Toxic Positivity Vs Chronic Pessimism
The reality is that life isn’t supposed to be wonderful all the time. That is not only impossible, it’s boring and exhausting. While we hope that adversity, challenges and difficulties are manageable and short lived, we should remind ourselves that problems are a part of life and will come our way now and then. More accurately, there are always things in our life that are imperfect, uncomfortable, undesirable and sometimes even catastrophic.
End of Year Counselling
The most important thing to remember is that this time of year is filled with opportunities to change your perspective, release the things from the previous year that you don’t need anymore, and move into the future stronger, wiser and more content.
Reciprocal Relationships
We all want equity and balance in relationships. That is how we thrive, how we develop our connections and grow into authentic and content human beings, working together to have a quality of life. It is how we heal intergenerational injustices and how we leave a healthy legacy behind for future generations. Negotiating relationships individually and collectively is the crux of the human experience.
Trauma Informed Therapy
Navigating the source, triggers, impact of, and remedy for trauma safely occurs best when contained in a professional therapeutic space, with evidence-based theoretical foundations and methods. Of course, ultimately, a client-led, autonomous approach works best, giving individuals agency over their own decision-making abilities and strengths. However with the right guidance and support, you are more likely to get a quality and long-term result than if you continue in survival mode, skirting around the issues alone. Making informed choices through a robust, trustful therapeutic alliance is protective, and facilitates the safe exploration of ideas and options.
