“Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth.” – Alan Watts. Sounds pretty pointless and dumb to me (and probably to dentists everywhere). Attempting to work on yourself alone only takes you so far and really drags out the Suffer-Fest. That’s what therapy is all about; an unbiased, collaborative relationship, preferably with someone who actually gives a shit (me, hi), that can help you to understand and accept yourself fully.

Watch how a person builds a sandcastle, a philosopher once said. The first person will proceed hesitantly, fretting about the inevitable return of the waves. The second person won't even start: why bother, the tide will only destroy it. The third person embraces the unavoidable and throws themself into the work regardless, joyful but not oblivious. We often feel like all three people at once, leaving us confused and stuck. The aim of my work is emotional intelligence, which is the capacity to reconcile the contradictions inside ourselves in order to become more vital, creative, flexible, and accepting of our self.
