Therapy needs to be about trust, honesty and rapport. Sounds nice and cliche, doesn't it. Let me explain.
People decide to enter therapy for a myriad of reasons but the, oversimplified, common denominator bringing people to therapy is some form of struggle with relationships. Granted the boiling point that stirs the person to take the courageous leap to honestly look at themselves may be caused by some specific significant event. Yet, the ultimate reason most people seek help is because they want to maintain, create, or stabilize a relationship in their life. Nobody wants to be alone. We all seek companionship, a feeling of being connected. For those struggling with substance abuse, alcoholism, or any other compulsive deviant behavior, it is the "using" or the intoxication that provides the sought after companionship. Sometimes the relationship we seek is, in fact, with ourselves. You can't love others if you don't love yourself.
In order to effectively explore missteps or obstacles in your relationships, I will examine our therapeutic relationship as it truly serves as the most informative insight in to your personal relationships. All people naturally thrive at self-improvement if we remove the personal obstacles creating our barriers toward growth. Whether you're looking to succeed at work, at love, or at simply coping with daily stress, I will guide you in exploring and removing these obstacles. In therapy, we wont over-analyze the problems; we'll address the solutions. We'll try to understand the core of the struggle you are experiencing. Once we have that level of understanding, we can properly explore and remove your obstacle and discover healthy solutions. I find the existential-humanistic and the cognitive-behavioral perspectives and models to be productive and effective in therapy. However, to work through unprocessed traumatic event(s) or a series of events that have created a deeply rooted negative belief about oneself I utilize EMDR as an effective tool and treatment.
Do me a favor, for the next line, close the eyes of the part of you that wants to give up... Closed?... Ok; If you are reading this then I've touched the part of you that cares for you. Listen to this healthy part of you and take the next step to healing and succeeding. Remove your obstacles. Clear your path!
