psychotherapy involves you and your therapist working together using psycho-social principles and developing a strong professional relationship in order to make positive changes in thoughts, emotions, and behaviours

the goals of therapy
the core goals of therapy are to:
- humbly examine our everyday beliefs and assumptions
- expand our awareness of how we elicit respect from ourselves and others
- honestly assess the validity and helpfulness of our thoughts
- brave our triggers and challenges to develop effective coping strategies
- modify negative habits to stand strong in our truth
- apply wise principles to cultivate our preferred narrative and achieve our wellness goals
- feel heard and cared for within the therapeutic relationship
