How we set our children up for a lifetime of anxiety.

So much joy watching the music moving in this child’s body. Nothing machanical or emotionally bypassing here. This is the level of embodiment I work with performers to achieve in our work together.

I love how this woman finds the miffle ground with her children. For some of us it isn't that easy. We feel the big emotions of fear and guilt that we felt when our feeling were ignored or even punished. Sometime we even feel the rage that was in the environment that was present when our big feelings were being expressed. And we want to shut those big feeling down either by giving our child what they want or by punishing them. At crossing the divides you get to work through those big feeling, yours and theirs and everything in the middle to land in a safe place and give your kids a safe solf place to fall with boundaries.

Working with addictions is considered to be one of the most tricky things that you can do as a therapist. The problem generally is that people are working with getting the person off the drug or trying to replace it with another drug or replacement behaviours or thoughts . This does not work with the problem it works with the symptoms.  In my practice I worked with the root cause of the problem the lack of safety, the lack of love and releasing and metabolising thr bound up trauma energy and responses that were repressed when love was taken away.

I did the foundational training of SPT last year and bringing it into play with somatic experiencing and drama therapy has been life changing for me and my clients.

Trauma is stored in your nervous system and your body. And leaning into our big feelings is something we should do in relationship. And we can do that without flooding and having to leave leave and go away. If having the opportunity to do this interest you message me and we’ll set up a time.

Feel through the emotions in a safe held container. I'll be with you all the way. Together we’ll play and gently bring back to life the parts of you, you had to put away to stay connected with your caregivers, to be safe enough to physically keep living, even if you had to put your soul on ice.
