Feb 13, 2020 | self care | 0 Comments

Feb 5, 2020 | Acceptance, Awareness, Emotional Healing, Growth, Healing, Recovery, Relationships, Self-Help | 0 Comments

Sometimes we must unravel so we can be properly knit back together, the way we were meant to be. Prior to going through therapy, I was generally an easy going person, at least on the outside. As a child I learned to appear "perfect" so others would like me. It wasn't...
