What are Dr. Hershs thoughts on counseling and communication?
You have a tea kettle and you boil water in it. Why doesn’t the kettle explode? Because it has a valve that lets the air out. Many people (just like a clogged valve in the tea kettle) hold their feelings in, thus creating undo stress and anxiety. Counseling, the talking cure, allows you to express those feelings, so you release those negative feelings which will make you feel so much better and free. Also, what do you do before you cross the street? You look both ways, of course! Counseling helps you look ‘both ways’ in your own individual life, allowing for self awareness to grow as a person.
