Introduction

When we're young, it's easy to think we have all the answers. But, as we get older, we often find that our relationships with friends, colleagues, family members, partners, and our selves no longer work the way they once did. They may still be there, but they no longer provide us the joy or fulfillment we once took for granted. Even when we try to do things differently, quite often the same unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and problems kick back in and play themselves out over and over again. To make matters worse, feelings of helplessness about how to resolve our problems often arise, and we may even feel responsible and guilty about being the cause of our own issues. But these feelings only compound our difficulties. If any of this sounds familiar... if you feel like you missed out on your copy of How to Live a Rewarding Life... you're not alone. Fortunately, help is available! Psychotherapy is all about creating change... Letting go of thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and beliefs that are no longer working. That no longer provide happiness, a sense of control, or the outcomes you desire. Similar to hiring a medical doctor to treat and heal physical pain, a psychotherapist can help you treat and heal the emotional pain that interferes with your ability to function or experience fulfillment and joy in your professional and personal life. Unfortunately, while most people have little inhibition about seeking the professional help of a doctor when faced with medical problems, our culture doesn't value emotional and behavioral health as highly and being vulnerable is often seen as leaving one's self open to abuse or aggression. For these and other reasons, many people don't consider seeking professional help when they encounter emotional pain. But emotional pain can be just as detrimental to your ability to live a happy, healthy, and rewarding life as any chronic medical issue! Are You Ready to Create the Change You Desire?
