There are some hardships in life that cannot be easily forgotten. These experiences influence how we view ourselves and navigate relationships with others. There is a natural tendency to re-enact the woes because of it's familiarity. The therapeutic alliance will help us learn from the past, become more aware from the present, and establish a safe outlook for the future.
The ultimate goal is to learn to dance with our spirits and harness our destitute as protective factors. I am not here to change you but become a part of your journey.
Sometimes, we need someone to simply hear us, accept us for who we are, and make us feel safe. This can be a challenge considering everything in our society is based on reciprocity, not altruism. The cacophony from the city can be overwhelming. Let's slow things down and tackle the oppressive entities that we sometimes forget to recognize.
