Welcome to the Therapy Triangle! I'm Dr. Rob Burkham, a clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience. I want to help you get the most out of your therapy sessions. I've found that many people don't seek out professional help because they don't know if therapy works and they don't know what to expect. Or they've tried therapy and haven't gotten much out of it.
There is little information on the web or in bookstores that can guide you in your therapeutic endeavors the way my site and my book can. Most other writers focus on the techniques used by therapists but techniques are not nearly so important as the relationship, the connection, which develops between therapist and client. My mission is to show you what a good therapy relationship is like (and what a bad one is like!) so that you can be empowered to make the changes you want.The Therapy Triangle, both the book and website, are designed to help you use professional help to reach your goals.
| What If? |
- You have begun to think that psychotherapy (or “counseling”) could be a good idea for you. But you don’t have a clear picture of how it could help.
- You have just started therapy and you’re wondering if you’ll really be able to make the changes you want with the therapist you’re seeing.
- You are a “therapy veteran” who has been in therapy for awhile but it hasn’t been all you hoped it would be. You’ve gained some insight into yourself and made some small changes but you wonder if there is more.
- Previous therapy has left a bad taste in your mouth and you want to find out what truly helpful therapy is like.

"Dr. B, thank you for this site and for your book; they are making a difference. I have searched long and hard for info to help the therapy client; this is some of the best I have found."
"I read a lot of books on therapy and have often lamented the lack of info for clients, which is why I was very happy to stumble on your website last week and get your book. Thank you for the practical, reliable help you offer to those of us in the trenches of the therapeutic process!"
"I read your book and it was riveting for me. I understand so much more and will make better choices in my next therapist."
"I enjoyed your book, it has helped me understand how my last Dr was not helping me. It should help me find one who will help. I have wasted a lot of time by not knowing how therapy should work. I feel I am on the right track now Thanks again!"
