About

I imagine a client being stuck in-between two worlds. This client has a desire to be accepted by friends, family, and loved ones that contrasts with their desire to be themselves. As a bi-sexual male who is also a first generation Canadian, I have experienced the difficulties of being pulled between both of these worlds. To be yourself, truly, and authentically? Or to conform to your surroundings? "No man can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude without finally getting bewildered as to which may be true." - Hawthorne. Embracing who you are can be terrifying, but it can also be the most empowering decision.
