When is psychotherapy recommended?
Whether it's workplace stress, a demanding educational program such as undergraduate or graduate school, or difficulty in your marriage or relationship, this complicated and increasingly fast-paced world requires us to develop adequate ways in which to cope. Ideally these coping mechanisms function optimally; however, becoming overwhelmed and thrown off balance is all too common, often causing discomfort and interpersonal difficulties, further compounding the problem. Psychotherapy may be helpful to reestablish balance and relieve these symptoms, overcome challenges, and engage in and maintain satisfying relationships, and move forward in your life.
What is the quarter life crisis?
The life phase of young adulthood has now been recognized as a distinct developmental stage occurring between the ages of 18-28. In the past, our culture has marked the transition to adulthood by five milestones: completing school, leaving home, becoming financially independent, marrying and having a child. Because of cultural and economic factors coupled with what we now know about neurological wiring these milestones are being achieved later than ever or not at all. Psychotherapy can help young adults adjust and understand their developmental profile and timetable through identity and self exploration, fostering psychological preparedness for their 30’s.
How can psychotherapy with Dr. Fink help?
Central to psychotherapy is the relationship formed between you and I. This relationship will function as the vehicle for change. I will help you to activate and integrate your emotional capabilities that have been shut down, allowing you to free yourself from long-standing behavior patterns and negative perceptions that may be holding you back. Begin to resolve the challenges in your life instead of continuing to allow them to define you. In psychotherapy you will receive the support you need to reach and discover your full potential.
