Being Vulnerable

The definition in the dictionary:

To be exposed to the possibility of being attacked or harmed, either physically or emotionally

Or

Of a person in need of special care, support, or protection because of age, disability, or risk of abuse or neglect.

Well no wonder people feel so afraid of opening up about their feelings to anyone with those definitions. Talk about giving people a guilty
complex condition.

But instead of being afraid let’s explore why we should be open…

To disclose how you feel is never easy due to social conditioning and the worry of over loading people with emotional woe plus judgment of
your actions.

But it is easier then you may think or feel. The choices you make here are imperative to growth and involve trust and good faith.

We try to see the good in others, some can let you down and others surprise you, but actually deep down always give people the benefit of the doubt and see things from their viewpoint as well as you own to give yourself a rounded view of the ever complicated world we live in.

Most people have good intentions but due to circumstances of survival in a competitive world sometimes let themselves down with controlling behaviour, selfishness and much more.  

We do learn who are true or trusted friends are but this can be a constant life lesson.

Versus professionals, though a counsellor and therapist are a world of good in the following instance Being anonymous gives you the opportunity to confess anonymously without being judged or labeled. By “anonymously” we mean completely anonymous. … It’s a safe place where
you can confess anything. The intent of anonymous confession is to provide healing for your heart and soul as well as to regain your lost self-esteem.

Hence why the Catholic religion with its box for penitents to confessing your sins to a priest is used by many guilty and non guilty alike.

It has its merits so for many an open ear of those blessed to help can do wonders. “The lips of wisdom are closed, except to the ears of
Understanding “—The Kybalion.”

So knowing when its appropriate to discuss matters, but do remember people are human at the end of it all not a deity of change.

To forgive people in a seemingly unforgiving world is tough but do you want the world to get better?

Well then you need to see the world from an emotional point of feeling mixed with knowing it will change by being the example you lead.

Psychotherapy

  • Past experiences and how or why they affect your present behaviours. 
  • Develop with guidance from myself the practitioner on how to cope with difficult scenarios. 
  • Learn insightful knowledge of your thinking and behaviour patterns. 
  • How to break through your trauma and emotional difficulties. 
  • Why and how to improve your relationships and communication skills.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a branch off Hypnotherapy that identifies and focuses on changing your negative or unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours.  The idea is that thoughts, feelings and our current behaviours are interrelated. The CBT therapy helps  

  • Detect negative or distorted thinking patterns that cause you distress when triggered. 
  • Develop solving skills for your problems that come up in difficult situations
  • You learn coping strategies for practical use
  • You create achievable goals with work towards them 

 

CBT is effective for conditions you suffer or feel debilitated with like anxiety, depression, PTSD, fears and phobias as it creates tools and strategies that you will use between sessions and after therapy sessions.  

It has a more structured focus on goal setting and achievement than talk therapy alone such as life coaching etc. 

Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis: I guide you into a relaxed safe space online into a mind trance state which allows suggestibility and to become more receptive to suggestions implanted within your subconscious mind.

The subconscious is 5% of the mind but controls 95% of the conscious mind. 

This in turn via the Hypnosis sessions alters your mind to the outcome of actions outside of the trance state, by reframing or reprogramming the triggers of clients with issues such as Anxiety, Motivation, Depression, Negative Thought patterns, Relationships etc. 

During my Hypnosis sessions I guide you into a trance-like state while you are always still maintaining full awareness. You always will remain in control and cannot be made to do things against your will.  

In this state you become open and aware of your thoughts, memories, regressions which then I help with guidance get reframed or reprogrammed so now you are now not triggered by issues while out of trance state in your day to day lives.
