‘You can’t stop the waves, but you can learn how to surf’
Jon Kabat-ZinnHow Talking Can Help…
Therapy aims to provide an environment where you can be listened to in confidence by an impartial, skilled professional who seeks to facilitate you to find your way forward.
Sometimes it can take a little time to understand, find the right questions, articulate the problem as such. It is in this exploration, a bit like a self-diagnosis that understanding and a way forward… unique to you may be found.
Sometimes we need to take into account what each of us can change, in ourselves and in our environment. We can’t change our past but we do have the capacity and freedom to choose how we live with the past, perhaps it can be held in a different way, cause less suffering or pain and influence the future less.
