The bud
stands for all things,
even for those things that don’t flower,
for everything flowers, from within, of self-blessing;
though sometimes it is necessary
to reteach a thing its loveliness,
to put a hand on the brow
of the flower
and retell it in words and in touch
it is lovely
until if flowers again from within, of self-blessing.

–Galway Kinnell
(from Saint Francis and The Sow)

Psychotherapy, Consultation, and Education

Myra J. Mayesh, MA, MFT

I believe people carry the potential for their own healing.

Sometimes our lives get out of balance, or we have painful experiences or lose fundamental connections to others or to parts of ourselves. At times like these, it can really be helpful to meet with a therapist who can give you honest reflection, compassionate support, and thoughtful guidance. In this way you can gain self-acceptance, make meaning of your experience, and begin to move toward positive change.

If you are struggling with relationship problems, depression, anxiety, relentless self-criticism, or other life issues, then I may be able to help. Together, we will address the conflicts, patterns, and blocks that keep you from realizing your strengths and reaching your potential. I can guide you to gain new perspective and move toward healing and satisfaction.
