Dear Reader: The reason I get out of bed every morning is not because I believe life is easy - but that it is difficult. What makes life difficult is the fact, that it presents an endless series of problems which require solutions. The very process of confronting and solving life's problems can be a painful one; at times full of sadness, confusion, anxiety, hurt, anger, fear and loneliness. These are uncomfortable feelings, sometimes highly distressing and can equal the worst kind of physical pain. Fearing the suffering involved, almost all of us have attempted to avoid confronting these problems.
![If you feel stuck as if your life is not going the way it should or it lacks meaning I can work with you to gain understanding and open a path forward](https://photos.psychologytoday.com/51d90a50-46cd-11ea-a6ad-06142c356176/1/medium.jpeg)
This avoidance eventually takes a physical toll, causing mental fragmentation whereby we feel stuck, deprived of experiencing legitimate joy and happiness in a meaningful existence. Fortunately however, many gain the courage to face these problems, learn & grow through them - and finally out of them - mostly with the help of psychotherapy.
Seeking psychotherapy can feel like an insurmountable task. However, the power of a 'mini-step' cannot be underestimated. By taking the first step forward, my clients have made consistent progress, found creative solutions & fulfilled their potential in remarkable ways. So what if you too decided to take a step forward?
