Dr. Shoshanna's Approach

Dr. Shoshanna helps an individual integrate all aspects of themselves. Along with dealing with the past, we focus upon the ways in which the client presently perceives and utilizes past experiences. We discover the lessons to be learned from past problems, and new ways of responding now.

Difficult relationships are also explored and new ways of perceiving and handling them. In this process one's sense of oneself expands and most of the time guilt and other forms of self punishment and restrictions dissolve.

Much of present day depression, anxiety and negativity come from a re-play of old fears, expectations and patterns. My approach teaches the client how to release negativity, take charge of their focus and see what is positive and life enhancing that they can utilize now. The client establishes a new sense of themselves and others, learns the art of forgiveness and finds entirely new ways of relating with on-going life circumstances that present themselves. 

When we learn how to understand, forgive and release negativity, to stay in the present mindfully, we then get in touch with our vast inner resources. Once this happens, our ability to live centered and fulfilling lives increases day by day.

How long does treatment take?

Therapy can be short or long term. It can be focused upon specific problems and needs, or it can take some time to explore different aspects of the person's life, to uncover what is causing depression, anxiety or dissatisfaction, and to help the individual discover his/her own strengths, what his/her needs are and how to best have them met. 

A therapy session lasts one hour. Depending upon the situation, needs and type of therapy, sometimes exercises are given to the client to work on during the week.
