Find a Therapist in Glenbrook, Ontario.

Psychotherapy is a process in which a trained professional enters a relationship with a client for the purpose of helping the client with symptoms of mental illness, behavioral problems or personal growth. The process involves the client and therapist sitting in a room talking, which is why it is often called "talk therapy". There are now a variety of therapeutic approaches, in addition to psychoanalysis, which are available. These include: cognitive behavioral therapy, behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, hypnotherapy, rational emotive therapy and family approaches.

Psychotherapy is a unique process that allows the client and therapist to develop a relationship that can help correct past trauma and neglect so that the client has all of their energy available for present moment awareness and action. This healing relationship can strengthen and improve a client's present relationships and all aspects of a client's life.

People often come to therapy to get rid of painful and difficult feelings. Rather than getting rid of our feelings, therapy is a skilled process of helping us understand ourselves so we can use our feelings to navigate our lives. Even the very painful feelings hold vital information for us to become sure-footed in our life. Just like in martial arts, we use the momentum of the attacker and redirect it to ensure our safety ; in therapy we use the information from the painful feelings to clarify what we need to create more safety in our lives so we can thrive. It is a valuable process of allowing our feelings to work for us to create satisfying joyful lives.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.
