Rather restless until I found this path I love, I worked in various settings from factories to offices to music to sales before heading for graduate training in Psychology. I spent my 1st twenty plus years in the Northeast U. S.

About Us
read moreThe "About Psychotherapy" section of our site provides an introduction to choosing a therapist, types of psychotherapy, types of psychotherapists, modes of psychotherapy, and some information about confidentiality, fees, and insurance for mental health services. The decision to start therapy is an important one. The choice of therapist is no less important. If one has not had previous experience with therapy, initiating the process can be confusing and intimidating. The overviews on these pages will help to make the landscape clearer by defining and explaining common terms, all those letters after therapists' names, how fees and insurance work, and other important matters.

Books at STRISIK.com
read moreOur recommendations for the books we think are particularly good are listed on this page. We will be continuing to add books to the list. It also gives you a more specialized presentation of special interest publications as a starting point for your book shopping. One thing you might notice is that we have a bias towards workbooks. Change rarely comes from passivity. Workbooks are an excellent way to be active with the material being read. They involve the reader and help the reader apply the material to his or her own circumstances and experience.
