The Intricate Dance of Emotions Within Us

We share a profound, intense relationship with our emotions and these, emotions have their own intricate relationship with one another. Our interactions with emotions, and their interactions between themselves, are both complex and simple at the same time.

In many cases, these emotions manifest as anxieties that we do not want to confront, leading us to push them away and shut them out. This avoidance prevents us from truly understanding what we feel and then find solutions.The anxiety or emotion is just like a child, desperately trying to gain our attention and have its needs met. The more we push it away, the harder is pushes back , the louder the tantaram- a demonstration of the principle that Action and Reaction are Equal.

We may not want to feel certain emotions, such as guilt, disappointment or fear and this aversion can lead to anger or extreme sadness. Here, we see the relationship between emotions play out. Guilt emerges and anger counters it. The person rejects guilt and anger stands alongside the individual, two against one. When guilt, which is a part of us and like a child need nurturing, love, understanding, holding, acknowledgment and acceptance, finds itself cornered and attacked, it may seek solace elsewhere, potentially leading to unhealthy addictions or dysfunctional life patterns.

We can delve deeper into the intricate web of emotions, but the core idea is that just as humans are energetic beings, emotions are energies with their own feelings attached. Humans feels sadness and guilt can feel sadness too. This small effort to understand our inner and outer worlds highlights the profound connections between our emotions and ourselves.

It is a delicate dance, one that requires us to embrace, understand their needs and find healthy ways to address them. Only by acknowledging, nurturing and accepting our emotions can we hope to achieve balance and find true solutions to the challenge they present. Remember no emotion is negative all are a part of us. SELF love is a Key to a better place to be.

Important:

A free consultation is not a substitute for psychotherapy.

In a free consultation, the psychologist cannot give you a final diagnosis or prescribe treatment.

The purpose of a free consultation is to help you determine if a psychologist and psychotherapy are right for you, and to give you the first steps to solving your problem.

Potential benefits of a free initial consultation

During this first session: potential clients have the chance to learn more about you and your approach before agreeing to work together.

Offering a free consultation will help you build trust with the client. It shows them that you want to give them a chance to make sure you are the right person to help them before they move forward. Additionally, you should also be confident that you can support your clients and that the client has problems that you can help them cope with. Also, you can avoid any ethical difficult situations about charging a client for a session in which you choose not to proceed based on fit.

We've found that people are more likely to proceed with therapy after a free consultation, as it lowers the barrier to starting the process. Many people starting therapy are apprehensive about the unknown, even if they've had sessions before. Our culture associates a "risk-free" mindset with free offers, helping people feel more comfortable during the initial conversation with a specialist.

It's important to note that the initial consultation differs from a typical therapy session:

It can last from 15 to 30 minutes, with the specialist determining the appropriate length for this introductory meeting.

The free initial consultation is not intended to be a full therapy session. It is an opportunity for the client to learn more about the specialist and their approach to therapy, and to decide whether they want to work together.

The specialist should set clear boundaries for the free initial consultation, including the length of the session and the topics that can be discussed.

The specialist should be prepared to answer questions from the client about their experience, training, and qualifications.

The specialist should not give specific advice or recommendations during the free initial consultation. This should be done during a paid session.
