Why seek counseling ?

No one comes to therapy because they are happy and life is turning out like they expected or wanted. People come to therapy to feel better. They are looking for answers, working to make changes that they need to make, and needing to find acceptance of situations that are beyond their control.
 
It is our nature to seek understanding and to be understood.
We all have the capacity to find love and peace within ourselves and in our relationships. 
Psychotherapy can help us fulfill these very human desires. Many challenges can be resolved
in just a few sessions. Some issues do take more time, and that is a worthy process.

Therapy may seem threatening, as it will likely create change. Even a positive change can be frightening.
We cling to what we think we know, and the familiar, no matter how painful.
This is often the root of our suffering.

Change happens, whether we like it or not. It is undeniable and unavoidable.
Therapy increases our conscious participation in this process.
It can help us be more deeply and meaningfully involved in our life experiences and personal evolution.
