Type the word “psychotherapist” into Google or any other search engine and you’ll get a dizzying number of hits. It almost seems that number-wise, there is a psychotherapist for every single person on the planet.
Wow.
What’s going on here?
Psychotherapy of course is a service no different than dry cleaning or neurosurgery. A person goes to a professional with a problem, the professional uses his or her skills, and presto (hopefully!), the problem is gone.
Psychotherapy is different though. Whereas dry cleaners and neurosurgeons only need focus on a piece of clothing or a specific organ, psychotherapists must work with the totality of the human being: our behaviors, our routines, our families, our likes and dislikes and so much more all forming a glorious, complex web of often conflicting agendas. Given the seemingly infinite combinations of all the stuff that makes us who we are, little wonder that there are so many therapists.
Yet, with all this seeming countless variations of the human experience there is room for universal truths and standardization. More and more people are turning to scientifically validated methods of treatment to help end their suffering and get on with their lives, careers, and dreams. Dr. Josh Mark offers the best of these methods in a warm, sensible, practical approach that will help you get to where you want to be.
