When the storm rages on the surface of the ocean, calm reigns at the bottom."
(J. Geffen)

Even when the greatest storms of existence rage, at the deepest level our being remains intact. The connection we have with it helps us to withstand and overcome inner turmoil, feelings of loss, emptiness or alienation. Psychotherapy helps to strengthen this connection.
