Creating Healthy Relationships Primitive Ego Psychology for Life Coaches and Mental Health Counselors

Life Coaches and Mental Health Counselors know the important relationships in our lives are born out of love and compassion; qualities of our higher self. This book was written to offer life coaches, mental health counselors, and anyone interested in improving the quality of their relationships with others, the insights and skills of Primitive Ego Psychology. Creating health relationships requires the taming of our unconscious childhood primitive ego; the part of us that is primarily focused on our own needs. Until we awaken our adult consciousness, our relationships with others will be controlled by our unconscious, self-focused childhood primitive ego. To nurture a loving relationship with others means that we have to learn to own our own feelings, be willing to intentionally grow in self-awareness, and learn to manifest loving behaviors that focus on the needs of the other person. Only then will we be capable of manifesting an authentic presence that nurtures those we love. The insights and practices offered in this book are designed to help the reader move beyond the illusions of ego and embrace a deeper knowing that brings resonance between our intellect and the wisdom of our heart energy; to deepen our ability to have healthy loving relationships. Dick Rauscher is an experienced author, professional life coach, certified AAPC Fellow, and NYS licensed mental health counselor. He offers practical examples in the use of primitive ego theory for the intentional evolution and awakening of the human consciousness; the skills and insights needed to improve the quality of our everyday lives. Creating healthy relationships requires the taming of our childhood primitive ego. We use our minds to create the lives we live. So it makes sense, the more we know about how our minds work and how we think, the more successful our lives will be. Dick Rauscher has a lifetime of training and experience helping people develop the habits, insights, and skills needed to achieve their life goals and create healthy relationships; including success, happiness, and deeper meaning in their lives. In addition to his writing Dick offers on-on-one personal life coaching and seminars.
