Why does this keep happening?

Maybe you keep finding yourself in toxic relationships, self-sabotaging when things are going well, or struggling with the same emotional patterns no matter how hard you try to change. It’s frustrating to feel stuck—like no matter what you do, you keep running into the same walls.

Maybe you:

  • Keep repeating unhealthy relationship patterns.

  • Struggle with setting (or sticking to) boundaries.

  • Feel like your emotions are running the show.

  • Get stuck in cycles of procrastination, avoidance, or self-doubt.

  • Have tried to change but always end up back where you started.

  • Feel exhausted from fighting the same battles over and over.

Patterns don’t happen randomly—your brain is wired to repeat what it knows, even when it’s not serving you. But with the right tools, you can break the cycle and create real change.

What Behavioural Therapy Can Do for You

Therapy helps you see the why behind your patterns—and gives you the skills to shift them. Using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and self-awareness work, we’ll focus on:

  • Recognizing emotional and behavioral cycles that keep you stuck.

  • Learning to respond to triggers differently.

  • Building confidence to make decisions that align with what you want.

  • Setting and maintaining boundaries that protect your energy.

  • Letting go of old narratives that no longer serve you.

  • Creating healthier, more fulfilling relationships—with yourself and others.

You don’t have to keep repeating the same stories. Let’s rewrite them together.
