WHAT IS INDIVIDUATION?
As human beings, we have a primary core conflict between attachment and authenticity. As children, our priority was to remain attached to our caregivers, which means most of us have authentic aspects of ourselves in our shadow that have never been known or expressed.

Unconsciously (usually from a wounded place inside), you might be ruled by rigid expectations about how things should go. Yet, seeking control over other people and your environment is a form of anxiety.

Depth therapy is a collaboration between the therapist and client, and it requires first and foremost that you are at the stage of your emotional healing journey where you are willing to honestly self-reflect. Depth therapy involves listening deeply to your feelings, thoughts, behaviours and body sensations to gain insight into how you might be unconsciously participating in the challenges in your life.

Free association starts with the encouragement to spontaneously say whatever pops into your mind. It does not need to be a linear thought stream, just a voicing of what you intuitively want to say next.

History Of Free Association Psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud encouraged his clients to say whatever came into their heads without inhibition. According to Freud, most thoughts, behaviours and actions are determined by your subconscious inner processes, which typically form during childhood. Freud develop...

Wounded Inner Child and pain must be heard first, and then soothed with antidotal affirmations. If you feel unloved in certain aspects of yourself, then you can affirm, "I am so loved," until your body deeply believes it.

Your inner child is your most authentic self. Perhaps you can remember moments when you were a child - when you were open and loving, free to simply express your truth. Your authentic Inner Child is your deepest feeling self, and it is the closest to your original soul essence. Your Inner Child live...

It is easy to become trapped in negativity. Because our brains and nervous systems are wired for survival, our default emotion is fear. Fearful thoughts, repeated over time become deeply patterned into our neurology.

A negativity bias is the notion that even when of equal intensity, things of a more negative nature (e.g. unpleasant thoughts, emotions, or social interactions; harmful/traumatic events) have a greater effect on your psychological state and processes than neutral or positive things. In other words,....

Focusing is a path of self-inquiry that welcomes nuanced experiences that we often overlook. We gently bring awareness into our bodies, which is where feelings and sensations reside. We allow and befriend whatever we are experiencing in a way that permits the stuck places to loosen …moving us toward greater peace, freedom, and wisdom.
