Psychotherapy

A long weekend can feel, on the surface, like an interruption to the usual rhythm of life. It promises relief, freedom, even indulgence. For some, it becomes an opportunity to push beyond ordinary limits, to socialise intensely, to drink more, to momentarily escape the constraints of structure. Yet this movement towards excess is not incidental. It reflects something deeper about our relationship to time, control, and the self.

Coping with change requires more than simple adjustment to new circumstances. It calls for a reorganisation of internal experience, particularly when familiar structures of identity, routine, or relationship are altered.
