“I believe that therapy should help people with emotional distress learn coping tech-
niques and problem-solving skills to restore a sense of control and happiness in their
lives. People can deepen their awareness of themselves and others and live with greater
fulfillment and creativity by identifying and understanding life’s conflicts or events.”
