"Lynn" is a friend of mine that has had a hard time finding a good therapist. In this interview, we talk about what therapy is, how it can help, why she might have had bad therapy experiences and we do some exploration of her trauam which began with bullying at the age of 5.
As I provided a safe emotional space for her to tell her story by listening, repeating back what I heard, validating her feelings and just exploring her perspective, she was able to move into some deep emotions with her child parts.
Where ever you are in your healing, I encourage you to be kind to yourself, treat yourself with compassion and be curious about what your feeling. Compassion is the key to healing.

Blessings for a healing day.
