我的咨询疗法
世上没有完美合适每一位来访者的咨询疗法，所以在我们的工作中我可能会根据你的需求和目标用到不同的流派。以下是我深入学习并常用的三种疗法。
格式塔心理疗法（完形心理学）
在格式塔心理咨询中，咨询师和来访者一起致力于体会当下的身体感觉和心情。通过一段时间的训练，你会对自己稍纵即逝的情绪更有觉察，从而更了解自己。过去受到的创伤往往会尘封在我们的身体中，让我们莫名地受苦。而当你真正勇敢面对自己情绪上对于创伤的记忆，并且给予足够的关注，这份创伤就会被看见，从而有了愈合的可能。
在2019年，我完成了纽约格式塔培训中心的三年长程培训和督导，成为了一名认证格式塔咨询师。在过去多年的临床经验中，我用格式塔咨询帮助了许多来自于不同国家不同年龄的来访者。每个人的心路历程各有不同，但共通的一点是他们都更加了解自己当下的身体和心灵体验，认识到不再有用的思维和行为模式，作出调整后活出了自己想要的样子。
认知行为疗法 (CBT)
CBT是一种专注于解决问题和改变行为的心理疗法。在这种疗法中，咨询师和来访者共同发现问题，花大量时间改变思维模式和练习解决方法，从而达到想要的目标行为。在临床实践中，我注意到CBT对儿童多动症以及强迫症患者格外有效。
如果你更习惯治疗框架明显的心理咨询，根据你的需求和目标，我可能会建议你做一些“家庭作业“或是在咨询时间内和我一起练习。
心理动力学疗法
简单地说，心理动力学疗法是由古典精神分析衍生出来的现代疗法。在此疗法中，我们会讨论和分析你的自由联想以及生活里发生的或大或小的事件。通过双方对潜意识的解析和对当下情绪的探索，你很有可能会了解到自己以前不知道的部分，并产生对未知自我的洞见。
一旦未知的自我浮出水面，当下的困境即有可能迎刃而解。这些洞见是你自我成长的催化剂。而我，会是你成长路上的见证人和鼓励者。
来访者感言
Yi Wen is the most professional and compassion mental health counselor that I ever met. She changed my life from inner, she made me understand myself better...... I feel very grateful that I spent almost 2 years seeing her. It was a wonderful & precious inner journey in my life. Highly recommended!!!
------------- Former Client, CE
I had always toyed with the idea of therapy as a way to get a better control on my anxiety. However I had also been skeptical and decided to finally give it a try. She makes sure to be available and patiently listen to me. Over this period we have explored many of the issues that have potentially contributed to my anxiety and certainly feel that it has helped me improve my work performance and overall mental well-being. I would recommend her to anyone who is seeking help to explore their own issues in a warm, non-judgmental and caring relationship.
