As a seasoned therapist, I believe for therapy to be most effective, it is imperative to uncover the underlying beliefs and events that are the root of one's present-day problems. I use various modalities depending on what goals the client is looking to achieve.
I view the therapeutic relationship as one which a team effort is required; you, the client and me, the therapist.
