So why do we go to counseling and psychotherapy sessions if the world and our RELATIONSHIPS seem to be getting worse? In 1995, the top consumer advocacy publication Consumer Reports put out a report on the effictiveness of psychotherapy and the lowest scores went to marriage counselors compared to other treatment providers. If you have ever gone to a marriage counseling session and felt you were describing the water to them while you were drowning and they were calling it success, well, read on. We have a solution for you.
You see, it is not surprising that traditional means of helping a relationship in a therapy session are quite challenging. Here are some reasons why relationship counseling misses the boat:
- The brain is wired to be right, not be happy or effective
- We have contradictory "selves" that say one thing and do another, and this is fundamentally "normal"
Neuroscience has called this phenomenon "modularity of mind." So no need feeling like you are crazy. You are not. - We rarely need to go to the past to solve our problems. We need solutions in the present to drive a new future for us
- We typically speak rationally and say things we know we should believe is true when we are in those counseling sessions. Most therapists validate that, leaving you think you are changing, and then when you are back home things go back to the way things always were
- 9 to 1 odds against you that you will actually change your behavior in situations where it is life and death (Deutschmann, 2005). If this is true, a more skillful approach in non-life and death situations is needed; one that takes the brain and its irrationality into consideration to truly get what you want
Since the reality is that the world of behavior change is trickier than counseling sessions tend to make it seem, a radical new approach is needed.
