August | Let’s Really Be Here Now: The Power of Presence

Presence is the greatest gift we can give ourselves. At Self Space, we believe in creating room to feel, to notice, to truly live—whether in therapy, in glimmers of joy, or in the moments of connection that remind us what it means to be human. Live fully, love openly, and take time to just be.
