Welcome to

Emotional Courage Therapy

.

The core of my work is contacting and expressing the feelings that are locked in the body.

When the body is not open or is deadened we can’t feel and we are stuck.

Every expression of the body has meaning: the structure, the posture, the breathing, the way of moving, the look in the eyes, the tone of the voice, the amount of energy. By looking at the body we can see our story, our past and present: who we are,what we missed, what we struggle with, what we need.

Tragedy is what is dead in a man while he is alive, “it is not what happened to us as a child, the tragedy is that we cannot give or receive love now”  (J.Pierrakos).

Regaining the full capacity to feel and recovering the love locked in our hearts is the main goal of my therapeutic approach.  Physical and emotional interactions are an important part of my work and expanding the breath is the key.

Attention is paid to the big or subtle messages and to the areas of the body where the feelings are restricted. New positions, movements and expressions are encouraged, family dynamics are reenacted and new scripts are tried out.
I am totally there, I accept, I encourage I praise and I don’t leave my feelings out of the door. I focus on the energy in the room, on what the person is experiencing and on my feelings.
When we express our vulnerability to ourselves and to another human being is when we heal.

I provide a space of openess and warmth so we can affect and touch each other emotionally, like real human beings who are building a healthy relationship.

“if it is a bad relationship that makes people emotionally ill, it can only be good human relationships that can make them well again” (H. Guntrip)
