Female Therapists in Central Park, New York, NY

Life is difficult, and what makes it difficult usually involves other people. You can't change them, and changing yourself... who wants to stop being themselves to please other people? What you CAN change is how you RELATE to other people: how you act, how you think, what you're willing to put up with. A lot of pain is caused by our own limited view of ourselves; we contain much more than we know. I do talk therapy and art therapy, either or both -- that's up to you. You know more about you.
