A message from Dr. Reece Malone
In this time of uncertainty, our hope for these sessions is to hold space for those navigating their relationships and those who hold space for others in a relationship. Holding space means that we are willing to walk alongside another person in whatever journey they’re on without judging them, making them feel inadequate, trying to fix them, or trying to impact the outcome. When we hold space for other people, we open our hearts, offer unconditional support, and let go of judgement and control.
In doing so together, it’s important that we collectively foster a virtual online space so all who participate feels included and supported. Preserving the strength of our diverse lives and honouring our independent and collective experiences rests on acknowledging all parts of who we are regardless of nationality, gender identity, ethnicity, ability, colour, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, age, family status, religion or faith.
