Tales From the Couch

Random Thoughts on a 40+ Year Psychotherapy Practice

Beschreibung

Tales from the Couch is a memoir of my work with patients. It includes many categories but it is geared toward the lay public. I use many examples to illustrate the issues I deal with. Some topics are: Should you be a Psychotherapist; Looking for Love in all the Wrong Places; Self-esteem; Is there anything worse than being Ordinary; Psychotherapy & Sex; Technology¿s influence on Psychotherapy; Addiction & Social Anxiety disorders; How people deal with Money & Why; Relationship Configurations; Have the issues changed much in 40+ years; Observations on my work with Couples including humor, Acceptance, Anger and the art of fighting, Deal breakers, Infidelity & Communication; Mixed thoughts on medication; Grief & Loss; Connection with your therapist; & Covid¿s influence on psychotherapy. People seek me out during times of great stress, when they feel their lives and feelings are out of control and want a positive change. My goal is to help people understand themselves, resolve problems and lead more productive and rewarding lives. I believe that therapy can help break self-sabotaging patterns by loosening pain & dysfunction tight grip. Even a slight shift in viewpoint can change the way things are seen and internalized. Communication and understanding is a major issue with couples. My goal is to help them resolve their relationship and the problems that plague it. I work with couples of any configuration. All this is to say I try. But I don¿t have a magic wand.
