Are issues arising that are interfering with your life. "Burnout being one." Our coping skills seek an outlet for stress. Are these coping methods working for you? If not, another approach may be useful. Discussing in a non-judgmental and safe environment can reframe situations. Mindfulness, effective interpersonal relationships, distress tolerance and emotional regulation skills form part of the process. Together we work on awareness, feelings and actions. (What matters to you, who do you care about, what do you enjoy doing). Self, family, work and lifestyle issues are part of what can become stressors.
" Psychological and Physical THERAPY is not what I practice. This is the domain of registered HPCSA practitioners."
Relationships can be fragile. Your personal values may be undermined by daily external factors. Your needs may be neglected. Working together on mindfully meeting these challenges. Seeking a solution to building your inner strength, freedom and resilience. All the best David.
