Why the Name Vitalis?
When I opened my practice, I wanted a name that reflected what I want for my clients. I found that when I stumbled across the Latin word “vitalis.” The root meaning of vitalis is “of life” or “vital.” And this is what I want for my clients: a vital life. A life of vitality. A life of meaning and growth. Unfortunately, as I discovered, there is a certain age group who, instead, immediately thinks of the old hair gel! But I guess that just makes it easier for some people to remember my name. So, yes, Vitalis is an unusual name, but it perfectly encapsulates my mission as a therapist: to help people restore or create a life of meaning and vitality.
