Most likely you have tried to feel better on your own; some things may have helped, but not always fully or lasting. The source of some problems can be identified while other problems are vague and unclear. In the end, you come with your own set of difficulties and life circumstances. I believe psychotherapy enhances our natural tendency to understand ourselves as we strive to realize our hopes and aspirations."
