Therapy is deeply personal work, and the connection between you and your counsellor can make all the difference. So, how do you know that you've found a good one?

When we get caught in overthinking, it’s easy to lose touch with the steady, quiet sense of what feels right for us. Often, the answer only comes when we find a way to step out of our head and back into our body.

Being consistently 'nice' and moving to the back of the line, so to speak, has its rewards. From the outside, self-sacrifice can look very much like compassion and kindness. But so often, it comes from a place of fear.

Anxiety often arises when we are out of alignment with our truth. It can appear as a tightness in the chest, racing thoughts, or an unshakable sense of dread - but at its core, it’s an invitation. It asks us to come back to ourselves, to return to the moment, and to examine what’s no longer serving us.
