About Vivien K Zak
Many times we approach therapy as a last resort, when most everything else has not worked, been a disappointment or created more confusion.
Some people know what is missing in their lives, but with no idea how to begin to find it. Others know that something is not right, but not what that "something" is.
Whatever may have brought you to the moment in time when you are looking at this page, it is a unique opportunity to begin -- or continue -- to look at your life with another person essentially bearing witness to the process.
Together we work toward understanding what your unique struggles look and feel like, so you can begin to articulate what you think you want and need in your life, right now.
And we go from there, helping you to begin to articulate your unique questions, eventually moving toward a deeper understanding of those questions, and of yourself.

"You have not grown old, and it is not too late
To dive into your increasing depths
Where life calmly gives out its own secret."
- Rainer Maria Rilke, Austrian poet (1875-1926)
