Morita therapy

Morita therapy is a type of therapy from Japan that helps people feel better about their emotions and situations. It helps people learn how to deal with negative thoughts and feelings and live a life with more positive feelings instead.

It is based on understanding that life can be difficult and filled with challenges. The therapists helps clients learn to accept the reality of things, that it is okay to feel down or sad, but to also realize that these feelings will pass and not to focus on them too much.

Morita Therapy helps clients to focus on what they can do today to make their life better, rather than spending too much time worrying about the past or worrying about the future. It teaches clients how to let go of negative thoughts and focus on the present.
