“Our scars can destroy us, even after the physical wounds healed. But if we can survive them, they can even transform us. They can give us the power to endure and the strength to fight” - Batman, 2021. After you've experienced trauma you live in a different universe, you see the world differently. Only what you feel is real. Traumatized minds are directed by emotions and misinterpret logic. I work best with those who are highly imaginative, creative, and ready to confront their past.
I want to know your world and see how you view yourself in it. I want to help you find a healthier alternative worldview and integrate the various identities. We will work towards identifying what events shaped various alters. I’ll guide you through your memories and help you face your fears. The darkness will never leave completely, but it recedes.
Let's look at how you survived this. Let's identify the thought patterns and emotions that originally served a survival purpose but are now working against you. You may have needed it at one time in your life but we can work together to separate the past from the present and future.
