What Trained Therapists Have to Say About MFC
Coping with Stress…
“I was appreciative to utilize MFC and help clients have a mapping of how they are thinking could be enhanced by explaining the MFC model… Each one acknowledged how appreciative they were of this delicate experience”. Dr. RJ Los Angeles, CA
MFC model for impulsivity and inattention…
“The terminology of impulsivity and inattention has facilitated a new awareness for clients to reflect on where their decision-making is coming from”. Dr. ER Lakewood, NJ
Choice…
“Helping people learn that they have choices when they otherwise have assumed that they do not have choice is not just very helpful as a therapist but liberating as a human being”. Dr. MS Monsey, NY
Therapy and MFC…
“I have found MindfulChoice® to be the place where psychodynamic therapies and behavioral therapies blend together most beautifully”. Dr. YH Southampton, NY
What vs. Why…
“I have stopped asking why and have replaced it probably almost completely with what. I find that it changes so much for the client and is also a gateway into educating them about the relationship of thought to feeling. It also gets the conversation about where they would like to get to and what is the way, started”. Dr. L.T New York, NY
Reason vs, Emotion to remain objective, calm and compassionate…
“I engaged with my son in a very MFC approach…I found myself able to “reason over emotion”…remain objective, calm, and compassionate amidst the dynamically, escalated communication coming from my son.” Dr. CF Brooklyn, NY.
Pressure and Tunnel Vision Effect…
“I also worked with a pianist who… had been given notice to record her piano playing for a project, only to find out that she had less than 1 minute to be prepared for the recording. She , enthusiastically utilized the image of the woman playing the piano and calming herself down with MFC; and decided to do the same, as a result – awesome, professional recording”. Dr. MS Chicago, Il
