My Approach to Helping
My philosophy has shifted towards positive psychology since the late 1990's. I now try to help my clients grow towards their potential as human beings. I use many traditional therapies but have slanted them towards these objectives. A key factor was my development of a structured protocol called "Best foot Forward." Its orignial purpose was to stabilize my trauma clients but because it used promising body poistions and projective visualization techniques, surprising resources popped up that my clients could not have recalled through direct interview. These resources brought joy and satisfaction and often caused a major shift towards personal growth. In the process, the symptoms they had originally wanted help with often slipped away. My clients basically acquired more accessible and useable personality strengths.
