The Skin Deep program is designed to bridge the gap and focus the potential of the other techniques on the skin. I often see people who are in ongoing psychotherapy with someone else. Typically, the primary therapist and I will have telephone conferences to coordinate both sides of the work, and I will urge the therapist to read material that will help him or her be more aware of possible links between life and skin issues. Psychotherapists are almost always excited and receptive to this collaboration. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
Prediction is a tough business.
Warts do not disappear on their own, so it may be an artifact, but I suspect not. Other practitioners have had the same experience. Several years of psychotherapy may be necessary to set the stage for successful skin work. For others, resolving a portion of the life issues opens the door to resolve a portion of the skin symptoms. Then the next chapter of the emotional growth sets the stage for more skin improvement.
