Just recalled this, and it seemed so hokey beforehand. In rehab for alcohol, a counselor had me write a letter to a person who had been instrumental during an unpleasant period in my life. 'Just write it the way you would if you could say everything you want to say.'
I did that. Then she had me visualize the person in question sitting silently in a chair in front of me and had me read the letter aloud to the invisible person. Finally, she told me to visualize that person standing up silently and walking out of the room, out of my head and out of my life.
I wouldn't have believed it could be effective, but it was.
