Therapy techniques

Posted by goingballistic on November 12, 2009, at 2:56:37

I have been lurking on this board for a long time and finally got the courage to post. I have been in therapy for approximately 11 years with one therapist. He couldnt help me regarding a particular problem. So, I switched to a new one.


My new therapist is a licensed psychologist and neuropsychologist and does not really believe in psychotherapy or medication. So she does biofeedback, tapping (I think it's called emotional freedom technique), and emphasizes "A course in miracles." I have been coming to her because I am dealing with a very stressful family situation. I am ready to move out of my mother's house and into a homeless shelter (I am financially strapped). I have been trying all of her therapeutic techniques, but they have not been very helpful to me. I am still under so much stress that it is affecting my physical health, and I had begun hallucinating.


I am wondering if any of you have tried, "A Course in Miracles." What did you think of it? Do you think it has therapeutic value?


Also, have you tried tapping? I don't feel anything after doing it many, many, many times. I told her this, but she wants me to continue trying it.


She is a very caring woman. She is willing to help me free of charge when all of my medical insurance is used up. I have about 8 visits left. Unfortunately, when my visits get used up, I will be left with no coverage should I decide to switch providers.

Any opinions? I am so confused now.

Thank you so much.
