How do you get through tough moments?

Do not trust the way you see yourself when your mind is turbulent and remember that even pain is
temporary.

Honour your boundaries, treat yourself gently, let go of perfection, and feel your emotions without letting them control you.

You have enough experience to face the storm and evolve from it.

Why is Psychotherapy so impactful?

There are a variety of reasons, but one of the main factors is the connection Psychotherapy fosters between the conscious and subconscious mind.

Why is this connection important?

Put very simply, by a wise and renowned Psychiatrist:

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” - Carl Jung

Daily Reminder

You are not limited to your local community when it comes to finding a therapist!

With virtual options like online psychotherapy and tele-therapy, the practitioner options have become nearly endless.

The outcome of the therapeutic process depends heavily on the rapport between the client and therapist - in layman’s terms - if you don’t like your therapist, the benefit of therapy is compromised. This means it is crucial you find a therapist you *wholeheartedly* want to work with.

Things to keep in mind when looking for a therapist:

1. Know what you are looking to achieve out of therapy

2. Take your time

3. Honour your intuition

4. Consult multiple therapists before hiring

5. Investigate options within and outside of your community so you can find the best possible fit for YOU and your specific goals

The parking signs are being taken over. Some will say property maintenance is needed. Others will admire the summertime beauty.
