An artist friend once described his creative process like this:
“I embark on a quest to find and connect with pieces of the heart—some battered, some lost, some hidden deep within. Embracing them, I discover treasures.”
To me, this captures the essence of psychotherapy.
Therapy is a sacred space where you slow down, listen closely, and begin hearing your own inner life with greater compassion and clarity. You may be here because of pain, confusion, disconnection, trauma, or a yearning for something more. Through all circumstances, therapy can help you reclaim those parts of yourself which are buried, redirected, or lost.
Yet, this work isn’t only about healing wounds. It’s also about excavating the delicious richness in you, including your joy, humor, creativity and aliveness. The deep work of looking inward makes room for relief which liberates vitality along with the full spectrum of being human.
