The way that society has taught you to think about life and happiness can sometime lead to confusion and suffering. Improving your mental health at times involves un-doing what you learned about what is suppose to make you feel "happy".

Relationship breakdowns, career changes, death of a family member and childhood traumas can really impact a person's sense of mental health and well-being. Despite this tragedies alone aren't what causes mental health problems such as depression and anxiety. In fact, in can be everyday life experiences that leads to a sense of stuck-ness, overwhelm and frustration especially if you feel you are not "succeeding" or meeting your own or others expectations.

You may have everything you need to survive including food on the table, a roof over your heads and people who care about you and yet, you may still feel like there is something missing in your life. Sometimes you may feel guilty for this as it can feel like you are experiencing "first-world problems", yet living everyday with this feeling that "something is missing" "something is not quite right" can be difficult especially if you are faced with these problems alone.

Therapy is a safe place where you won't be judged. You don't have to filter yourself, you can speak your truth and let your thoughts untangle so you can feel heard and supported. You will learn practical strategies to develop a better relationship with yourself and others so that you can move forward towards your valued direction in life.

"I believe everything is transient, nothing lasts forever, including the difficult experiences we have in life. Sometimes what we need to do is to let go of control, trust the human experience and take the plunge.When we are willing to feel the discomfort and let go of every things else, that's when we are most capable to grow"
