Find a Therapist in Millerton, Pennsylvania.

I provide brief solutions-focused psychotherapy to help clients assess personal and professional functioning, clarify goals, and strengthen social and emotional skills. I specialize in brief online relationship counseling. Online counseling allows clients to seek help as needed, engage in therapy at a schedule that's convenient to them, and keep their counselor as they progress through life. I work with LGBTQ and hetero clients on individual, couple, and alternative relationship concerns. Clients explore issues that impact their professional and personal relationships, including communication, power dynamics, and intimacy. I accept US$ and cryptocurrencies.

Psychotherapy is a process that many people find helpful to learn more about themselves and the challenges they face in daily life. Most problems stem from patterns that evolve over time as a way of trying to adapt to difficult childhood conditions, family conflicts, loss, etc. Clients find that by understanding these patterns, they can recognize “choice points” and find ways to interrupt old patterns and replace them with more supportive patterns and perspectives. Clients report that in overcoming symptoms and challenges, they experience an increased ability to enjoy their lives with a renewed sense of vitality, meaning and purpose.

“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. My approach to psychotherapy is interactive and strengths-based, starting with cognitive (thought-based) or behavioral coping skills, and moving into awareness of family of origin themes and the impact of past trauma when needed to activate more enduring personal growth in the client.

Simply put, counseling involves helping the client to understand how negative thoughts and feelings lead to dysfunctional behaviors. To achieve this goal, we work on increased self awareness to support a more positive response to our lives. We focus on how current and/or past life experiences have shaped our current situation and how to break out of this cycle.

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.
