You can know exactly why you do something and still struggle to change it.
That’s something I’ve seen time and time again with my clients.
And these five recent reviews reminded me just how important it is.
đź’› One client came because she was living in constant fight-or-flight after a traumatic experience.
đź’› One was terrified of flying.
đź’› One had struggled with hair pulling for years.
đź’› One wanted to stop va**ng.
đź’› And another was carrying years of trauma, grief, anxiety and low confidence.
Completely different reasons for coming to therapy, but underneath each problem were patterns that had become deeply established.
And knowing why isn’t always enough to change them. That’s why my approach looks beyond the obvious symptom.
We explore what’s driving the response underneath it the emotional patterns, protective mechanisms, beliefs and experiences that can continue influencing how you respond today. And when those patterns start to shift…
You can start responding differently.
đź’› One client is now flying again after around 10 years of fear.
đź’› One feels calmer and more at peace with her past.
đź’› One feels lighter and handles stress in a healthier way.
💛 One hasn’t vaped since her session.
💛 And one described feeling like she had found “a little more of myself again.”
That’s the bit I love. Because the goal isn’t simply:
“Let’s get rid of this one problem.”
It’s:
“Let’s help you create change that you can actually feel in your everyday life.”
And sometimes the biggest transformation is not what you stop doing…
It’s who you become when you no longer need those old patterns in the same way.
đź’› Calmer đź’› More confident đź’› More in control đź’› More resilient đź’› More yourself
If you’ve been stuck knowing what your problem is but not knowing how to change it… DM me RELIEF 💛
