More about Raya Smail, LMFT
Hello, and well come to my psychotherapy practice.
If you have made your way to this page, you are probably struggling with a "relationship problem"--either in relation to someone else, or in relation to yourself. If so, you have come to the right place.
Freud has defined the aim of psychotherapy as:
"... transforming neurotic misery into common unhappiness."
Not a particularly optimistic outcome.
Why than, would I choose this quote, you may ask, to recommend psychotherapy as a choice of treatment?
It is my belief that the outcome of treatment aims to reduce suffering, by understanding oneself and coming to terms with one's past, which, in turn, gives one the option to pursue happiness.
