Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RP
What I am going to share may sound impossible to believe. But learning how to compassionately hold or accept the chronic pain or illness you are living with while developing skills to remove barriers for fear in your mind can give you the freedom to live the life you want. How? Working together as a team, we will mindfully explore and develop skills to drop the internal battle with the fear of pain and suffering. Letting go of the fight against ourselves changes how we think about pain and suffering; it decreases the mental focus on pain, worrying and stress, releasing you from perpetuating the cycle of pain.
Perpetual Cycle of Pain = Connecting and focusing on pain and suffering leads to avoiding experiences that may create more pain and suffering. As lived experiences and social interactions get smaller because of avoidance, we become disconnected, lonely and isolated - creating additional pain and suffering.
Let's work together to empower you to drop the struggle, learn to work with yourself, and find freedom and fulfillment.
