Find a Therapist in Lebanon, Oregon.

I draw from a variety of Experiential techniques (psychotherapy methods that work directly in session, with your present inner experience) to uncover painful perspectives held by distressed, inner-conflicted parts--which can take over & cloud your view of life. My preferred method is Internal Family Systems (IFS) which allows us to safely get to know the story & wisdom each part holds about the source of distress & what you need to heal. Listening in this mindful, compassionate way, to parts holding guilt, shame, anxiety, despair, burdens & conflicts allows for new understanding of conditions needed to heal. IFS teaches you how to soothe your internal system, whenever life challenges occur.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Some people wonder why they should pay to be listened to. Why not just talk to a friend? We all need friends; they are vital to our well being. However, friends have a personal investment in how you are doing. They want you to feel better so they can feel better. They want you to listen to them, too. They may not know how to help you. Your therapist offers skills and tools and support without judgment or expectation. Therapy is a safe place to explore your innermost self and heal old patterns that no longer work. Therapists are trained to help you, are bound by ethical principles, and you never need to concern yourself with how your therapist is feeling that day. Also, psychotherapy works!
