Some of the best psychology shows up in unexpected places.

A simple six-letter question, found on a license plate, poses a foundational question for both therapists and clients when considering the purpose and direction of therapy.

Whether you are willing to pursue that question determines the course and effectiveness of the therapeutic process. For both therapists and clients, this moves the conversation…

...from what is believed to be the issue, to wondering why the issue exists in the first place.
...from being frustrated by life circumstances, to exploring what led to those circumstances.
...from focusing on a troubling behavior, to investigating what drives that behavior.
...from being uncomfortable with a feeling, to curiosity about what need that feeling expresses.
...from how we are going to label this condition, to what led to this condition.
...from being distracted by surface symptoms, to considering underlying causes.
...from thinking about what's wrong with someone, to focusing on what happened to them.

“If you own the story of suffering, of struggle, of pain, you can write the ending. If you do not own it, if you do not lay it out and pick up the pieces, if you orphan it, it will own you. You can either own suffering or it will own you. The only way through is through.”

- Brené Brown

People try to run, hide, bury, and disguise their stories in an effort to escape the pain that they hold. Eventually and inevitably their stories find them and demand to be heard.

When we run from the pain of our past, our story is incomplete, distorted and unintegrated. Emotional health and wholeness must include the ability to integrate and share our story openly, authentically, and without shame. When we live with unresolved stories, they resurface and replay themselves out continuously in our daily lives. They live us.

This is why a Story-informed approach is so essential.

Some of the best psychology shows up in unexpected places.

We are learning from the moment we are born.

Few people escape childhood without some wounds.

The best path to healing past trauma is through one's story.

“If you own the story of suffering, of struggle, of pain, you can write the ending. If you do not own it, if you do not lay it out and pick up the pieces, if you orphan it, it will own you. You can either own suffering or it will own you. The only way through is through.”
