Use this extraordinary time to heal your relationships
Relationships are at the heart of life. They are where we experience our highest joy as well as our deepest pain. Relationships offer us a mirror in which we see the places where we are still stuck; but they also reveal in us a depth of love of which we never imagined we were capable.
Choose Again teaches a powerful approach to healing in all relationships, whether personal or professional. Our therapeutic approach empowers our students and clients to transform dysfunctional patterns, and experience love again.
“In This Together” is one of our most comprehensive at-home healing programs, designed to help you to realise the true purpose and potential of all your relationships, including, of course, with yourself.
Whether you’re single, married, living with adult children or aging parents, or particularly entangled with co-workers - we invite you to embark on a once-in-a-lifetime therapeutic journey. This month-long online retreat is uniquely fitting for this specific moment in time, in which many of us find ourselves in what can only be described as domestic pressure cookers, whether we are living alone or with others.
Over the course of the four weeks, you will receive an unprecedented level of therapeutic support with daily access to Choose Again counsellors and a safe, supportive community present in your own home.

We will help you move forward.
You will be guided by professional therapists to uncover and explore the hidden aspects of your mind which keep you feeling stuck in familiar and painful patterns.
You will come to recognise your inherent inner power - the capacity to forgive, to release the anger, frustration, guilt, and pain you may be experiencing on a daily basis.
You will learn how to shed projections, misperceptions, old resentments, and grudges; and those painful and unnecessary patterns of blame, disappointment, avoidance, and betrayal.
As you journey on, you will begin to experience the effects of your new found capacities- whether at home, at work, or with long-distance relatives. You will be surprised by your growing courage to “show up” more authentically and lovingly in all relationships.
By the end of this journey, you will have opened in yourself a greater capacity to experience love and joy, both in yourself and with others. You will come to recognise and embrace the truly miraculous potential of all your relationships, even, and perhaps especially, those you currently consider the most difficult.

Why heal with Choose Again?
Choose Again teaches a proven way to heal - really heal – anxiety, depression, addictive behaviour, dysfunctional relationships and other forms of psychological suffering.
If you are experiencing anything less than peace in your life then know that you have the power to change your experience. Right now you may not be able to change your external circumstances. But how you experience this moment - whether it feels peaceful or filled with a sense of conflict - is totally up to you.
The quality of your present experience is not determined by your external situation. What matters is not the situation in and of itself, but how you judge and interpret the situation. Every situation can be seen differently. Every situation can be experienced in a state of inner peace. You have a choice.
At a very young age you began to see life in a certain way. As a child you made up a self-image, an idea of yourself. Every judgments and interpretation you made since that time has been determined by this self-made idea. The interpretation of every moment is entirely dictated by the beliefs you made up about yourself in the past.
If you don't like how you feel and want to change your experience now, then you must recognize that the real cause of how you feel is not outside of you, but inside of you. The real cause of your experience is not the external circumstance but the self-image you made up when you were very young.
The good news is that you can release yourself from this old and painful self image. You can recognize that you are much more than what you have believed yourself to be.
Once you release the past, a natural experience of happiness and peace will follow effortlessly.
It's never too late to choose again.

About Choose Again Founder Diederik Wolsak RPC, MPCP
Diederik is the founder and program director of Choose Again. Diederik’s journey started in 1942 on the island of Java, Indonesia. He spent the first three years of his life in Japanese concentration camps. Many of his core beliefs were developed during that early, potentially traumatic phase. At age 8 he was sent to a foster home in Holland and by the time he rejoined his parents and brothers two years later he was filled with self-hatred and fear of the world around him. This self-hatred, fear and guilt translated into prolonged alcohol and drug abuse till finally at age 50 he reached that point where he realized that there had to be a better way or there would be no point in continuing. While his self-hatred drove him to be a successful businessman and international athlete, it allowed him little joy.
Following the fork in the road where something had to change, Diederik entered upon a spiritual path of deep healing. This path eventually led to a fulfilling career as counsellor in private practice. He is a masterful therapist. Every client recognizes immediately that they are being trained to become independent of their counsellor, that they are worthy of respect and that they have their own answers. Diederik is there to assist in finding and removing all blocks to happiness and peace in a most gentle and loving way. Clients also sense that Diederik has been in many of the dark places they see in themselves; he has personal knowledge of deep depression and substance abuse. He has personal experience of what they are going through and has largely transformed his life. However, he will be the first to tell you: “I am a work in progress.”
Diederik is the founder and program director of the Choose Again Attitudinal Healing Centre. He is the lead facilitator of both the Vancouver and Costa Rica arms of the organization. He is an international workshop leader, public speaker and relationship counsellor with years of experience in group facilitation.
