General Information
"It is not difficult to hide in the consulting room. Some patients are more skilled at it than others. It is only 50 minutes of agony. Patients can avoid/hide for that amount of time, which I imagine for some seems like an eternity. But eventually, the stories, catastrophes, words, crises run out. There are just the two of us, and perhaps at that moment we can briefly meet to retreat until the next 50 minutes of agony."

“I have one aim only: to impart a fraction of the meaning of the word now.” ~ Fritz Perls (1970)
"The deep meta-message of CBT is that you can behave differently, even in the presence of these thoughts. And that's very helpful." ~ Steven Hayes
