Therapist in Corvallis, OR Dinel Steiner, Therapist

The Challenge
How will you know how strong you are unless your strength is tested? How will you know how deep you are unless turmoil breaks your surface and forces you to dive? How will you know what sleeps inside until the whole of you is challenged to wake up? Then you’ll turn inside to gather your resources, your untapped reserves of strength and skill, then rise like a sun, amazed by your own brightness, stronger than you ever suspected, deeper than you ever dreamed.
