Beginning therapy is not easy.

Examining your own challenges requires courage and resolve.  Feeling apprehensive is common.  Therapy is a long-term investment in yourself and in your desire to live a fuller, more satisfying life. With a lot of effort and patience, I believe that the therapeutic process pays off. 

People often come to therapy because they are in the midst of an acute crisis, one causing them distress or unhappiness – a break-up, a loss, a period of depression. 

Although the therapeutic process often starts in this way, it frequently evolves into a much deeper exploration of self-awareness and healing.  It provides a place to challenge self-beliefs and self-doubts and to come to know and love your true self. 

Suffering is an inevitable part of the human experience, but in the therapeutic process, suffering is a beginning, not an ending.
