I feel it is extremely important for us to strive to reach a point of self-actualization. Good therapy celebrates the uniqueness of each of us as human beings. It acknowledges that we are aware of ourselves and our world. It also acknowledges that we can change by exploring in depth how we have formed our view of ourselves and the world. Read More
