Are you struggling? Feeling stuck? Does fear have a hold on you? Maybe you are feeling alone, lost, anxious or disconnected. Or maybe something just doesn't feel right. You are seeking some insight and some ways to connect to meaning, to yourself, and to others. What would it be like to be fully engaged in life? Pema Chödrön says “When things are shaky and nothing is working, we might realize that we are on the verge of something”. The truth is, we all need help at times. With compassionate support, I will walk alongside you as we work on your life’s challenges so you may move forward with courage, confidence, and compassion.

Therapy can help you find your way. It’s an opportunity to slow down, connect to your inner wisdom, and acquire tools to navigate your life’s journey. You may find yourself connecting or reconnecting with what matters to you. Engaging in life is feeling it fully - all of it. With therapy you can learn to feel engaged, not overwhelmed.

Working together, you can discover your strengths, qualities, and values, so you can uncover new possibilities and experience more ease, joy, and connection. Embrace your life more deeply and fully. You deserve the space, time, and support. I would be honoured to be your guide. Learn more on my website about how I can support you on the Barefootmind journey.

Mindfulness Meditation for Adults

Hosted by

Carla Abrams Counselling For Teens And Adults

People come to mindfulness and meditation practices for many reasons - curiosity, anxiety, pain, learning strategies for calming the mind, and more. Mindfulness is paying attention to the present moment, shifting out of autopilot and awakening to the here and now, freeing yourself from regrets about the past and worries about the future. You will gain an understanding of how to be with difficult thoughts and emotions so they don't cause overwhelm. You will learn mindfulness practices and strategies that guide you back to the present moment, so energy is restored —and you feel restored to your life.
