Hello All, I've been struggling badly in recent weeks with my excruciating sciatica pain, so I've considered seeing a therapist. In my process today of searching for one in NYC, I came upon these journal articles from NYU Medical Center where Sarno worked (he is not mentioned FYI) that almost seem like a bit of an unknown found treasure. They're very informative and easy to read...
They basically map out and explain the different types of psychotherapy and deconditioning techniques that can be used for people with a variety of chronic pain conditions. I looked and I didn't see this posted anywhere else on here, but if it is, I apologize for the 2nd posting. I think this information is pretty powerful on its own and I might read it a few times to let it sink in. I hope that it helps someone here out! Also, if anyone has a good therapist in the NYC area, I'd love to get a reference. Thanks!
Arlene Feinblatt, Ph. D. is currently editing her book "Psychotherapy for Pain and Mind/Body Syndromes," with preface by Dr. John E. Sarno. If you are interested in obtaining a copy, contact her at afphd @ arlenefeinblatt.com. Provide your name, address, and zip code. You will be notified regarding publication information.
Does anyone know when this book may be coming out? With all the emphasis here lately on mindfulness and spirituality and stress reduction i would find her perspective most interesting.
