We cover over our real desires and feelings because it doesn't seem safe to expose them, and then we live our lives separated from our true selves. I think of psychotherapy as the deeper work that involves first uncovering, then understanding and experiencing, and finally embracing the person that can just be...themselves. It's a difficult journey at times, but it allows one to engage with the mysterious wonder of being alive, of making choices, and feeling ownership of who they are in this world.

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.

Individual therapy is a collaborative process between the therapist and the client. It is a unique relationship that offers support, perspective, and new skills that can help a person confront barriers that interfere with emotional and mental well-being. Patterns and habits that were once effective may no longer be working and could be preventing you from being where you want to be. Therapy can increase positive feelings, self-esteem, and provide a renewed sense of self that is strong and clear.
