 Psychological ServicesPsychotherapy & Couples Therapy Psychotherapy Dr. Way is skilled in psychotherapy drawn from a variety of theoretical orientations including: feminist, cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, existential-humanistic and emotion-focused, as well as in a variety of psychological techniques including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) (Shapiro, 2001). As a feminist therapist she has a special interest in women's issues and has acquired knowledge and expertise related to the psychology of women and their treatment. Moreover, because of her knowledge of the gender differences between the psychological development, socialization and, thus, life experiences of men and women, she has generally found her orientation as a "feminist therapist" to be well-received and effective in her therapeutic work with male clients as well.  Dr. Way is currently applying herself to the development and practice of Energetic Self-Manifestation (ESM), a psycho-energetic treatment approach which offers an accelerated and multirealitied approach to the healing experience. ESM has evolved out of Dr. Way's work as a Sacred Energy Practitioner. It is a process which supports individuals in realizing their innate wholeness in the context of an enhanced awareness that they are Energy Beings.Read more about Energetic Self-Manifestation (ESM) ›› Couples Therapy from an ESM perspective Dr. Way's work with couples is based upon the theoretical framework and practice of Energetic Self-Manifestation (ESM).
