What if all of the things you do that get in your own way, that keep you disconnected from others, are actually just younger parts of yourself desperately trying to protect you?
We all walk through the world carrying invisible hurts. We have parts of ourselves working constantly to protect us. Parts that push us to succeed, to meet other's expectations of us. These parts hold good intentions, however their impact can be harmful and sometimes devastating. These parts often use criticism, judgment and shame to motivate. Over time we can end up feeling disconnected, anxious and depressed.
Through the use of Internal Family Systems, somatic work, EMDR and sand tray we will connect with and care for these younger parts that are working furiously to protect you, but may be stuck in the past, and often in the dark. Together we will work to bring those wounded parts into the light. Once we get to know all of these parts and extend understanding, compassion and healing, they can work together to allow more joy, freedom and connection.
