I'm Debra Joy Goldman, MS LMHC, and as a psychotherapist in practice for more than twenty years I've noticed that people usually find it easy to say what is wrong and what they do not like and what is distressing or painful. Many may even have some idea of what they want to be different but often do not know how to get there. (Perhaps this describes you?) For many years I've studied with some of the wisest minds around to gain the tools, methods and techniques that are the most effective in unlocking the deepest realms of self-understanding. I would love to share the benefits of my studies with you. Some of the ways I work include: Imagery - Imagery goes beyond the logical, analytical mind and taps into the deeper core truths that you may not be aware of. It is a diagnostic and transformational process and can inform you about directions to go in your life, provide answers to questions, and highlight new actions to take. We talk together to understand where you are, then where you want to go. We then can make the journey together in therapy. As your ally, I will help facilitate the journey from here to there through a compassionate, caring counseling process. Dream Work - Dreams can illuminate: Perceptions about what is happening in your life now Upcoming physical problems and their relief What is possible for you Your relationship to freedom (we are often enslaved by our beliefs, by how we let others control us, by our feelings, by our habits) Solutions to your problems Struggles that you are having in your life How I Work I am trained to ask the right questions. I am trained to listen in a certain way, to help you tune in to yourself. I will help you learn to pay attention in a new way that allows new information, insights, and revelations to occur. Our work together is an active process that helps draw out your own deeper wisdom, resources and creativity. (You'll be amazed.) Together we will identify patterns and habits and I will provide ideas and tools for change. We will focus on your strengths, explore your inner self and stimulate positive change in your life. Beginning with our first meeting you can choose a healthier direction and a more harmonious life.
