Browsing this website is a significant act, one of courage and compassion. While a part of you may resist exploring therapy, another part brought you here. It considers the possibility that you can be deeply heard and known; trust and be trusted. That part knows it’s worth a try.
Whatever brings you to therapy is welcome and will be respected. Sometimes, we don't know why we seek therapy, only that something isn't right. Whether you're looking to heal from a past or current trauma, or simply grow as a person, therapy can help free you from burdens and thrive.
What if therapy isn't about finding out what's wrong with us, but rediscovering those parts of ourselves that have been buried? And what if healing isn't about fixing ourselves, but alleviating suffering by uncovering the depths of who we are? Therapy encourages self-curiosity and allows growth to happen naturally.
Starting therapy can be scary, but you won’t be doing it alone. Together we’ll think about your thinking, behaviours, and relationships, and wonder about the unconscious. We open things up in search of ourselves. Facing ourselves isn’t always easy but it is meaningful, and it brings us new possibilities.
D.W. Winnicott, a renowned English analyst, put the therapeutic project simply and elo-quently: “…the foundations of mental health of the adult are laid down in infancy and child-hood” and, further, he declared: “We must never forget that the picnic is the client’s picnic, and even the weather is the client’s weather”.
Sometimes we feel overwhelmed by life’s challenges; our familiar responses and assumptions don’t seem to be working for us anymore. It takes courage to seek out therapy and to speak openly about experiences, relationships, conflicts, depression, and anxiety. In therapy, we co-create an empathic space for deep listening, reflection, and insight.
If you are feeling stuck or are struggling with living the life you want, therapy can help. Talk therapy is a place where you can examine your feelings, thoughts, and patterns with support and empathy—it’s your space. This work can help you to experience increased authenticity and agency, and more satisfying relationships.
You may be considering therapy for any number of reasons: anxiety, depression, relational difficulties, or grief. Perhaps you are feeling stuck. Together, we will explore your feelings in depth through a unique process of self-discovery that offers the potential for growth and personal development.
People come to therapy for many reasons—to address a life-changing event, a loss, a struggle with alcohol and drug problems, or other health concerns. Whatever your situation, psychotherapy gives you the opportunity to speak with someone who will listen without judging, provide a safe and trusting environment, and offer professional guidance.
If you feel lost and need to talk to someone about the challenges of life, psychotherapy provides a compassionate and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions. This process helps you gain insight, cope with difficulties, and work towards personal growth and well-being.
