Therapists serving people of every age, race, gender or sexual orientation in the Madison, WI area. The difficulties that bring people to therapy or counseling involve an interplay between the inner world and what is occurring in life. Growth and change are a constant, exciting part of being alive. But change rarely happens smoothly; there tend to be periods of struggle, then periods of ease.
Difficulty or pain, however it manifests, is a call to become more conscious of your personal evolution, and active in shaping its course. Your distress may indicate you have "outgrown" life as you have known it, or that your life is demanding you step up into new skills.

How do we know when to ask for help?
Everyone experiences periods of challenge in life - difficult situations at home or work, life events, couples' problems, feeling "blue" or anxious.
Sometimes it's hard to acknowledge what you're feeling isn't really normal fluctuations in mood anymore, but has become more chronic depression or anxiety.
Most people try to take care of these feelings on their own at first, or turn to friends or family.
But it doesn't always feel right to talk about everything with people in your life.
