By the time people get to me they’ve often tried many things. They’ve read self-help books, perused articles, confided in friends about problems that just don’t seem to go away. Those issues span the gamut, from difficulty with family members to on-the-job problems, to outright trauma, to a nagging sense of dissatisfaction with life. “What can I do about this?” people want to know. My answer is usually something along the lines of “Let’s try to understand more.” Things are often not what they seem at first glance. My office is a place to figure things out, to increase empathy for yourself and others, and to make needed changes.
We all have things we find difficult to face about ourselves, events that happened to us, feelings we have felt, actions we have taken, words we have spoken. The first-line defense is to try not to think about those things, and sometimes that works. But there may come a time when the burden is too great to bear. Often talking with an empathic other can help.
The stress of the current social and political climate can exacerbate difficulties that were previously more manageable. If you feel now is the time to tackle some issues that having been plaguing you for a while and that have come to a head, feel free to reach out to me or to read more on my website.
