....The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am,
then I can change...
~Carl Rogers~
Welcome.
I am glad you made it here. Taking the first step to explore your options can be one of the most challenging when seeking psychological services or navigating the health system. I hope that the information and resources listed on this page may help you get a step closer to what you are looking for.
Curious Paradox is a small private practice committed to providing evidenced-based psychological services with integrity to individuals (age 16+) who:
1. Want to learn about coping with burnout
2. Are dealing with diabetes distress
3. Want to make changes to their behaviours (i.e., diet, exercise, stress reduction) for the benefit of their health
Does any of this sound familiar?
You feel burned out – depleted or on the verge of it.
You find yourself stuck in your head.
You have tried to dig yourself out of this rut and your efforts have not been successful.
You are struggling internally as you continue with your daily activities. Others may have no idea how challenging it is for you to just keep up.
Your life story is not turning out as you expected – or – when you look around you, life is exactly as you thought it could be. Unfortunately, your feelings inside do not match your life on the outside.
You find yourself puzzled, confused because you have typically been a “high achiever” and have been able to successfully navigate so many challenges.
You find yourself so frustrated because you find you aren’t doing what you “know” you “should” be doing to take care of yourself.
You are questioning, “who am I?” as you try to make sense of all of these pieces of information.
If these prompts sound like you – I really invite you to keep exploring.
If you are not sure, you are equally welcome to keep scrolling! Feel free to peruse as you might find a link to a new resource that might help you get one step closer to where you need to be (or help you get clearer in what you are NOT looking for).
