Are you distrustful, fearful and overwhelmed by your own emotions and sensations? Do you wish you could eliminate them? Issues arising from trauma or early attachment may manifest in a number of ways including painful thoughts and memories, anxiety, depression, rage, physical pain and sensations (including unexplained physical symptoms, CFS, fibromyalgia and low energy). By viewing our thoughts, sensations, feelings and behaviours not as symptoms, but as 'parts' of us which are attempting to cope with life, we can learn about, and work with them in a compassionate and non-pathologising way.
We can then help those 'parts' of us that got hurt some time back in our life, and have remained frozen in that time. Working together, we can heal and retrieve those hurt parts, freeing them up from the burdens they carry. Once 'parts' are liberated, they release energy back into our system, allowing us to focus on living the life we choose.
Asking for help and committing to therapy can feel like a big leap. It can be helpful to acknowledge that you’ve already had to draw on your courage and resources - resources that, like everyone, you possess inherently. If you feel like you might like to work with me, get in touch and we can chat about how I might be able to help you.
