Dynamic Psychotherapy: The Way

Therapy that’s constructive depends on the skill and experience of your therapist, and the fit between you. Most people appreciate a professional with integrity and warmth that makes them feel safe to undergo the difficult work of psychotherapy. You can judge the effectiveness of your therapist by applying your own intellectual and emotional responses to the treatment during your initial complimentary consultation, and then within three to five sessions. The chemistry between you and your therapist is as important as any in your other significant relationships – it mirrors your fit. This blend will enable you to find a therapist whose approach is meaningful to you, and will get you the results you want.

Where

In the beginning, psychotherapy was a one way dialogue, lying on the couch, facing a wall, and a silent unseen clinician behind one’s head. We’ve come a long way from the analytic format to the more accessible interactive dance of dialogue through relationship, to help us make sense of our lives. The field is now revolutionizing through technology, where the therapeutic relationship can be maintained and even enhanced, through the internet and telephone with wonderful results.

My extensive experience with Teletherapy and Online Therapy, both personally and professionally, has brought emotional stability and symptom resolution to my amazing clients who live throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. People enjoy the geographic flexibility that long-distance therapy can offer – available at your convenience and hassle-free. The outcome is just as effective as when I was working in a New York City office. Despite the fact that we are not in the same room, you feel connected to me because I have a knack for making you comfortable and for discerning your emotional energy. Many people feel less inhibited speaking from the safety of their own home or office.

Visual contact, though useful, is no more important to a good theraputic outcome than other sensory modalities, such as the auditory, vocal, emotional or kinesthetic. Dr. Bigel-Casher’s skill in creating a comfort level, in any venue, will permit you to be at ease as well.

What

Dr. Rita Bigel-Casher works psycho-dynamically focusing on solutions and problem-solving.

Over the years Relationship Therapy, Hypnotherapy and EMDR Trauma/Loss Therapy has become my specialty.

Why? Because the joy in life depends on two factors: Our ability to connect intimately in meaningful relationships, and our capacity to create a passionate work experience. When that ability is dismembered by trauma or loss, that must be overcome - otherwise symptoms take over the quality of one's life. Working cognitively and experientially is the straightest line we can walk.

First and foremost, is the development of a safe and secure relationship between my client and myself. This engenders a therapeutic environment where people can open more deeply to themselves and others. I tailor my treatment to the needs of my client. Rigidity has no place in my practice. Just as a healthy diet is essential to a growing child, a flexible therapeutic approach leads to a positive therapeutic outcome.

I consider myself a Coach for Better Living. Together we decide what works, and which approach will produce the most comfortable and effective results. Our success makes my work inspiring and heartwarming. Please give me a chance to see what we can do together.
