Do you struggle with meaning and purpose in life? Do you find yourself around others but feel disconnected from them? Does it feel as if something is holding you back, and that you’re not able to be your true self, or create the life that you are wanting for yourself? Perhaps pain from the past keeps you from enjoying the present, or fears of the future keep you from making necessary changes. Or maybe you feel restricted by societal or cultural values and beliefs that do not seem to support who you are. If so, therapy may be a space to discover, connect with and give voice to the many parts of yourself, without fear of judgment.
