I wanted to give you a warm welcome and acknowledge your effort in taking this first step.
It is not easy to start therapy; overcoming any fear you may feel, where to search, which therapist to choose…
I would like to invite you to stop for a moment.
Close your eyes slowly.
Take a deep breath.
How do you feel? Where in your body do you feel it?
Sometimes life presents us with difficulties that can leave our world upside down. We can end up feeling anxious, depressed, angry, frustrated… Sometimes we just experience a lack of meaning and can’t connect with the life force that makes us feel alive.
My practice is Core Process Psychotherapy, a mindfulness based approach that slowly helps you to get in touch with your body. In our sessions I will bring awareness to your body by asking you what you feel and where you feel it. With this practice you will get used to checking that yourself. What body sensations some people or dynamics make you feel; it could be tension in your back, feeling out of breath, not being able to speak when you want to, feeling paralysed… by exploring those body sensations you will learn to process feelings in your body instead of going in circles in your head.
And together we will find ways to release that energy that gets stuck in your body and process whatever needs to be processed.
