How to save unhappy marriages
December 25th, 2009
When a marriage relationship becomes problematic it is one of the most difficult things that people go through.When it happens most people absolutely find it difficult to resolve. Usually if a couple is willing to work at it they can resolve their differences. But that is mainly the key to the whole thing. If one person or both don’t want to work together to fix it, nothing will save it.In this article we will look at some qualified reasons why good counseling can greatly help troubled marriages.
First of all if a couple is having a hard time trying to fix their relationship they may need help. Obviously this is what my San Diego marriage therapist practice specializes in. Because often times an outside person will be the best thing to try and fix the issue.Most of the times it makes it almost impossible to work things out because the fighting has become so bitter. But by having a therapist work through it with them it may be just what they need.

The real secret to successful athletes
November 14th, 2009
We are amazed at how blessed athletically our sports stars are. They are rightly so. But one thing we do not know of is the important role that psychology brings into these athletes.But when you come to think of it it makes sense.Because sports is not only about who is physically talented.When we are talking about competition the mind is always involved.That would be why most of these athletes that we idolize are not just physically gifted. But when you talk to them you realize they are mentally gifted as well.
Now what I would like to share from my experience as a sports psychologist San Diego is that you can become great in that aspect as well.You may not be able to determine or improve greatly your physical skills. But you can control how good you are mentallly. Sometimes that allows someone who isn’t as talented physically beat out someone who is.We know it is true most of the time. And the factor that allows the less talented to succeed is their mind.
Anger management and its effects on family
October 23rd, 2009
One thing that all people have is their emotions.Some people have the tendency to display more of their emtions in public. For some emotions it is good. Some people show emotions of excitement and happiness. Others show emotions of sadness or anger. All people have emotions and they usually express it but sometimes they get out of hand. Anger is one of these emotions.
As you have read in this article anger can be dangerous and detrimental to family life. In my practice doing anger management counseling I have seen the effects it can have on a family. It could make living with the person very uncomfortable. It makes everyone around the person afraid and be aloof with that person. It can turn what is supposed to be a place of safety into a negative place. That place of safety is called the home.
