Sometimes the stress of life can feel like more than we're prepared for. A loss of a loved one, financial pressures, or a change in a relationship, can seriously impact one's quality of life.

Living life on life's terms can be challenging. If you are overwhelmed by stress, find yourself repeating dysfunctional patterns in your personal life, reliving past hurts or experiencing difficulty navigating life transitions, therapy can provide relief. Relationship problems, anxiety, depression, and physical ailments are all common symptoms signaling that it may be time to address possible underlying issues which can cause emotional and mental pain. The experience of psychotherapy should be illuminating, validating and empowering. Choosing the right therapist is key.

For many people just a few positive changes in this area can help them establish healthier and stronger bonds with those close to them.
