About Dr Lana Benedek's Integrative Psychiatry Practice
Safety, Warmth & Acceptance
The therapeutic alliance is one of the most important ingredients in having a successful therapeutic experience, and at the root of that is: How safe do you feel?
Many of my clients did not grow up in homes where they felt safe to be themselves. In therapy, we are looking to create an alternative to this.
That’s why in the therapeutic container I create with my clients, I prioritize consent-seeking, acceptance, warmth and agility in order to help you access nervous system safety. When you can access that sense of safety, everything flows from there and the healing process can more readily unfold.
My goal is to help you feel supported, held, and encouraged as you take meaningful risks, explore new inner terrain, and ultimately come into your authentic self.
You may access more freedom, authenticity and less inner friction when you access inner safety, and this therapeutic container offers you the platform to develop that safety (maybe for the first time in your life).
Embodiment
Do you ever struggle with anxiety, physical discomfort, ungrounded, confused, numbed out, disoriented, or lack of self-confidence?
If so, these may be signs that you’re disembodied.
Embodiment is a way of being that aligns all the parts of your mind, body and spirit. In today’s society, there is a predominant focus on the mind and thoughts as a way to be in the world. While there is nothing wrong with the mind, it’s only one aspect of our experience, and a part that’s often not in the present.
Embodiment is all about living life informed through the sense experience of the body, and listening to the wisdom of the body.
The body is in the now, and it has a tremendous amount of wisdom. It can speak for itself. The information from the body can be more reliable than the mind.
Focusing on strengthening your embodiment can support you with
- Stronger intuition and clarity
- Feel more confident and secure in who you are
- Decision making becomes more clear and easy
- More access to fulfillment, joy
- Emotionally empowered
- Engaging your true self with the world around you
Holistic
Working holistically means that all the parts of us - mind, body, spirit and community - are seen and understood. Often people come to see me who have been trying to heal but are not able to connect all the dots in their lives.
A holistic approach can lead to
- Clarity about the root cause and a clear path forward to achieve your goals
- More Long-term healing
- You notice changes across your relationships, career, sense of self, passions. Your results are more integrated across all areas of your life.
- Greater wellbeing in the body
- Experience less physical challenges. By integrating and tending to yourself, you can manage stress better
Customized for the uniqueness of you
“Find your own unique gifts to give to this world so worthy of your rescue” - Poem
There’s a uniqueness to each person, so I want to honor that in my treatment approach in order to support you with your goals. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach.
Each person I work with receives a completely unique approach with different techniques that align with their needs and goals. I also rely on intuition for how I engage. I have many tools at my disposal, and they are brought in and out depending on what is most needed in the moment.
In providing this custom approach, I want to help you bring your unique gifts to the world.
