About

Most people come to therapy with a specific symptom or problem, which they hope to change. It may be a particular fear such as a fear of flying or of speaking up in groups; it may be a more general, distressing, feeling of depression or loneliness, or it may be a pattern of behavior that is disruptive - a pattern such as a tendency to be hypercritical, a difficulty in taking initiative or an inability to keep one's own needs and wishes firmly in mind.

In exploring their on-going life experience, they often come to a deeper and more nuanced understanding of who they are, where they've been, and what they want in the future.
