As much as we may want something or to be some way, we can find it difficult to arrive. Our work, then, is to examine ourselves in our beautiful complexity, to seek to truly understand and to fully experience ourselves, to become alive to our experience. In this way we come to allow ourselves to move forward and to discover new ways of being and relating. It is through learning to speak our truths, connecting with what we've always known but perhaps struggled to articulate, that we can find a new path forward.

Accepting New Clients. The feeling of being insecure and unmotivated when everyone around you seems to have everything figured out about their life, can be discouraging and frustrating. At times, it is like no matter how much you try nothing is good enough. It doesn’t take long for you to feel insecure about what you’re doing and doubting yourself. The way you communicate is an important factor. This not only towards yourself, it also includes the way you talk to your partner, family and friends. The words you use influence your thoughts, behaviours and body sensations.

Therapy can help people better understand themselves and find greater meaning in their lives. People enter therapy for a wide range of reasons, often involving difficulty solving a problem in their lives on their own. Some people, for example, are having difficulty in a romantic relationship and wonder how to improve the relationship, or end it. Other people experience conflict or anxiety in a wide range of interpersonal relationships and enter therapy as a means of improving their communication skills and the quality of their relationships. I help people in both monogamous and polyamorous relationships.
