Stefan Shepherd

Human life can be filled with such beauty, wonder, love, and inspiration. Coming along with these internal experiences are other ones, the ones we call unhelpful. They follow us, too.

• You may get a feeling that you are out of control or that you are trying to control relationships.

• Somewhere along the way, you may have lost the ability to really trust others.

• You may have big, unexpected feelings.

• Maybe you know that you need to face these feelings, but you are not sure how.

• You may already sense that there is something scary on the periphery of your awareness and don’t want to go there.

Above all, let me impart this onto you: psychological problems are common and within each of us is the power to heal ourselves, given the right conditions. Psychotherapy is suited to those seeking to cultivate such conditions.
