How we see change

Life is difficult and messy, and it can hurt a lot. However, we can choose how we respond, and change how we create…

Sometimes the biggest change we can make is internal, to adjust how we take life and other people, how we interpret situations and how we respond. However, sometimes we make life more difficult and messier than it needs to be.

At Head and Heart Counselling, we help you recognize how you approach relationships and decisions so that you can learn to take responsibility for your outer life and inner life in a way that radically changes how happy and fulfilled you can be.

Often the deepest changes occur when we relax our beliefs about ourselves and entertain a more fluid and open exploration of who and what we uniquely are.

In this culture, we don’t do a good job of really seeing one another. At Head and Heart Counselling, we endeavour to really see you, and LISTEN to you with compassion.

There are rare and radical teachers in the tantric, and non-dual wisdom traditions who give us invaluable insight on how to create deep changes in ourselves and our lives. They have roots in lineages going back to some of the most recognized Indian sages in history such as Nisargadatta Maharaja, Ramana Maharshi and Sri Atmananda Krishna Menon, as well as American esoteric philosopher Franklin Merrell-Wolff.

At Head and Heart Counselling, we are grateful for the guidance and examples these teachers have given us.

Head and Heart Counselling is informed by the work of Ken Wilber, Carl Jung, and teachers like Richard Moss, Francis Lucille, Lisa Cairns and Nicolas Gonzalez
