Authentic Counselling

Why do we experience recurring struggles in our relationships? And why do traumatic events, such as a physical injury, emotional threat, loss of a loved one, or other life crisis, so often awaken or amplify our sense of fear, anger, isolation, or helplessness? From our earliest years, we develop an attachment style that follows us through life, replaying in our intimate relationships, with our children, and at work. A disturbing events can deeply affect that core relational blueprint. The good news is that we can change, regardless of our early or current life experiences. As we heal and move toward Secure attachment, we become aware of triggers and patterns in our relationships. Our nervous system learns to be more regulated. Things don’t throw us off so easily. And we open our capacity to love and experience greater compassion.
