Patterns don't just appear out of no where, they're adaptive responses to overwhelm, stress or unmet needs.

So instead of judging how you coped, let's get curious about the need for that behaviour.

Healing isn't about shaming, its about understanding.

Unhelpful habits?
Unhealthy relationships.
Difficulty setting boundaries?
Burnout?
Anxiety?
Poor sleep?

I have my own list of things I don't want to carry too, its not about being perfect, its about being real and finding the right balance.

I hit the mountains on the weekend thinking I just needed a little escape from the day to day stuff.

Turns out my soul needed so much more. I needed silence, space and stillness. I needed to reflect on some tough health decisions I had to make unexpectedly and quickly.

When your surrounded by wind, trees, ancient rocks and the people you love, you can't help but stop and listen.

The mountains have a way of humbling you, reminding you that peace doesn't come from escaping, it comes from turning inward and reflecting.

Look at me taking my own advice!

Choosing to see both realities in a situation gives you freedom to step out of black and white thinking and into honesty.

Being honest with how you feel, rather than who you were told to be, replaces the distress from confusing and conflicting thoughts.

This is how we grow

I won't fill every silence.
I wont invalidate your pain.
I won't sugar coat your patterns.

Therapy is not always comfortable, its requires courage, curiosity and a deep need to grow.

I'm here for it all.

If this resonates, it's a sign that you're beginning to see the patterns that once helped you survive but now hold you back.

Those behaviours aren't faults, they're strategies that you intelligently put in place very early on that made sense at the time.

But maybe now the people pleasing or the over achieving is exhausting and holding you back from healthy relationships, career or just feeling like your bring authentically you.

Let's find the real empowered, confident you.
