Holding environments are interpersonal or group-based relationships that enable self-reliant workers to manage situations that trigger potentially debilitating anxiety.
A “containment environment” is a safe and uncomfortable psychological space. Specifically, the holding environment is so uncomfortable that one cannot avoid problems (changes) but safe enough that one can experiment with new ways of being.
Maintaining an environment that provides appropriate adaptation challenges and support to employees, does not overwhelm employees and does not allow them to avoid difficult adjustment tasks.
