underlying assumption that comes directly after the thought. The counselor and client can then break down what that assumption means to the client and whether or not it should be considered reasonable or distorted. Another method of approach is called “thought stopping” which teaches clients to stop automatic thoughts that keep running. It works by verbally saying stop or picturing a stop sign and force themselves to stop their train of thought. Roleplaying is another effective way to verbalize thoughts and challenge underlying assumptions, changing them into more positive thoughts, preventing catastrophizing or jumping to conclusions caused by cognitive distortions.

Some individuals will commence to crying for no reason, or suddenly become apprehensive or exasperated, which often scares, or astounds them. Excruciating trauma and emotions are concurrent, and part of the rejuvenating process is to be open to emotions that come up. The event that took place is not what determines whether an individual has been traumatized; opposed to being exposed to the event that took place. How a given person will react to a particular event is unpredictable. For an individual who is accustomed to controlling their emotions, it may be disconcerting to discover

This study is postulated on the theories, concepts and principles regarding on Workplace Bullying and its impact on employees productivity and performance. According to Einarsen’s conceptual framework Model (see Figure 1) of the nature and cause of workplace bullying (Einarsen 2003; as cited in Einarsen, 2005), three elements can describe the causes of workplace bullying: individual, social and organizational. Hoel and Stalin (2003; as cited in Lewis, 2004) suggested that there are four antecedents to organizational causes of workplace bullying, namely: the changing nature of work, how work is organized, the organizational culture, and leadership. The changing nature of work can be attributed to globalization, mergers and the current economic recession, among others (McCarthy, 2003). ‘How work is organized’ and the ‘leadership style’ of the organization can produce role conflict and poor work control (Einarsen, Raknes and Matthiesen, 1994; as cited in Jennifer, 2000). Thus, it is up to the culture of the organization to set a precedent for unambiguous work flow, higher production, and zero tolerance for workplace bullying.
