"Psychotherapy creates a safe and uncritical space for the patient to locate their difficulties, their confused and painful feelings, and the dilemmas they face. The psychotherapist has no ready-made solutions, advice or instructions for all this, but rather assists the process of exploration and discovery of the patient's truth. Psychotherapy is a process fraught with difficulties. In this discourse, feelings and experiences that we have repressed or "forgotten" often surface. It takes willingness and courage to look within ourselves to understand the recurring situations in our lives and connect them to their source. Psychotherapy is not a panacea, miracles do not happen with its help, but it does help to free up space within ourselves so that something new and different can happen in our lives. It has a positive effect on our relationships and connections with those around us, as well as our experience of the world in general."
