Make 2025 The Year You Turn Your Life Around
The trouble with putting trauma in a box
We often put our hurt, sadness, guilt or shame in a box and put a lid on it… even tie a big anchor to it and throw it out of sight!
But is it really “out of sight, out of mind”? No, it’s not… especially when something triggers all the things we’ve put in the box and it starts to shake, crack, and topple over. Suddenly, the lid falls off and all our efforts to bury the trauma goes to waste, and everything inside is unleashed! All those feelings and memories of things you didn’t deal with — that you thought you’d locked away — spill out and come back tenfold. It can be a very scary and lonely place to find yourself.
Face the past head-on and unpack those boxes
Unless we deal with past issues, they won’t go away. They simmer in our subconscious and cause chaos in our everyday lives. Our present and future gets sabotaged. And we don’t understand why. Because there’s no room for clear thinking, self worth or the possibility of feeling happy. The downward spiral begins.
A brighter future
There’s no better time than today to stop the past from holding you back. Counselling is a safe space for me to help you unpack those box’s at your own pace to gain closure and move forward with your life. We can’t change what has happened, but, we can change the way we view ourselves and our thinking.
Make this year the year you unpack those boxes. Declutter your mind and free up the space to move forward. The life you want awaits you!
