The Center for Relationship Training and Recovery, founded and directed by Mike Borash, offers individual, group and couples therapy, as well as clinical training and supervision for mental health professionals. In addition, we offer substance abuse evaluations and multiple group experience platforms.
The Center also provides training programs and consultation services to corporations, associations and government agencies seeking to improve the human resource experience in connectivity, creativity and productivity at all levels of the organizational structure.
The Center views human difficulties and struggles with a relational lens as opposed to an individual lens. Rather than diagnose, label and pathologize, we see our client(s) as experiencing relational deficits that are, if not causing, than substantially contributing to a client(s) presenting problem. We know that psychological wounds and a failure to fully grow to emotional maturity can be attributed to relational causes often going back to the primary attachment relationships of infancy and childhood. Struggles in Romantic relationships predominantly but also work, family and friendships can frequently stir up the old wounds and primitive coping mechanisms. While the deepest wounds can occur in relationship, we now know that they can best be treated in relationship. To this end, all programs at the Center are geared toward the interpersonal and the experiential. To quote from Daniel J. Siegel, MD (The Developing Mind – How Relationships and the Brain Interact to Shape Who We Are, Page 2), “...in other words, human connections shape the neural connections from which the mind emerges.”
Louis Cozolino, Ph.D. notes (The Neuroscience of Human Relationships, Attachment and the Developing Social Brain) , “As human beings we cherish our individuality yet we know that we live in constant relationship to other people in the world and that these people play a part in regulating our emotional and social behavior.”
All therapy and training programs at the Center are based upon the premise that:
"We are all in relationship and relationship
is the primary reality of human experience,
and
of nature and of the cosmos."
