Psychotherapy
Dr. Chroniak explains how integration of mindfulness practice with insight-oriented psychotherapy creates a powerful synergy, helping clients to experience relief from their symptoms, while facilitating the exploration and resolution of underlying issues.
The psychologists at The Insight Center practice integrative psychotherapy, combining psychodynamic therapy, the principles of mindfulness, and elements from other therapeutic approaches.
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy
Psychodynamic psychotherapy—also referred to as insight-oriented or depth therapy—is an approach in which client and therapist work together to explore and resolve the underlying and often unconscious issues which create difficulties in their lives. Because this approach focuses on the recognition and resolution of the root causes of clients’ problems, it is a powerful method for facilitating true and lasting change.
Mindfulness
Learning mindfulness complements therapy by helping individuals become more fully aware of their thoughts, emotions and behaviors, so they can relate to them in new and creative ways. Mindfulness techniques also allow clients to work directly with their symptoms, reducing their subjective intensity and negative impact. Ultimately, mindfulness helps clients move away from automatic reactivity into healthier, more functional ways of responding.
