Feeling Sad - it's a human thing...
Feeling sad is a human thing. It can feel like a grey cloud that won’t lift, a heaviness in your chest, or a kind of numbness that makes everything seem a bit far away. Sometimes it follows something obvious - a loss, a change, a fallout. Sometimes it creeps in for no apparent reason. Most of us feel sad from time to time, and it passes. When it hangs around and starts to shape how you think, sleep, eat, work, and relate to people, therapy can help.
Relational Therapy – using an attachment-based methodology
Relational Therapy: Healing Through Relationship
When people ask me what kind of therapy I offer, I often reply that I work relationally. It’s a simple enough phrase, but behind it lies something rich, layered, and deeply human. Relational therapy is not a method or a set of techniques—it’s an attitude, a stance. It’s a way of being with clients that places the relationship between us at the heart of the work. Because so often, it’s not just what happened to someone that causes pain—it’s how those experiences shaped their relationships with others, and with themselves.
Childhood Trauma: The Wounds We Carry
Childhood Trauma: The Wounds We Carry
**Childhood Trauma: The Wounds We Carry** Childhood trauma can leave deep, lasting scars that significantly impact our lives. These formative experiences shape our beliefs, behaviours, and emotional responses, often in profound ways that we may not fully recognise. Acknowledging and confronting this trauma is crucial for genuine healing and transformative personal growth. By bringing awareness to the wounds we carry, we empower ourselves to understand and overcome them, paving the way for a healthier, more fulfilling life. Embracing this journey is not just an act of courage; it is a powerful step toward reclaiming our narrative and embracing our potential.
Loneliness Through an Integrative Framework with a Psychodynamic Lens
Loneliness isn’t just a lack of social contact—it’s a deep emotional experience rooted in how we relate to ourselves and others. An integrative framework, especially one incorporating a psychodynamic lens, helps explain the complexity behind this experience by examining both internal conflicts and external circumstances. Rather than seeing loneliness as a symptom to be eliminated, psychodynamic theory views it as a signal pointing to unresolved developmental and relational issues.
