Intelligent treatment for insightful people

Dr. Gard's top 10 lessons learned from my clients:

1.         People will treat you the way you let them treat you.

2.        Growth is seldom linear and it is rarely comfortable.

3.        The right decision doesn't always feel good.

4.        It's o.k. to care about how others feel, but that doesn't mean you must            twist your life around to accommodate them. You can be considerate of            others without taking responsibility for their feelings.

5.        Just because you rely on someone doesn't mean you are dependent upon            them.

6.        It's important to pay attention to thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Many            of us tend to ignore one or two of these categories.

7.        You will be less apt to second guess yourself if you learn to recognize,            honor, and respect your feelings.

8.        It is hard to feel confident if you're not being genuine. Being true to            yourself is the best way to bolster your confidence.

9.        You cannot overcome your fears if you don't confront them.

10.       We are bombarded by messages that dictate how we should look, dress,            eat, think, and spend.  Ask yourself, “are these messages in my best            interest?”
