Partnering to Relieve Pressure on Your Practice
Your patients bring deeper emotional issues into the exam room than can ever be dealt with in the time available.
As a result, sadness, grief, stress-related conditions and sexual dissatisfaction limit successful treatment, undermine compliance and clog administrative services.
Life (Pre)Script(ion)s relieves pressure on your practice by giving your patients a confidential and supportive environment in which to increase self-awareness and emotional mastery. Cognitive behavioral therapy (cbt), action strategies and positive, practical tools inspire healing partnerships and optimism in health.

Case Studies
From “I’m having a heart attack” to “I’m attacking my goals with heart.”
This physician-referred client presented with the firmly held belief that he was going to be incapacitated, or even die, by heart attack. His overwhelming anxiety led him to make frequent calls and appointments, seeking reassurance for his paralyzing fear, despite all medical evidence that he was completely healthy.
We identified both the physical and historical triggers that framed his fear and created new patterns of thought to support his ‘real’ goals. Within three months, he committed to regular exercise, was able to start a family without fear and is in the process of changing careers to accommodate his new, more passionate goals.
“I’m all dried up.”
Intimacy is the first thing to go when communication breaks down in a relationship. Doctors see this in increased cases of non-clinical depression, misplaced fretting over family member health and general malaise.
A couple came to me for pre-marital counseling but soon revealed that they were struggling with intimacy. Their dissatisfaction and resentment threatened to end the marriage before it began. Through a dignified and compassionate discussion, they learned to enjoy and support each other in good times and bad. With constructive communication and conflict resolution skills, they now resist the urge to focus on what was ‘wrong’ with each other. As a result, their relationship has thrived and both report reduced stress and more robust health.
