- Individual Sessions
Sessions take place in a comfortable, soundproof room. If you prefer
just to talk, we will sit and discuss your concerns. For feeling work
you may want to lie on a mat to help focus on your body sensations,
perceptions and feelings. Traditionally, Deep Feeling/Primal Therapy is done lying down
on the mat with the facilitator sitting next to you. There are tissues,
blankets, pillows, foam-covered bats and other materials to support your
work.
Phone Sessions-
Esta offers telephone sessions for individuals unable to see her in
person, or for those who want to work anonymously. Phone sessions will
help if you can't find a Primal Therapist in your community or, for
any reason feel more comfortable keeping a safe distance. If you would
like to set up a phone session, please call (614)893-3527.
Couples Counseling
-
Very often conflict with loved ones pushes us to explore ourselves and
work on our individual problems. Sometimes it is very beneficial to work
in a couple’s session. Esta has extensive experience counseling
couples and finds this type of work very effective.
Psychodrama Weekend Workshops
Psychodrama is a
group therapy method in which participants explore internal conflicts
through acting out their emotions instead of just talking about them.
In psychodrama each person becomes a therapeutic agent for others in
the group.
A given session
(typically 60-90 minutes) focuses on a single participant, known as the
protagonist. Protagonists examine their relationships while interacting
with the other participants and the leader. This is done using specific
techniques, including doubling, role reversals, mirroring, etc.
Psychodrama creates an internal restructuring of dysfunctional beliefs
and behaviors, and it challenges the participants to discover new
answers to some situations and become more spontaneous and independent.
Although a primary
application of psychodrama has traditionally been as a form of group
therapy, psychodrama offers a powerful approach to any teaching and
learning situation, as well as to developing interpersonal skills.
- Group Work
It is often helpful to continue the
self-exploration process in a group setting.
The group becomes a “sample” of the outside world, reproducing
conditions of interpersonal relationships and styles of interaction. It
helps us to face and resolve our issues in more effective ways. In a
Primal group, members support each other as they work through strong
feelings.
Intensives
If you are experienced in deep emotional
work and think that your process would benefit from an intensive, or if
you live far away and might want to stay in locally for some
time to do feeling work, we can discuss this opportunity. A studio
apartment is available on the property for out-of-town clients.
