Therapy or counseling focuses on easing suffering and addressing emotional needs that are unmet.

 

The work done is with a licensed professional, trained to assist you in understanding and confronting your difficulties.

 

Time spent in therapy focuses on the healing of childhood or relational issues that have impacted how you see the world, and how you engage in relationships, or avoid them altogether.

 

Ultimately, the work done in counseling will focus on achieving contentment and emotional well-being.
