How Therapy Helps
Seeking change is the first step.
Seeking help is the second; problems often accompany feeling isolated or lonely.
Therapy can help with change by;
-
Having a new relational experience; we are in this together.
-
Feeling safe to open up parts that have felt unsafe to share before.
-
Gaining insight and awareness, we all have blind spots.
-
Noticing, experiencing and being present with your emotions; creating a natural flow again.
-
Reconnecting the mind and the body.
-
Acknowledging and validating the glimmers of transformation; this is key to growth.
-
Simply allowing yourself to slow down and be really heard.

The brain has a tendency towards negative bias. This is a result of our ancestors many, many years ago needing to be ultra-alert to danger in order to survive.
