Compassionate Conversations with Esther Kane, MSW
Compassionate Conversations is all about getting honest and real with yourself, letting go of the past, along with behaviour patterns which are no longer serving you, and growing into the person you have always wanted to become.
As a highly sensitive person (HSP) as well as being a psychotherapist specializing in highly sensitive people with almost three decades of experience, I will share the tools and tips which have helped both me and my highly sensitive clients completely transform their lives: owning their power, speaking their voice, and squeezing the juice out of life!
Please join us in these Compassionate Conversations and share with people who could also benefit.
