The therapist needs
the courage to guide the client
through difficult realizations
by remaining honest and
authentic, while at the same
time providing the safety and
support that makes change
possible.
Life always entails transitions,
loss of loved ones, of health,
of youth, of wealth, of
friendships, of strength, of
work, of expectations.
Feelings of powerlessness often
result from such life-altering
transitions. During times
like this, we can find in
therapy our only enduring power:
the ability to choose how we
will handle these transitions,
how we will cope.
The ability to cope depends in
large part on what we have
learned in our original
families, how we see ourselves
because of it, what wounds we
carry from the past, what
strengths we can lean on and
further develop.
All of this and more in the work
of therapy. It is a
process I believe in and have
committed myself to. I
look forward to working with
you.
