A discovery is said to be an accident meeting a prepared mind. - Albert Szent-Gyorgyi From my experience of therapy, discovery for my clients comes from listening to their own ideas, their own thoughts, their own intuitions about their life stories, in conversation with another whose curiousity helps unfold what is within that story. My experience has been that the examined life can lead to discovery that is surprising and unknown. Therapy is a private and unique collaboration where you can consider your life within a supportive, confidential setting. I hope to provide a flexible, empathic ...
