AWARENESS BEFORE CHANGE
Therapy begins with awareness — recognising the patterns, emotional responses, and ways of coping that have become automatic over time.
From there, the work becomes understanding how those patterns developed, what maintains them, and how they continue shaping a person’s life.
The goal is not insight alone, but meaningful and lasting change.
