~ My "Blogging" experience began approximately 2 years ago. It's been a slow process for me. I've removed the original introduction and encourage you to view my Linked In Profile for the particulars about my professional background and experience. ~ I look forward to CONNECTING with, EDUCATING, SHARING EXPERIENCES, and INSPIRING those who have an interest in increased self-awareness & new insights related to "connectedness", positive, secure attachments with others, as well as with the "Self" in order to stay IN HARMONY with the "human condition" we call "LIFE."

  1. Research DOES indicate, as the article concludes, in the case of severe and/or prolonged symptoms, a combination of therapy and medication has the best efficacy rates. I am not a proponent of medication as a first option. I'd like to add that research ALSO INDICATES it IS THE RELATIONSHIP with the therapist that offers the best/most successful outcomes in therapy. If a clients inability to regulate affect indicates a need for medication, I do suggest referring to a psychiatrist for medication management, as well.
