Many people have experienced situations in their childhood that they are unable to let go of. Some of these experiences can be:  

• Parental fighting

• Domestic violence

• Bullying

• Sexual abuse

• Death of a loved one

• Parents divorce

Sometimes these experiences can be buried deep in their unconscious but can arise at certain junctures if life, caused by triggers such as a voice, a song, a photo or a myriad of others stimuli. When these experiences raise their head it can have devastating affects emotionally and physically.

Sometimes our minds can torment us with the memories of what happened when we were children and we find ourselves at the mercy of these memories and the constant pain they induce. Some people find it very difficult to let go of these memories and they can affect the way life is experienced as adults, perhaps seeing things not as they really are but as they were. In other words we can project our unresolved childhood experiences onto our present day experiences which can cause arguments, anxiety, depression, addictions and many other detrimental affects on our life.

Counselling can offer a safe and supportive environment to gently explore what these issues are and where they came from. By exploring these issues and their origin we can potentially put them to rest or at least look upon them with fresh adult eyes so they no longer cause the emotional turmoil they once did.
