– Wendi L. Dumbroff discusses mental health, therapy and mindfulness and meditation –

Wendi L. Dumbroff, MA, LPC, was recently a guest on The Dr. Joy Showan award winning public affairs show which airs on Cablevision and Verizon FIOS. Their wide ranging discussion covered the benefits of therapy in general and specific reasons people seek couple and sex therapy.

“Therapy is an exploration into who you are, where you came from, how the context in your life has impacted you.  Couples end up in my office when something is not going well. Often times, people get into vicious cycles where one person does something that triggers the other which then leads to a negative reaction by their partner. People then go round and round in this loop.”

Therapy can assist in identifying the triggers, and creating space for people to react differently, which leads to better outcomes.

The conversation included a large portion of time on mindfulness and meditation, an area where Dumbroff has received her certification. Dumbroff elaborates:

“I don’t ask all my clients to meditate because I just don’t think it’s going to be for everyone. But I do focus on helping them be more aware of what’s going on within them and what the deeper meanings are.”
