The WTW Communication Hierarchy

In the WTW system, once you reach the stage of Strategic Communication, you select a “Level” based on the current state of your relationship and how much previous effort has been ignored.

 

Stage I
Starting a Dialogue
  • WTW Context: Used during Stage 5 when you first identify the “Specific Life Problem Area.”

  • Purpose: To address constant bickering and power struggles.

  • Focus: Identifying underlying causes (like built-up resentment) to reduce hostility and return to a protective, caring dynamic.

  • Goal: Creating a “Therapy Letter Script” that serves as an initial olive branch.

Stage II
Expressing Disappointment
  • WTW Context: Used during Stage 6 if the initial attempt at communication was ignored.

  • Purpose: To clearly indicate disappointment regarding the lack of response.

  • Focus: Discussing the need to set emotional boundaries for your own health and well-being.

  • Goal: Moving from “Dialogue” to “Assertive Self-Protection.”

Stage III
Final Notice & Well-being
  • WTW Context: This transitions the user into Stage 7 (Insight and Integration) and Stage 9 (Purposeful Closure).

  • Purpose: A third and final attempt to engage the receiver.

  • Focus: Explicitly stating that since feelings are being ignored, you must now prioritize your emotional survival.

  • Goal: Making future decisions without further input from the other person—choosing “Emotional Reset.”

Emotional Abuse

I need you to respect the limits that I am setting with you in my life.

Level I

Establishing Personal Limits

An initial attempt to communicate the need for healthy boundaries. It explains the sender’s commitment to becoming a stronger individual and finding inner peace, while inviting the receiver to respect these new limits to maintain the relationship.

Level II

Concerns Over Disrespect

Sent when initial boundaries are ignored. This level expresses deep disappointment that limits are still being violated and emphasizes the need for a serious conversation before the sender is forced to make decisions for their own well-being.

Level III

Prioritizing Emotional Health

The final attempt to reach out when all previous efforts to set boundaries have failed. It clearly states that because the receiver has shown no effort to change, the sender must now move forward independently to ensure their own safety and health.

CONFRONTATION LEVELS

In the “Confront Someone Category” the user will always find 3 Therapy Letter Options to choose from reflecting 3 Different Levels of Confrontation.

Initial Attempt to Communicate

Specific language for repairing marriages and resolving intimacy or commitment This is an initial attempt to talk about an issue and open a dialogue with the receiver. It serves as a respectful first step to address concerns, share feelings, and invite the other person to engage in a productive conversation to resolve the problem..

Second Attempt for Response

A second attempt sent after the initial letter was met with no response. It clearly indicates disappointment regarding the lack of effort from the receiver and discusses the possibility of setting firm limits or boundaries if the silence continues.

Final Attempt & Specific Limits

This is the third and final attempt to engage the receiver when previous attempts failed. It ensures the receiver realizes that definite plans are being made to set specific boundaries, making it clear that the sender must prioritize their own well-being.
