From my point of view, every one of us is capable of peace and happiness. If the mind is not cluttered with dark or negative thoughts, and if there are no blocks to your emotions, and if there is not something out of whack in your thought processes, you will revert back to your ‘default setting’…happiness or contentedness. The devil is in the details, however, as if it were that simple, everyone would be content/happy, and no-one would suffer emotional pain for any length of time.

“The Golden Rule” can be a helpful guide to psychotherapy: treating others as you would like to be treated, with gentleness, pacing, and respect. If a counseling session is likened to conversing with a knowledgeable advisor on the doorstep of your home, psychotherapy can be like inviting that advisor into the “parlor” or “living room” of your inner world based on trust, at-ease-ness, and confidence in your advisor’s insight.

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.

Psychotherapy is also known as talk therapy. Lots of different techniques fall under this umbrella and it is used to treat various types of emotional challenges. It can be used to gain insights about yourself, your values and goals, and improve your relationships. It is most successful when the relationship between the client and therapist is trusting and open.

Psychotherapy is a challenging journey; the benefits of your hard work, time and tears will be worth every moment spent on my couch. Depression lifting, anxiety subsiding and relationships healed are all byproducts of the amazing psychotherapy work that I have witnessed with my clients. Be it wounds from your family of origin (the family you grew up with) or a harsh boss or a broken heart, having the space to talk and be heard, receive validation and feel safe are many of the benefits of psychotherapy. I urge you to trust the process, the psychotherapy relationship can be a truly healing process.
