The purpose of therapy, as I have learned to see it, is to help someone become more objective about the way they see themselves and the world. How? by understanding where they end and someone else begins. Most of us think that what we think is objective, yet life has not provided the results we hoped for, and we are unable to figure out why. It is the goal of treatment to show you how to listen to yourself more clearly with the intent of freeing you to experience your life in a more positive way.
