Being a human means inevitably facing a rollercoaster of feelings and experiences in our lifetime. Sometimes things feel good and fulfilling; and sometimes we are hit with unpredictable challenges that lead us to wonder what our role is in our relationships, situations, grief, and more. Being a human also means reflecting on times in our lives that impact the way we navigate and see the world. The way we deal with our feelings is heavily informed by several factors such as our attachment, validation, culture, and relationships; often triggering our defenses that cloud us from truly seeing what is happening in front of us. Individual therapy is your space to reflect and sit with what is and making meaning of it all. It's a space where you can authentically reflect, challenge yourself, process, cry, laugh, and more. It's a space where you are given direct, yet gentle, feedback from your therapist to build broader insights.
