“I see psychotherapy as an art that concentrates on healing the emotions, mind, and spirit. It can involve a sometimes difficult journey to the inner mind, where dynamic forces operate outside conscious awareness. The purpose of psychotherapy is to help individuals realize their hopes and aspirations. Psychotherapy is concerned with present and future possibilities, but often we must spend time exploring the past, because long-forgotten experiences may have created influences that interfere with living well and having satisfying relationships. So bringing those experiences to light is often a necessary task of psychotherapy.

In addition to exploring issues with words and conversation, I sometimes make use of dream interpretation and trance states or hypnosis to assist in gaining access to the inner mind. The inner or subconscious mind not only shows sources of difficulties, but also reveals our deep-seated strengths and creative power.

I am the author of several books on psychotherapy including Multiple Man (Somerville House Books, 1997), From Mesmer to Freud (Yale University Press, 1993) and Trance Zero: Breaking the Spell of Conformity (Somerville House Books, 1997). I also teach at the Centre for Training in Psychotherapy in Toronto.”

Taking the first step toward getting help is often the most difficult
