I see the crises we are facing, among them the financial crisis. And like you, I have seen in clients the effects of ancient feelings and wounds on their attitudes, emotional states, and behaviors in relation to the present economic situation. http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/a-unique-learning-about-power/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/a-unique-learning-about-power/ Fri, 28 Aug 2009 21:21:48 GMT http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/money-matters/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/money-matters/ Sat, 28 Mar 2009 11:00:57 GMT http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/deep-change-healing-your-relationship-with-power/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/deep-change-healing-your-relationship-with-power/ Thu, 7 May 2009 20:39:13 GMT http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/deep-change/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/deep-change/ Tue, 30 Nov 1999 06:00:00 GMT http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/election-reflection/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/election-reflection/ Tue, 30 Nov 1999 06:00:00 GMT http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/power-used-well-misused-sexuality/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/power-used-well-misused-sexuality/ Thu, 22 Oct 2009 21:11:47 GMT "Every form of power can be used well or misused. http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/benjamin-button-psychology/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/benjamin-button-psychology/ Wed, 4 Mar 2009 14:32:07 GMT Today I saw the movie, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. It was a deeply moving film. I recommend it highly. And I also wish for you that you allow it to open your heart to yourself and others in a new way. http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/healthcare-reform-fear/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/healthcare-reform-fear/ Wed, 14 Oct 2009 13:26:29 GMT So much is being said and felt about healthcare reform. But do we know if our fears surrounding the issue of healthcare reform are from the here-and-now, or from once-upon-a-time long, long ago? http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/psychology-holidays-self/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/psychology-holidays-self/ Mon, 21 Dec 2009 17:28:19 GMT The lyrics of the song say, ?There?s no place like home for the holidays.?* Is this true for you? http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/psychology-love/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/psychology-love/ Tue, 30 Nov 1999 06:00:00 GMT The lyrics of the song say, ?There?s no place like home for the holidays.?* Is this true for you? http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/misogyny/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/misogyny/ Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:55:55 GMT GoodTherapy.org Featured Column written by Judith Barr, MS, LPC http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/therapy-new-years-resolutions/ http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/therapy-new-years-resolutions/ Wed, 13 Jan 2010 19:02:59 GMT Promises, resolutions, commitments.

A world that doesn't understand and therefore is frightened of the darkness. As a consequence of holding the fear at bay, that fear gets distorted into hatred of the darkness, denial of darkness, scapegoating of the darkness. And in scapegoating the darkness, we also scapegoat anything or anyone that triggers in us memory of the darkness - memory of a conscious or unconscious experience of the darkness within us that needs to be explored, healed, and transformed. We live in a time where we are all going through darkness in some way communally and individually. Just like anything else, this passage can be misused and abused, or it can be used well and for magnificent good!* http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/making-the-world-safe-from-the-inside http://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/making-the-world-safe-from-the-inside Thu, 17 Sep 2009 17:44:46 GMT A few weeks ago, I spent the morning with a group of financial planners in Atlanta. It was a delicious experience . . . from the moments before my talk began, when several of the members introduced themselves and thanked me for coming to their meeting . . . through the talk, and two heart-touching demonstrations of my work with the root of people's relationships with money . . . to the harvesting, during which many participants acknowledged they realized they knew they needed to do their own work for themselves and they knew they needed to do their own work if they were going to help their clients.*
