Therapists in Upland, CA

To paraphrase a Greek philosopher, the only thing constant is change; in fact, life is full of changes and challenges. When feeling confident and strong, we can usually adapt fairly well to stresses and obstacles. It's different, though, when unpleasant emotions or complex issues seem to drain practically all the energy we can muster just to get through the day. Feeling overly confused or frustrated, maybe even lost or helpless, might mean it's time to reach out to someone who can help us identify, work through, and manage whatever is getting in the way of our happiness and peace of mind. I could be just that person for you.
