When clients enter therapy, they often seek clarity about their emotions, relationships, or life direction. One of the most powerful tools in this process is identifying and understanding core values. Our values shape our decisions, influence our emotions, and serve as an internal compass during times of uncertainty.

Emotional vulnerability often feels like standing in the middle of a storm without an umbrella—exposed, raw, and at times overwhelming. Yet, within therapy, vulnerability is not a sign of weakness but a crucial step toward growth and healing. It’s through exploring these tender emotions that clients uncover deeper self-awareness and build resilience.

Parenting is often seen as an instinctual act, but the invisible threads of our past can profoundly shape how we nurture our children. Intergenerational trauma, the unresolved emotional wounds passed down from one generation to the next, can subtly influence parenting behaviors, attachment styles, and emotional regulation.
