and another part might want to eat whatever you want.
We all have many different parts, and we each have a spiritual center, the Self, which is compassionate, understanding, and grounded. Through IFS you can learn to stay in Self, develop a relationship with each of your parts, and heal them.
The key is that the your healing comes from you! This means that you can do IFS on your own, without a therapist, which is what makes Self-Therapy Journey possible.

| I was amazed with the ease of use of STJ and how quickly it helped to identify areas in which I was having difficulty. The guided mediations helped me understand the underlying intention behind my pattern. The homework practice turned out beautifully, allowing me to be more cooperative with others. I learned to re-state confusing feelings in an accepting and loving way. I can now let go of those parts that are no longer serving me.

Learn How Self-Therapy Journey Works with the Judgmental Pattern
XGood Communication involves bringing up your concerns in a way that maximizes the chances that the other person will listen to you and take your concerns seriously. This involves owning your feeling reaction rather than blaming the other person for it. Instead of judging the other person, you describe their behavior and your feeling reaction to it. For example, instead of saying, "You are such an uncaring person because you forgot my birthday," you might say, "When you forgot my birthday, I felt hurt."
It also means being open to hearing other people's concerns and considering your part in the problem, even if they express their concerns in a judgmental way. You are willing to take the other person seriously and really listen to what they are going through. Then you feed it back to them so they feel understood by you. This will help them to calm down and be much more receptive to what you have to say, including when you explain how you see things differently. You are willing to recognize when you need to change your behavior and to acknowledge this.
