Introduction

Welcome to a transformative journey of self-discovery and healing with Chad Coffin, LMHC. With over a decade of experience as a practicing therapist, I am dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing space for individuals and couples to navigate life's challenges and find a path towards personal growth, meaningful connections, and self-care tools. Approach: My therapeutic approach is holistic, drawing from a blend of Focusing-Oriented Therapy (FOT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and wisdom inspired by the eastern aesthetic concept of Rasa Lila. These elements form the foundation of my practice, allowing me to craft a unique and holistic therapeutic experience tailored to each client's needs. Focusing-Oriented Therapy (FOT): Rooted in the western traditions of Existentialism, Focusing-Oriented Therapy (FOT) is akin to a dance with your inner self, where you tune into your body's subtle signals and emotions to access deeper levels of self-awareness. insight, and meaning. I believe that the body holds valuable information and wisdom, guiding my clients in listening to these signals, fostering a greater connection to their inner selves. This process often leads to increased clarity, self-acceptance, and the ability to make authentic life choices. Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT): EFCT is a powerful approach that underscores the importance of emotional bonds in relationships. It's like learning a dance routine with your partner, with a strong foundation in attachment theory. EFT helps couples identify and transform negative patterns of interaction into secure and intimate connections. By exploring underlying emotions and vulnerabilities, couples can create a safe emotional space for each other, enhancing their bond and communication. My goal is to create a safe environment where each member feels heard, understood, and valued. Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT): EFIT is a compassionate and effective approach, much like a solo dance, helping you navigate the complexities of your emotions, improve emotional well-being, and enhance your relationships, both with others and with yourself. In our sessions, we'll explore your emotional experiences, patterns, and triggers to understand the roots of your feelings and behaviors. By gaining insight into your emotional landscape and attachment history, you'll be better equipped to address challenges like anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties. EFIT provides a safe and supportive space for you to express your emotions, develop healthier emotional responses, and ultimately foster personal growth and emotional resilience. Philosophy of Rasa Lila: Rasa Lila, drawing inspiration from Hindu mythology, beautifully unveils the intricate dance of emotions (Rasa) and the sacred unfolding drama (Lila) in our lives. Rooted deeply in the realm of Indian aesthetics, Rasa theory offers a unique perspective, emphasizing the interplay between emotions and the dramatic narrative of existence. In my holistic approach, I incorporate elements from Rasa Theory, celebrating the emotional choreography that defines our lives. This fusion introduces a profound sense of aesthetic healing. Through the integration of Rasa Theory into FOT end EFT, we enhance the healing journey with an aesthetic lens. Clients often discover that this approach not only supports emotional healing but also deepens the context and their appreciation for the inherent beauty within their emotional experiences and deepest longings. Values: I believe that every individual possesses the capacity for growth, healing, and transformation. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, empathetic, and non-judgmental, providing a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I am dedicated to helping clients uncover their strengths, gain insights, and develop practical tools to navigate life's challenges. By integrating various therapeutic techniques, I tailor my approach to suit each client's unique needs and goals. Therapeutic Environment: My office is a warm and inviting space where you can feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings. I create an atmosphere of non-judgmental acceptance and genuine empathy, where you can explore your inner world at your own pace. Personal Journey: My journey as a therapist has been deeply rewarding, and I am committed to ongoing learning and growth. I am a firm believer in the power of therapy to ignite positive change and am dedicated to walking alongside you on your path to healing. Whether as an individual or a couple, if you're ready to embark on a transformative journey towards self-discovery and healing, I invite you to reach out and schedule a session. Remember, every step you take is a step towards a more fulfilling and authentic life. -Chad Coffin, LMHC
