Communication & Insight Therapy
If you break a circle anywhere, it is no longer a circle.
Many people are stuck in negative cycles and struggle to break free. There can be a variety of reasons that someone feels trapped or stuck in this process. Fortunately, there are several ways to get out of it. We help individuals, couples, and families learn the skills necessary to break their negative cycles and create positive change. That is why we created the theory of “Communication and Insight Therapy.”
Connect
Connection refers to the quality of your relationships with others. These can be romantic, friends, coworkers, and especially your own family. We generally assess the feelings of love, like, and lust when appropriate. Observing general interactions with others is a great way to analyze and improve your function in this domain.
Reflect
Reflection is your own level of emotional intelligence and overall health. Emotional intelligence (EQ) has been shown to be a better indicator of overall life, work, and relationship success than most other factors including IQ. It means that one is able to appropriately identify, label, express, and manage strong feelings. We also include health in this domain as psychological, physical, and emotional health are important for every person.
Redirect
Redirection is an important skill for couples and families, and it is the most difficult. It refers to your ability to co-regulate with each other (i.e. get excited, relax, or cope together) as well as to work towards a shared vision of your future and goals. It is generally best to initially have professional support with this domain. However, in order for lasting and lifelong change, the couple or family will need to be able to apply this skill on their own.
