OFFICES OF LYDIA S GLASS PHD
Psychotherapy is an intentional interpersonal relationship intended to increase an individual’s sense of well-being. For some, therapy can offer relief from the emotional pain caused by traumatic events. For others, it can offer a unique perspective of how and why we respond to external events in our environment; provide soundness and clarity of mind; and healthful alternatives to the choices we make.
