Life is an adventure

and therapy, too,

is an adventure —

into unknown and

previously unnoticed worlds.

Like life, therapy coaxes us to leave behind

that which we have outgrown — or that which has

been brutally shorn away from us.

During such times there may be a tendency to

focus on externals rather than spend time in

self-reflection. Yet it is in the very act of

psychotherapy's exploring inner landscapes which

ensures that new opportunities will not be missed.

This happens more readily when we feel deeply

seen, supported, and accompanied. Good

therapy can help us navigate all kinds of loss on a

sometimes excruciating journey that always

proffers jewel-like meaning.
