Giving Advice

Question for Regina: Why does a therapist not specifically tell me what I should do when I have a problem.

The only true way of helping somebody is by teaching him to help himself. "You can give somebody who is hungry a fish but it is much better if you teach him how to catch his own fish."


A good therapist will not solve problems for you, but help and support you in finding the answer to your problem yourself. By doing so, she can ensure you do not become dependent on her.
As a therapist I try to improve my clients self-esteem by making them independent and self-reliant. I do this by teaching them to see their problems from a different perspective and help them find new possibilities to deal with difficult situations.

Question of the day for Regina

Question:  How do I deal with the daily problems that come into my life? by Lynn. Woodland Hills,CA


Answer:  Problems can be seen as a setback but in reality it is a possibility to change your life. It can be looked upon as a wonderful thing or as my mother said, "It's a new opportunity for  improving one's life." Problems force us to think about circumstances and our behavior associated with this situation. By dealing with our problems using a positive mental attitude we can change things in our lives and grow as individuals. Growing and learning is the reason for living. Therefore be thankful for every problem because it gives you the opportunity to improve and mature as human being.
