The present is the ever moving shadow that divides yesterday from tomorrow. In that lies hope. - Frank Lloyd Wright. One of my main goals in the therapeutic relationship is to be a guide for people to have a safe space to develop what they already hold and have within to create the change they are seeking.

You’ve realized you’re drinking or getting high more than you planned to and more than you want to but don’t know how to stop. The shame is dragging you down and you’re too embarrassed to admit you have a "problem." People in your life are concerned and want to offer help but what they’re offering just isn’t what you think you need. You might be numbing how you feel about letting things get to this point and not being able to change. Maybe someone else thinks your behavior is a problem and as much as you’d rather just get them off your back, there’s a part of you that’s starting to agree and wondering what you can do about it.
