Understanding it and feeling different are two different things.
The story is clear
Many people who come to Mark can explain exactly where a pattern started. They have talked it through for years, often with good therapists.
The reaction came first
Talk therapy offers a better way to think about old programming. The reaction itself was learned long before the explanation, and it keeps running underneath.
A different starting point
Mark's approach goes to the original memory and the prediction built from it, rather than reasoning with the reaction after the fact.
Who this is for, and who it isn't.
This is for adults who…
- Live in Maryland
- Have already done talk therapy, often for years
