Stories in Mental Health

November 21 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Stories in Mental Health: The Stories we Tell Ourselves

We are excited to welcome the Psychotherapy & Healing Hub for this special presentation:

Every day, our minds create stories — about who we are, what’s possible, and where we belong. Some of these stories help us grow. Others hold us back.

Join Candice Thompson, a Registered Psychotherapist (Q) for an insightful and interactive talk exploring how our inner narratives shape our emotions and relationships — and how we can begin rewriting them with compassion and purpose.

Drawing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Narrative Therapy, this session will explore: How to notice and name unhelpful stories; the “drop the rope” metaphor for letting go of inner struggles; understanding the “narrator” within; writing new stories grounded in your values.

Participants are welcome to stay after the talk to ask questions or chat with Candice one-on-one.

No registration required.
