A young and successful woman came to see me. She was already on her professional path and she was happily married. She had many friends and a full and busy life. I said to her, “Your life sounds so good. You’ve achieved so many things. Tell me, what’s on your mind?” “I have a problem with talking about my feelings,” she said. “I can’t find the words.” She had grown up in a ‘go, go, go’ household. Neither parent had the time or attention for listening to her feelings. She learned that the best way to live was to ‘go, go, go.’ But she didn’t fully like this. She noticed that there were times that something bothered her...
either at home or at work and she could not talk about it. Somehow, with me, she felt safe. She could tell me how she felt. We traced some of the inhibition to some early childhood experiences where she had been shut-down. In retracing those experiences, some of the controlled feelings from the past were released and
she began to feel much freer to express herself. She said that she felt a little relieved, a little more relaxed, a little more at ease with herself and better able to find the words she needed to express herself. When she said that, I had a tremendous feeling of satisfaction. I was helping her to grow in the ways she wanted.

I use talk therapy. I listen carefully, listening for pauses and things unsaid. I help people to explore the connections between current-day problems and past situations. Processing the past brings healing, confidence and the ability to handle present-day problems more easily and with a clearer mind.
