Do the VisionWorks seminars replace therapy?
VisionWorks is education, rather than therapy. VisionWorks seeks to sustain a cooperative relationship with counselors, clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, and other members of the psychotherapeutic community. Whenever people undergoing therapy present themselves as candidates for the seminars, we request that they discuss the matter with the care-giver and create agreement so that everyone is working together to achieve the highest good of the student/patient. Since the orientation of the VisionWorks seminars is to discover solutions, rather than to dwell in the problem, people often find their therapy is accelerated as a result of the seminars. As students become more accountable for their wholeness and overall well-being, they may even decide to suspend therapy or even to close this avenue of their lives. We always encourage healthy, mutually agreeable completion, with the therapist’s support.
