If you are feeling sad, mad, scared, having relationship problems, or sexual difficulties, psychotherapy can be helpful. Psychotherapy (or therapy or counseling) is a way to assess your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and determine what is working for you and what could be better. Therapy is about change. What would you like to change in your life? Just because a person comes to therapy, it does not mean that he/she has a mental problem. Many people come to therapy to simply better their lives and help their families.

Family therapists are not generally thought of as psychodynamic in nature. As a Bowenian therapist, however, I have a strong affinity for the psychotherapeutic approaches. As such, I believe that the family unit, and by default the individual members of the family system, are deeply affected by the intergenerational patterns that repeat over multiple generations. Identifying these patterns and evaluating their effect on family members offers key insights about how and why the family functions as it does. Schedule your assessment at Chrysalis Connections and begin the process of constructing your genogram, or family map, and locate the unique intergenerational patterns of your family.

The goal of psychotherapy is to alleviate distress through talk therapy rather than medication. It helps the client become more self aware by identifying feelings, thoughts, behaviors, and attitudes. The client then has a better understanding of self, and the cause of the emotional turmoil. The therapy process continues as the client gains knowledge about how to cope in a more positive way by changing thought patterns, developing skills and focusing on resolution.
