Holistic Counseling - Psychosynthesis

Sometimes you just need someone to talk to………. Depressed? Anxious? Confused? Problems keeping you up at night? Sometimes you just need someone to talk to.

Talking to someone that can understand this difficult time in your life might be exactly what you need. Everywhere in our existence… with our families, our health, at work, and in our communities we face countless unexpected challenges. Many of these come about suddenly and without warning, while others creep up on us slowly. We are able to move through some of these challenges with relative ease. In the case of others however we find ourselves feeling stuck. None of us are exempt from having to deal with difficulties and hurdles. All of us want to know how to deal with these challenges more effectively and efficiently in our ever changing and increasingly complex world. We can help you live a more satisfied life no matter what difficulties you encounter. Holistic Counseling invites people along an optimistic path by turning tragedy into challenge, encouraging movement forward and appreciating strengths and resources. All of this is accomplished through collaborative conversations. It is through our relationships that all things are possible.

The WORST feeling for a woman is when she tries to have a conversation with a man about his BEHAVIOR that hurts her every day, but instead of listening, he gets ANGRY and turns the situation around on her.

It’s a feeling that cuts deep, a mix of frustration, sadness, and emotional abandonment. She gathers the courage to speak up, not to argue, not to attack, but because she loves him and wants to make things better. She speaks from a place of pain and hope, hoping that maybe this time, he will really hear her, that he will understand the weight she’s been silently carrying.

But instead of leaning in, he raises his defenses. Instead of acknowledging her feelings, he deflects. He gets loud, or cold, or sarcastic. He shifts the blame onto her, twisting her concerns into accusations against her character, her tone, her timing. Suddenly, the conversation becomes about how she brought it up instead of what she brought up. And just like that, her pain gets buried under his anger and eventually, it changes who she is.

And it’s not just the argument that hurts, it’s the message underneath it all: Your feelings don’t matter. Your pain is inconvenient. Your voice is too much. That moment becomes a silent wound, another scar added to the emotional pile she’s been trying so hard to suppress for the sake of peace. But peace without understanding isn’t peace, it’s silence. It’s pretending. It’s walking on eggshells while slowly losing pieces of herself just to keep things from falling apart.

What’s worse is that after enough of these moments, she starts to question herself. “Maybe I am too sensitive.” “Maybe I should just let it go.” “Maybe it’s not a big deal.” But deep down, she knows it is. She knows what respect, empathy, and love should feel like, and this isn’t it.

When a woman reaches out to address something that hurts her, it’s a gift. It’s her saying, I still care enough to fix this. It’s a chance for connection, healing, and growth. But when that moment is met with anger or blame, it pushes her further away. Not just emotionally but spiritually. Because nothing is more damaging to a woman’s spirit, or the relationship, than constantly being made to feel wrong for wanting to be treated right.

I highly recommend this book to anyone struggling with uncertainty and change. It has transformed the way I approach obstacles and difficulties.

Pema Chodron teaches, that kind of fear-based clinging keeps us from the infinitely more satisfying experience of being fully alive.
