Frequently, we also don't believe things can be any different, and if we do, we don't know how to get there.

From there, deeper change can occur, allowing you to release the effects of the past, change your beliefs about yourself and move into greater self-acceptance. Lastly, we focus on integrating your definition of thriving, not just surviving.
