New Trends in Psychotherapy Offer Shorter Stays and Focused Problem Solving Techniques

By Julie June 5, 2008 11:17am 11 Comments

JulieC

With mental health benefits being slashed or all together disappearing, consumers & insurance companies are looking for ways to get in and out of therapy quickly by strategically targeting specific problems. As an old school psychodynamic, existential and humanistic therapist I am impressed with emerging theories of psychological thought …

5 Things To Ask a Therapist on the 1st Call

By Cyndi May 29, 2008 5:03pm 5 Comments

CSR

Once you have received the names and telephone numbers of a couple of therapists (see my Blog titled How to Find a Good Therapist) then you will want to call each one with a clear set of questions. The initial conversation should be short -- no more than 15 minutes maximum. For this reason you will want to be clear and concise and get your …

5 Things Never to Tell Your Shrink

By Julie May 28, 2008 10:10am 29 Comments

JulieC

In fact, the decision can be so stressful that some people wait until they are in crisis and/or have exhausted all others ways of trying to solve their problems. But, once on the "couch," relief sets in as they realize that therapy is a worthwhile investment of time and money. …

Soooo close

Friday, July 25, 2008 | A Frustrating story

Katie is coming over to dad's tomorrow for an overnight stay. So close yet, so far. It is very, very frustrating to have her right nextdoor yet, not be able to even say "hi" to her. I miss her so much. I just hope we get the chance to tell her that all of this hasn't been our choice. Part was the judge and part was the in-laws, though, I even hate t...

Friday, July 25, 2008 | A Frustrating story

Just feel like screaming and shouting but don't know if amyone will understand or listen. Tired of medications that do not work. Think I should just accept the fact that I probably wont get the...

Friday, July 25, 2008 | A General Update story

So on monday night I was flat out on the street with a bag, that Javid didn't even want to give me time to pack. Homeless again, right back where I vowed I would never be again. No money, no one to turn too, or at least that is what I was telling myself at the time, totally preparing myself for the role of victim- I had no idea what had happened, Javid just switched the script hal...

My "rude" student from the other night apologized, and so did I. She was one of two who failed the class, and they were warned. I am very pleased with the class. The final was last night. I got a natural high from the whole process - teaching a class math and seeing their progress. WOW. Who'd know.
