Becoming You
Psychotherapy and Becoming You
From larvae to butterfly, a continual cycle of evolution. It may not comprehend from where it came or how it came to be, and it may not comprehend what it has developed into; but needless to say, any challenges in its evolutionary journey had to be overcome through trust in itself, in its own intrinsic abilities, and in its becoming.
As small and fragile as the butterfly appears to be, its strength is found hidden in its core, in its divine makeup, it was going to evolve whether it wanted to or not.
Be an active participant in your evolutionary journey…….

The Therapeutic Relationship
A therapeutic relationship needs to be built on trust, safety, empathy, and acceptance which forms the foundations of the relationship. With solid foundations in place, it creates a space where the individual can explore and manage their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours without entering into a power struggle…….
Integrative Approach
We are all different, so different approaches to therapy are necessary. Whether that be a humanistic, psychoanalysis, or a cognitive behavioural approach, it matters not. What matters is the delivery and whether it is the right therapy, or mix for you…..
Entering into therapy, is saying YES to an evolutionary, and explorative journey into Becoming You.
Embracing Yin and Yang
When we come to that place where we can embrace the Yin and Yang of self, we know we have reached a place of acceptance. Not a place of complacency, but a place of acceptance that not all things can necessarily be healed or made whole in this life-time.
We come to realize that like Yin and Yang, our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours move in a harmonic convergence of fluidity. As we become more conscious of our own divinity, we embrace our journey to wholeness.
