- Balancing Coping and Resolution: Coping skills are useful, but true healing requires understanding and working through past experiences rather than just managing symptoms.
- Therapy as an Active Process: Effective therapy goes beyond symptom relief—it encourages emotional exploration and helps people break free from patterns that keep them stuck.
- A Path to Lasting Well-Being: Mental health and addiction recovery are not just about endless symptom management—they involve finding the right tools to navigate emotions, process experiences, and move forward with clarity and strength.
