Welcome

The decision to start with therapy can be daunting, especially when life feels out of balance.  It is not an easy task to find our authentic path.  I want to offer you a space to explore your next step on this journey.  Whether the aim is healing or growth, exploration or insight, Authentic Living Psychology can support you on the way.  Sometimes our greatest struggles become the invitation to a deeper relationship with ourselves, and a more wholehearted engagement with life.
