What are Psychotherapy Services?
Psychotherapy Services are spaces that are confidential, non-judgmental, warm, and egalitarian. These are places developed so children, individuals, couples, families, and groups can use a safe space to have a resource outside of their daily lives who can support them through any issues that may arise.
Possible Principles of Psychotherapy Practice:
Change is Possible
a. People can change, want to change, and they can change for the better. We believe change looks different for everyone, and what motivates people and what values they hold are all important to understand to help them align with change and grow for the better.
Understanding is Key
b. Understanding is vital for change to happen. Without understanding, which is synonymous with compassion, change will not be lasting.
Adaptation is necessary for Optimal Health
c. Our health is reliant on positive adaptation and change. Our short-term and long-term health relies on us to lower stress and to see stress as a positive change agent.
Authentic Caring Persons make a Difference
d. The premise of psychotherapy is that your therapist is a genuinely invested person who you can feel wants you to excel in your life. You can feel they are truly caring, and at the same time, you feel they have no expectations from you, but are available to you when you need them, without judgment.
The Frontal Cortex: Where Healing Happens
e. Our executive functioning is where true change and health lie. Our frontal cortex is what makes us truly human and guardians of this earth.
We are the Source of our own Happiness
f. Our relationship to ourselves comes first. We must apply kindness, patience, love, compassion, and empathy to ourselves first for these skills to be authentic to apply to others, coming from a place where we are whole within ourselves to give to others with service.
The details of these and other specific therapies can be explored when the time is right such as Psychodynamic therapy is about learning how your past affects your present. Building a blueprint of critical incidents is important to understand personality and how that differs with other nuanced therapies like EMDR, which is about how to create new neuropathways but the prior broader information is given so things are easy to digest.
