Introduction to Life Healing,

Life Solutions
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy Programs
The original version of Telka's Life Solutions program was developed in 1989. Solution focused, cognitive behavioral (SFCB) therapy was gaining popularity as an effective treatment method replacing some of the more traditional “problem focused” psychotherapies. As one of the presenters at a week long educational program in Madison Wisconsin, Telka's job was to train other therapists in this new treatment approach. During the final day of training, a therapist made a statement that he thought at the time was a joke. He said, "If you ever decide to share this material with the public, you will put us all out of business." The idea of Life Solutions was born. Telka's Life Solutions addresses the most common life problems and therefore, the most common issues raised in therapy. Therapeutic knowledge and coping tools are provided to heal:
* Mood disorders: Depression, Anxiety, PTSD.
* Relationship problems.
* Anger.
* Stress.
* Self-defeating behaviors.
* Poor self-esteem, passivity.
* Dealing with difficult people.
* Inability to forgive.
* Problems with letting go of the past.
