    One therapist I found when I was "going through some stuff" told me "well, you could be a soldier in Iraq." Didn't see him again. I guess he was going for the "perspective" method.

    This is great. Regarding the stage/phase model, I observe some overlap and application to other marginalized identities (e.g., persons of color or children of immigrants born in the West). Finding peace at synthesis where internal conflicts and questions are reconciled

    Great video!
    But next time no mics under anyone's tie! These are called a lapel mic for a reason. The mic usually goes on the lapel where the person will be talking toward. Here on the right and the cord going over the should to his back!

    leave yourself open to find your true real god given identity as you do therapy. if you come with a label and category then you cannot discover who you are, who your wounded child is, who you are with adult functioning that is appropriate for society and relationships. the false self, the hidden real self, and the person God intends you to be can only immerge in the light of truth, grace where it is fully safe to become who you really are and grow into who you are becoming.

    And just like a true modern psychologist, you censor my comment rather than allow open discussion on the problems with exposing children to this gender neutral culture.

      Hi there. I am not sure how your comments are being censored.

    "Identify" as gay? No I am gay, darling.

    As a gay client looking for ways to help educate my therapist to better help me face my issues this video honestly comes across as a heterosexist nightmare to me. I really hope this isn't the standard because it has really problematic framing about gay people and our lives. If it is, then us gay folks are thoroughly doomed because apparently psychology hates us unless we conform to the wishes of our oppressors.

    Only Jesus can save you stop living in your sins. I know it sounds corny to a non believer but iv died god is real and if your reading this idly was for a reason. You can’t save yourself that’s why your struggling. Put your trust in Jesus and realize he loves you but you will not eat with him if you die in sin
