Create more meaning in your life and find more energy and joy.
Most people seek care at a time of crisis, transition or loss. A chapter in your life may be ending or a new one beginning. Something feels wrong, and sometimes your body even gives you signals. Perhaps friends or family have encouraged you to seek help.
