ALL ABOUT THERAPY

The Process of Designing You

Therapy is about you!  It is about identifying your hopes, dreams, desires, and understanding what prevents or holds you back from those ideals.  Therapy aims to build on your strengths, knowing that you know what best for you (even if that is not so clear right now).  A therapist can help to guide you toward healing and wellness through the utilization of thier individual training and experience. Generally, it is the therapist's intent to help you live your best life, or at the very least a life without suffering.  This doesn't mean that you won't encounter problems, disappointments, and just downright terrible occurrences, because after all that is part of what it means to be human.  However, you may become better equipped to manage the difficulties as they arise.  It is also completely plausible that you might move even closer to living a life you love, one that more directly aligns with your desires and values.  Finally, it's important that you understand, that each therapist's approach helping others differs based on the individual therapist's therapeutic orientation (i.e., how they understand people, challenges, and how change occurs), training, experience, as well as, the unique characteristics of the therapist (i.e., the person of the therapist).  Research tells us that despite all the factors that make therapy successful, the relationship you build with your therapist is one of the most important.  For more information on our team members and their unique approaches to therapy please click the link below.
