Life is filled with predictable and unpredictable changes and challenges in your world, your relationships, and yourself. Over time people create patterns, like scripts, to deal with such challenges. Sometimes the scripts work well and sometimes they don't. If your scripts aren't working or if you're facing challenges for which you have no scripts, counseling can assist by helping you discover new scripts and respond in new ways to challenges.
