How does psychotherapy specifically work in line with story-telling practices?

First, upon entering our office, the therapy client invites us to his or her story, but more importantly, they invite themselves into their story. How so? Well, there is much that we don’t know about ourselves. Therefore, starting on the journey of psychotherapy is like starting to write a novel for a character whose past and background aren’t yet fully discovered. A character that is always changing and growing, and who, through increased awareness by way of therapy, continues to change perspectives about self, life and world. It’s a novel with chapter outlines that are messy and full of syntax and grammatical errors, and where the resolution keeps evading us in favor of life continuing to unfold in unexpected as well as expected ways.

What is the trance of unworthiness? Other than a script that we're constantly writing for ourselves? So many times, we're letting fear take us into a subversion of ourselves. How do we let go and identify a fear? How do we detach from an outcome and still feel well and good about our present circumstances? When does action trump inaction and allowance? When radical acceptance becomes a tool for healing is when the stimuli of normal day life becomes too overwhelming for the brain to accept. We ruminate, stress and subvert the emotional challenges we are faced with. Radical acceptance is a tool we can use to feel a sense of calm presence in the moments of chaos in our lives, doesn't mean we have to radically accept there is a fire going on around us. It just means that for this moment, and every moment after, we will sit, calm the mind, listen to the body and regulate; ready to take ACTION for what will happen next. 🧘‍♀️

Uncover the Fear Within - An exploration of self-identity in the month of November.

Explore the importance of stepping into your deepest desires and exploring the confidence to uncovering the fear within.

Believing you're worthy of things can be the beginning to feeling a sense of wholeness and deliberateness about the works of your life, the labor of your love and the acceptance of the shadows that haunt you...
