Maintaining a healthy connection and cohesion of self can be difficult when there are significant internal barriers and blocks. Working through the issues and trauma that created the separation to allow for integration is the most vital aspect of psycho-therapy.

Len Ramsay
Registered Psychotherapist, Gestalt Therapist , M.B.A.
Borderline, Narcissistic, Schizoid... another day at the office. How we work will have a lot to do with whether you are diagnosed or not, and who thinks you are this way. Whatever the label, we always start with relationship in personality disorders, as that is always where the difficulty started in the first place. And I mean the CURRENT relationship, here and now between you and me.

The salutogenic concept of Positive Psychotherapy in the age of globalisation, taking into account stories, wisdom and humour.
Proverbs, as well as mythological motifs, bring up the values and norms of a culture, they refer to certain patterns of thought that are characteristic of culture and capture them in tangible images. Their substructure can be interpreted psychoanalytically.
In Positive Psychotherapy, founded by Prof. Dr Nossrat Peseschkian, a selected proverb is the starting point for exploring the client's particular ways of thinking. Positive Psychotherapy is based on three basic principles:
1st: The principle of hope: Positive Psychotherapy is based on a positive image of man. Each individual can transform his or her possibilities into abilities.
2: The principle of balance: health is a balancing act of various factors: When our body is tired and our senses are overexcited, exhaustion depression often occurs. The feeling of professional overload often leads to depressive pseudo-dementia, disturbances in the contact area cause social isolation, a lack of future planning produces fear of the future.
3rd: The principle of counselling: The counselling of the patient is divided into 5 stages:
a.) The therapist observes the behaviour and thinking of the person seeking advice for half an hour,
b.) the person seeking advice summarizes the events that have shaped his life in recent years,
c.) the therapist discusses possible processing strategies with the person seeking advice,
d.) the person seeking advice defines his goals for the next months,
e.) the person seeking advice defines his or her further aims.
While in the Orient the focus of life is more on the future and contacts, in the West we attach more importance to the physical side and our professional performance. Only if Orient and Occident learn from each other is it possible to keep human life and health in balance in the long run.
