Therapy Contract
"I intend to Take Responsibility for My Life"
"I Create My Own Reality"
Every one has the power to reach his potential. However, you
must become active in reaching your potential, as no one can
do it for you. The answers and solutions to your challenges and
problems lies inside of you. Therapy is designed to assist you in
being introspective and to connect you to your higher self. Your
higher self is wise and holds the answers that you are searching
for.

Ultimately, you must be willing to accept that you have the
power to change the outcome of your life. If you believe
otherwise, you are doomed to attract just want you do not
want. You must come into therapy with an open mind for it to
work for you.

Before starting therapy
I would like you to agree to the
following conditions:

I will have an open mind

I always have choices although they may not seem to be the most
favorable.  Still I have a choice.

No one can do the work for me. I must be active in making my life better.

I will be willing to listen and consider the suggestions of my therapist
but I will ultimately make the final decision as I will have to live by this
decision and not my therapist.

I will begin to condition myself to never say I can't and to not think
negatively about myself.

I am willing to become more aware of my actions and thought patterns
and how I am contributing to the state of my life.

I will begin to understand that I cannot change others but I can most
definitely change myself.

I will begin to understand that all life forms have energy. Allowing
myself to engage in more positive energy (positive and healthy things)
will surely help me cope with the many challenges life offers.

I will become more aware that I must attend to my emotional, mental,
physical, and spiritual needs to strive towards my potential.

I will make the effort to learn from my experiences whether they are
positive or negative and then move on. To live in the past is a waste of
energy.

If I develop any feelings of wanting to give up on my therapy for
whatever reason (even if it involves my therapist) I will address it with
my therapist immediately.

I will have an open mind and respect the suggestions of my therapist.

I will understand that if I'm still engaging in unhealthy behaviors even
after the suggestions of my therapist I will not blame anyone but myself.

I will understand that life is a journey and therapy is a process. There is
no miracle cure and so you must be patient with your self and willing to
do the work.
