I have incorporated the healing tools that I have found particularly useful into a Tool Guild. You can find my old(er) writing on many of these tools in the Healing Tools category:

• Mindfulness & Meditation
• Focusing
• Needs and Strategies
• Rational Living: REBT and CBT
• Forgiveness
• Meaning Making in Action

There, I also include information on current research to allow for a more objective evaluation if you are interested in such an evaluation. I don’t feel very confident that any of the methods presented here are “scientifically valid” yet they have been useful to me.

You can check this site to find information on the scientific research of specific psychological approaches. Some of these tools might be subjectively helpful despite the lack of evidence that they really are…
