Why Sour lemons?
i TOYED WITH THE NAME OF MY PRACTICE FOR A LONG TIME BEFORE FINALLY COMMITTING TO SOUR LEMONS COUNSELING. iT WAS IMPORTANT TO ME FOR IT TO EVOKE MY BRAND AND GOALS FOR SLC.
the idea of turning "lemons into lemonade" bothered me in terms of a therapeutic approach. It can feel incredibly invalidating to be told to "make do" with what you have.
I started asking myself questions like, "What if we throw the lemons out completELY?" "WHAT IF THEY'RE SPOILED BEYOND REPAIR?" "What if they're
TOO SOUR?"
THUS, SOUR LEMONS WAS BORN - WHEN LIFE'S NOT WORTH THE SQUEEZE.
