About

My belief is that this work should give you back choices rather than insight. Understanding why you react a particular way is interesting and it is not the point; the point is that the reaction stops running your calendar and your decisions without ever consulting you. So we aim at practical freedom. Survivors of difficult histories usually arrive with an impressive amount of self-knowledge and very little relief, having read extensively and changed nothing. That is not a failure of effort. Understanding operates on a different system from the one generating the response, which is why insight alone so rarely resolves it. By design I carry a small caseload because this work requires continuity and I want to know the particulars of your week without checking notes. If you understand yourself thoroughly and still cannot move, get in touch. Freedom is a more useful target than understanding, and it is reachable.
