Description The article introduces so called "clean language" or "clean approach" – one of the post-modern oriented therapeutical approaches, building on the ideas of the late David Grove. The way of facilitating the therapeutic session is specific in the "cleanness" from the therapists conscious and unconscious contents it strives for in the interaction. This allows the client to immerse himself deeper in his own mind-body processes and their organization. After the theoretical background, the article focuses on the practical example of how is possible to "let emerge" metaphors, self-reflections insights or "aha!" moments for the client. In the concluding part, the text offers a discussion of the principles of the clean approach and the ways it can be inspiring for the therapists.
