What Stops Us From Changing


When we start therapy for the first time, most of us have in mind something we want to change. Often it's an issue we've struggled with for a long time. Somehow we're pulled back to repeating the same pattern despite our best efforts. And while it is usually easy to identify the thing we want to change, focusing on it can blind us to the rest of the picture. It can make it hard for us to see the bits that we don’t want to change. And these hold the key.
