You want to change your feelings, thoughts, or behaviors, but every time you try something different, it ends up blowing up in your face. (Not literally…hopefully.) How do you get unstuck from this pattern?! There are two main answers – at least, according to this clinician. By far the most important factor in your success in therapy is the relationship with your therapist. So if you don’t like me, please tell me to take a hike. But also, I’m pretty decent at helping people achieve their goals. (At least that’s what they tell me.)
And as much as I may be in the most privileged of demographics (white and male), I’ve taken a lifetime’s worth of feeling inferior and deployed it for good: Being able to empathize with you, the client.
What needs to happen is a disruption in the pattern of your brain’s old way of doing things. My practice mostly revolves around increasing your awareness of what’s happening in your mind and your body – and above all, respecting your experience. This takes work, but with the help of someone you trust, you absolutely can change the structure of your brain!
