I view the distress that motivates one to seek treatment as rooted in difficult to recognize and unconscious ideas and/or memories about one's self. The process of learning the self-defeating or self-destructive ways in which one avoids or defends against these troubling ideas and the process of coming to a deeper understanding of them reduces the grip they have on one's life. I maintain this perspective whether I am seeing someone for psychological testing, twice a week psychotherapy, or four times a week psychoanalysis.
Sometimes a good place to begin the process of getting help is a psychologcial evaluation. It can help clarify the problem or possible identify the presence of a learning disorder such as dyslexia. To learn more please call Dr. Hall for a consultation. Dr. Hall evaluates children, adolescents and adults.
