Why Don't More People Do Premarital Counseling?
by Lisa Brookes Kift, MFT
About Me View My Posts
As a relationship therapist, I find it interesting that more people don't do premarital counseling. I was thinking that perhaps people are in such a "honeymoon" phase they think to themselves: "We don't need that...we're so in love....etc." This might be true for the moment but what about a few years down the line when the marriage gets thrown a few curve balls? Life has a tendency to do that. I love... 6/29/2008 7:00:00 AM

Sex and menopause

About Me View My Posts
I've experienced the beauty and power of sexual activity for decades. From the wonderful sexual relationship I have with my husband I experienced a beautiful bond that has grown more lovely over the years. From our love for one another we created our dear, sweet, children. We have been fortunate to have the blessing of being able to express our love for one another both verbally and sexually. Unfortunately,... 6/22/2008 1:11:15 AM

How to Gauge the Severity of Your Cellulite
by Dr.Bissoon
About Me View My Posts
Every woman with cellulite always seems to think they have the worse possible case. I hear them say this day in and day out. Doctor, my cellulite is the worst you have ever seen. I want to respond by saying, if you knew how to do a self exam, you would not think so, but it is one of those things you do not say to patients. As the Cellulite Viewing Season approaches, it is important to understand the... 6/3/2008 11:42:42 AM

Career-Change Therapy
by Lisa Brookes Kift, MFT
About Me View My Posts
I've been thinking a lot lately about my previous career and how happy I am to have made the decision to leave it behind. I was very dissatisfied and unfulfulled in the Movie/Television production business in L.A. where I was an Assistant Director. As I look back on that - and my decision to leave it - it was kind of like "Career-Change Therapy." I credit my decision to leave to my therapist at the... 6/2/2008 7:00:00 AM

Choices for menopause
by Beth Rosenshein
About Me View My Posts
Rather than blog about melatonin I decided to write about respecting a woman's choice to not choose hormonal treatment for hypogonadism. This is fundamental. Like any illness, as long as a person is informed about having an illness, in this case hypogonadism, the choice to forgo a particular treatment option needs to be respected. I know I can go on a on about hormonal treatment for hypogonadism and... 5/29/2008 10:19:00 PM

Gratitude Journal Anyone?
by Lisa Brookes Kift, MFT
About Me View My Posts
Life's been throwing me a few curve balls recently and I've been thinking seriously about making priority shifts. It dawned on me that now would be a great time to also begin a gratitude journal. I've spoken to my own clients before about the benefits of a gratitude journal - particularly when things seem bleak or they have a "glass half empty" attitude which is so easy for any of us to slip into!... 5/25/2008 7:00:00 AM

Had a Bad Therapy Experience?
by Lisa Brookes Kift, MFT
About Me View My Posts
After all that I've written about what to expect in therapy/counseling, whether the process "works" and the like - I got to wondering about what some of the bad therapy experiences people out there have had. Therapists are "people" too who have lapses in judgement, have made mistakes or been downright unethical! Or it might be a matter of personality mismatch. I'm curious to know if anyone is interested... 5/22/2008 7:00:00 AM
