Our Philosophy
The philosophy of our Counselling, Psychotherapy and Body Psychotherapy is simple and profound. We believe there is an essential link between your body, your mind, and your emotions. You you may have unresolved emotional issues which are contributing to certain conditions. Your long history of depression or anxiety may relate to emotional abandonment in the early years of your life. Maybe you were suppressed or abused as a child which explains why you have anger issues.
Perhaps you need to explore your life history and connect it to your present situation. That will enable you find the common links and discover new ways of being. We can provide you with the knowledge and tools to make certain patterns fully conscious. We can enable you let go of pent up emotions from your body and mind. You will be able to leave them in the past and create a new, grounded and positive reality.
Background To Our Philosophy
The background to our philosophy stems from the fact that your life follows certain dynamics which are a recreation of certain dynamics from your past. You may have had unusual, one-off incidents or traumas, which have shaped your present time reality and functioning in a negative way. The wounds or damage that has occurred to you on your life journey has manifested in your emotional and physical life.
Some of these may have originated in your childhood, and keep repeating in your life. As a child, your emotions (Energy in MOTION) may have been shut down and repressed by your parents. This may have caused potentially numerous body mind ailments.
You may find that aspects of your life no longer serve you, and you cannot shift the pattern or behaviour with your own efforts. The self development books and web articles you have read haven’t helped you significantly. It may be time to consider how your life could benefit from reflection, attention and discussion with an experienced psychotherapist.
As psychotherapists, we offer a partnership where there are clear boundaries and responsibilities that each of us agrees to keep. Our main objective is to foster a professional therapeutic relationship with you. As you explore your life experience in detail, you gain realisations which help dynamics to safely unravel. Your insights and understandings and the therapeutic tools we use now help you to move forward with your life.
