We can’t change things that have happened, but it is often possible to change our relationship to them.
A therapist can help you explore your experiences and your life-history, and in the process develop a fresh understanding of yourself and the events in your life, which can produce new ways of feeling and being.
The process of therapy is not always easy. It can’t solve every problem, and is not suitable for everyone. Sometimes things may feel worse before they start to feel better, so it is important to find a therapist who works in a way that suits you.
