Although we cannot avoid life’s pain and trauma, we do not have to process it alone. I see counseling as a collaborative and supportive process that can aid in one's healing. Maya Angelou said, “You can’t really know where you are going until you know where you have been.” I believe it is imperative to evaluate our life story and the meaning we have attached to our experiences. Recognizing the root of our maladaptive thoughts and emotional distress allows us to receive the hope and healing needed to move towards a satisfying and purpose-filled life.
