Bennett Pologe, Ph.D.
The cure for psychological problems is increased awareness of other agendas.
Psychotherapy is the process that accomplishes this. The less aware we are of
our motives, feelings, thoughts, actions, perceptions, the more they control us
and the more we stay stuck in old patterns that don’t work anymore. Relief from
symptoms lies in discovering and incorporating into our constant, every-day
consciousness that which is being masked, distracted from, or indirectly "acted
out" in symptoms.

Depression is a serious medical illness; it’s not something that you have made
up in your head. It’s more than just feeling "down in the dumps" or "blue" for a
few days. It’s feeling "down" and "low" and "hopeless" for weeks at a time.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD, is an anxiety disorder that can develop
after exposure to a terrifying event or ordeal in which grave physical harm
occurred or was threatened. Traumatic events that may trigger PTSD include
violent personal assaults, natural or human-caused disasters, accidents, or
military combat.

THE F+A=N MODEL of Changing your Behavior - At addiction Alternatives, we use an
equation called the "F-A-N Model" to sum up the way feelings followed by actions
(actions in this formula are considered either to be specific behaviors or
changes in thinking) combine -- leading to new feelings that drive or push
behavior in a positive or negative direction: F (feelings) + A (actions) =
N (new feelings)

About Analysis from NYAAP
Analytical Psychology is Jung’s term for his theory and practice of psychology.
He coined the term to distinguish it from Freud’s form of psychotherapy, which
Freud called psychoanalysis. The phrase most commonly used today to describe
Jung’s model of therapeutic practice is Jungian analysis. Whichever term is
used, for Jung, psychoanalysis is ideally an attempt to bring conscious and
unconscious elements of the psyche into balance.
