I don't have anything poetic to say about the therapeutic process. I think sometimes life gets difficult. We create patterns and routines that create patterns for us. I work with clients to change those patterns and routines. I won't help you find your inner child, but I will help you understand how hurts you may have experienced in the past can be causing problems for you now.

Lake Austin Psychotherapy offers general psychotherapy via the narrative perspective of externalization from the problem. Additional subconscious processing with EMDR can facilitate cognitive narrative connections that allow for new, adaptive perspectives to emerge. While past experiences cannot be changed, the story we tell ourselves can always evolve.

Psychotherapy is a general term that involves a counseling modality. My approach to counseling is very personalized and specific to the needs of the client. Sometimes it is important to go back through past history to help identify the experiences that may have led us off our course. Other times it's important to stay in the present and focus on solutions. My approach is to listen to my clients and craft a healing modality that best matches their needs. I have many tools to draw from to meet the client where he/she is.

My approach to psychotherapy is rooted in fostering a therapeutic alliance built on trust, empathy, and active listening. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in depth. Through a client-centered and integrative approach, clients will benefit from tailored interventions and techniques that address their unique needs and goals. I strive to empower clients to gain self-awareness, develop coping strategies, and facilitate personal growth.

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.

There is a great value to having someone who hears you. Your story. Psychotherapy provides an ally. Someone who isn't there to judge, but there to listen and hear Your voice. Your therapist can provide an outside interpretation that is informed by their education, training and experience. Maybe you aren't alone. Maybe you don't have to do it on your own.

Talk therapy can be helpful with a wide range of issues. I want to work with you not just to get to the root of the issues that make it difficult to cope with life, but also the secret strengths you have that can make things easier. I am strengths focused, and able to help you with quick, short term advancements. I am also available for long term sessions so we can reinforce the things we learn along the way.

This private practice is focused on helping clients create a balanced and joyful life. Everyone can discover the way that works best for him or her. It appears that we tend to focus way too much time and energy on "right vs. wrong." This seems to only cause more confusion, indecisiveness, and other insecurities. Seeking outside guidance in times of struggle can be powerful and transformative. One of the goals of this practice is to help clients discover a deeper sense of self and acceptance. Another intention of this practice practice is to help clients build and maintain the necessary tools they already have existing within themselves, and lead clients to new discoveries of living life in a more balanced and enjoyable way.

Psychotherapy is simply a tool that can be used to assist when you are feeling different in your life than you desire to feel. There is not always an easy answer to every challenge you may face. However, when you are equipped with resources, the road is far less intimidating and can be traveled with more confidence. The point of using psychotherapy as a tool is not to diminish your power, but to enhance it giving you access to the greatest potential that is innate to you. www.melissaquiter.com
