Life Stress Reduction (LSR), part of the larger subject of Applied Metapsychology, is a full program which makes use of a broad array of techniques. A Life Stress Reduction Case Plan is tailored to meet the needs of a particular viewer (client), utilizing a combination of the available techniques to address the particular life issues that people experience: emotional pain, resistance, confusion, relationship or self-image problems, in fact any issues that cause stress.
It also includes techniques that address past traumatic incidents in a less direct way than is done with TIR for individuals who are not ready to face their most traumatic experiences. The LSR Workshop also includes many practical, effective techniques to prepare a client for TIR.

While appropriate for use in a therapeutic setting, and while its results may be viewed as therapeutic in nature, Applied Metapsychology, its methods, and techniques, are a form of highly disciplined and structured integrative education, which results in personal improvement. The structure and safety built into the subject make it well suited for community mental health and peer co-counseling. See also Applied Metapsychology: Therapy or Personal Growth? by Frank A.
