Free Your Mind Therapy - Thought Leaders in this space!

You are sick and tired of being sick and tired, right?

We all have said these exact words at some time in our lives. "I'm just sick and tired of being sick and tired!" but let me tell you, that when you get to this point, you are ready to level up! No matter what situation has led you to this point - get ready because you are on the precipice, my friend. 

This is your fork in the road moment. Are you going to keep complaining about being sick and tired or are you going to literally change your life, level up and go on a healing journey that will literally change you for the better?

We know this fork in the road moment as our practitioners have been there, said yes to the question and decided to do something about it! 

If you choose to stop being 'sick and tired',  it means you are on the precipice of something great. 

Allow us to help you on that journey with our knowledge and expertise in the areas of adrenal fatigue, burnout, trauma based intervention on a physical and emotional level.

There are psychological and physiological reasons for depression, anxiety, bad moods, lethargy and stress responses. 

We know that our mind and body connection are not compartmentalised, and work with you so that both work in balance to heal and to create dis-ease. 

We will give you strategies to put in place that are not only psychological and psychosocial but we work with allied health partners to address the physiological for maximum results. 

We also use evidence-based, neuro- linguistic techniques to help you heal from the psychological impact of trauma, including PTSD, anxiety, and depression. We provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your experiences and develop strategies to move forward.

Grief can come in many forms. Traditionally people would be recommended to see a grief counsellor only upon the death of a loved one. 

Grief, however, can be experienced for many different reasons. People who are diagnosed with autoimmune or other debilitating conditions can grieve the person they were.

People grieve loss of relationships, be it a romantic separation or the cut off of a family member or long term friendship. 

In our modern society, people use social media as a weapon, cutting people off from their lives and people can grieve the loss of online communities. 

In a world where transitioning from one gender to another, we have family systems who are adjusting to a literal physical and psychosocial change. 

Narcissistic abuse can cause grief and loss of a relationship that was an illusion. 

Grief is a very real and valid emotion for lots of situations and here at Free Your Mind Therapy, we have helped many clients through the grieving process, a very important process to go through in order to become free. 

If this sounds like you, be kind to yourself and reach out if you feel like you would like to shift from the grief state. 

Here at Free Your Mind Therapy, we are the leaders in helping to navigate the effects of Cultural Conditioning on your life. 

What is cultural conditioning? It is the residual and often quite damaging effects of the conditioning you have experienced growing up that can keep you in a rut, trauma bonded to toxic family members or family systems. 

We work with many, many clients who come to us with childhood trauma (as lots of people have), however for some their specific cultural norms play a huge role in specific trauma reactions that can go completely unacknowledged or not taken into consideration in traditional therapy. We have found that once these are acknowledged and strategies put in place to heal, our clients feel the freedom that comes from letting go of toxic belief systems and behaviours. 

Cultural Conditioning can be things like:

• cultural superstitions, 
• place in the family system (if you are the wife, husband, child, birth place, if you are adopted, birth order), 
• gender, 
• propensity to question or conform, 
• norms specific to that culture or family system that condone abuse and mask it as discipline, 
• modelling unhealthy parental relationships, 
• dysfunctional communication,
• extreme parenting (black/white thinking, arranged or forced marriages, honour based punishments or rules),
• physical abuse or mental torture,
• narcissistic parents/siblings,
• justification cycle,
• secret keeping,
• living with unpredictable consequences for actions.

these are just some of the cultural conditioning that can all play a huge role in shaping people's lives, keeping them making decisions that are best for a toxic family system rather than living their best life for themselves. 

This is especially pertinent for those that are children of parents who migrated to another country and are living in a family system that does not reflect the cultural norms of the country of origin of the child. 

We are experts in dealing with issues that arise from cultural conditioning and the leaders in this space. We have worked with many, many people who have experienced depression, toxic shame, toxic guilt, community isolation and trauma as a direct result of this. 

If you feel like you are struggling in a family system that keeps you feeling less than, please book with us and you will find a respectful pathway to freeing yourself from the chains of those trauma bonds. 

Our sessions are intentional. You set specific goals so that you gain the knowledge and resources you need to heal faster and feel better & take full control of your life.

We treat you in a holistic way, so that your mind becomes healthy and in sync with your body. We help you to create the neural pathways that will help free you from trauma bonds, unhealthy attachments, subconscious patterns and grief. 

You get the option of longer sessions in one sitting, so that you actually get the time you need to process trauma and move through it, rather than sitting week after week with uncontained trauma energy until your next session. 

We have worked out a system that truly works, so you don't have to be in therapy for years on end but really letting go of negative and low frequency emotion and replacing it with concrete doable strategies that will work long term, regardless of what comes your way.
