What happens in therapeutic rooms?

Begin enquiry
Together we will create brave space.Because there is no such thing as a “safe space”—We exist in the real world.We all carry scars and we have all causedwounds.In this spaceWe seek to turn down the volume of the outsideworld,We amplify voices that fight to be heardelsewhere,We call each other to more truth and love.We have the right to start somewhere andcontinue to grow.We have the responsibility to examine what wethink we know.We will not be perfect.This space will not be perfect.It will not always be what we wish it to be.ButIt will be our brave space together,andWe will work on it side by side.

Our Philosophy

Intentionally created Transitional Spaces

The In-Between Space draws from psychoanalytic thinking; in particular, it is informed by Jessica Benjamin’s conceptualization of the analytic third and Winnicott’s idea of transitional space, drawing attention to the fact that both people are participating in and being shaped by what happens between them. These spaces emerge not entirely within one person nor entirely within another, but through the encounter between them.

Mutual Recognition

The In-Between Space intends to facilitate a space for mutual recognition, where it becomes possible to remain connected to another person’s mind while recognizing their separateness and difference.

Witnessing and working with Uncertainty

A space where we witness one another without necessarily collapsing our differences and realities, resolve uncertainty, or relying on ready-made fixes and interpretations.

Curiosity towards pain and possibilities

A space of mental health care work deeply infused with play: the possibility of being and remaining curious, experimental, creative, and uncertain despite pain and conflicts without everything having to become immediately fixed, conceptualized, or instrumentalized.

A space that holds pain and possibilities, where ruptures and imaginations are also handled with care.
