I really find this video an interesting way to think about psychotherapy. You see, in life, we often develop habits for how we see the world around us. It’s great to be able to understand what’s going on in any given situation, so it’s important to be able to “connect the dots.” But sometimes we get so used to seeing things one way, that we miss out on other possibilities.

This is where working with a therapist can be useful. Sometimes, through the process of therapy, we can start to see that there are new ways to connect the dots. It’s not always that any particular way is the “right” way. Sometimes it’s just as useful to understand that life has more options and flexibility than we often allow ourselves to see.

One of the things I particularly appreciate about working as a psychotherapist from a Gestalt perspective is that I find people I work worth learn how to start to find a more flexible perspective on their own as a skill that they take away from therapy. When you watch this video, what do you see?

For all you public servants out there....

Borrowers in the federal public-service loan forgiveness program have run into many problems. But one social worker managed to wipe out $170,000 in debt.
