NOTE: Dr. Colt conducts brief,
solution-focused therapy, which means it's not designed to go on a
long time. It's designed to find out what the issues are and
then Dr. Colt and his client(s) form a team to come up with
solutions to those issues as rapidly as possible. Please read
below what Dr. Colt's clients have had to say about this way of
doing therapy. |
Family counseling in San Diego
Often, families get "off track" as
their family matures due to internal changes (parenting and/or
adolescent challenges, medical problems, birth of a child,
miscarriage or other child loss), external events (financial and career changes) or a
combination of things. Understanding how these events and changes
affect each partner and the family can be a major first step forward.
Then, learning family coping tools and skills to better communicate and understand one
another, along with effective preventive measures, frequently results in
a happier, healthier family. Your family CAN improve. Simply

Dr. Colt's clients have had this to say:
"Dr.
Colt, Thank you for your time and counsel yesterday, both [Name] and I got a lot out of it and are excited about using the
[proprietary]
technique.
I was hoping to schedule with you again some time soon to get your
feed back on how [Name] and I interact. Please
let me know when you have your next opening. Best regards," -- W.F.
"Clearly, they (your clients,
D. & J.) think very highly of you and of all you have done with
them." -- Psychologist
"Of all the mediocre, and less
than mediocre, therapists I've seen, and I'm not patronizing you,
Marshall, you're the best therapist I've ever had." -- W.K.
"Thanks for your help last
week. ...we are both sincerely grateful that you were there...and we are
keeping you as "our guy" for counseling needs in the
future." -- H.B.
"[Name]
was adamant about not wanting to come to counseling, but now he actually
loves it!" -- Anonymous
"We had a good conversation the other night
after he spoke with you and at least I feel like we are talking again.
Thanks." -- K.D.
"I was impressed with your
straightforward, fair, no nonsense approach. I even told my
friends, 'This guy is good.'" -- D.R.
"I think we both feel that things are going
very well. You have helped us address the problem issues, and come
up with solutions. We both feel like we have gained a lot of
insight to each other." -- J.B.
"Dr. Colt:
Just wanted to thank you and let you know how much
yesterday's session meant to both of us. We both left feeling
fairly good about things and really look forward to seeing you in 2
weeks. I don't know why we waited so long to do this.
Yesterday was the first time we had really been together by ourselves
for a long time and on the way home, [Name] opened up with me and talked
about things and neither one of us got angry with the other." --
Z.T., Kansas
"Marshall, I thought you might be wondering
what ever happened to [us]? Just wanted to send a quick note to
say thanks. We made it through our pre-wedding (and post-wedding)
issues and have just had a new little addition to our family!
[Daughter] born at 1:15 am on Thanksgiving day! I wanted to send
you a note because you were the one who helped us turn things around!
We are happier than ever, we hardly remember what our issues were.
Seems like a distant memory now.... Thanks again!
Sincerely," -- G.J.
"NO! Thank you!
I feel [Name] and I are on the right
track. I am so grateful. If we can hold the course then I
think we can finally have the relationship that makes life worthwhile.
Thanks for your help. Also thanks for
your help with [Name] and [Name]. [Name] is a special soul and is
raving about you. I trust you implicitly" -- E.R.
"Hi Marshall: The other night you thanked me
for being patient. Well, I just wanted to thank you for everything
you're doing. [Name] seems to be doing much better. She
seems happier than I have known her to be in a very long time. She
seems hopeful and optimistic. She really feels like she is making
progress with you specifically and her life in general. So
"Thank You" with all my heart for helping my lady." --
B.E.
"Hey Marshall- Things
are going really well. [Name] and I have both been working hard to
improve our marriage dynamics.... We both feel that we have been moving
in the same direction over the last 6 months and we have really been
clicking over the last 4 months. We realize that there will be
some challenges along the way, but we feel better equipped to work
through the challenges now." -- H.J.
"Thanks
for asking. We are doing much better. We sold the old house, bought a
new house, and moved back in together.... We bought new wedding rings
and renewed our vows, and we took a trip to..., sort of as a second
honeymoon. We still have our little problems, but over all we are fairly
stable. We made an agreement before we moved back in together that if at
any time either one of us felt that things weren’t working, that we
would both go back to counseling before it got really bad again. It’s
kind of a joke between us now – when we get annoyed we say “don’t
make me have to call Marshall” : ) Thanks for all of your help during
that difficult time." -- C.D.
