Bad Habits, Self-sabotage & Recurring Life Patterns
​
Counselling for bad habits and self-sabotage focuses on identifying the root causes of these behaviors rather than just addressing the symptoms. Therapy includes:
-
Identify Triggers: Understand the emotional, environmental, or psychological triggers that lead to these behaviors.
-
Explore Underlying Beliefs: Uncover and challenge the negative core beliefs (e.g., "I don't deserve success") that fuel self-sabotage.
-
Develop Coping Strategies: Learn healthier ways to manage stress, anxiety, and difficult emotions without resorting to old habits.
-
Build Self-Awareness: Gain a deeper understanding of personal patterns and motivations.
​
Counselling for recurring patterns is a process of exploration and change. Therapy includes:
-
Identify the Pattern: Recognize and clearly define the specific cycle of behavior, thought, or interaction that is causing distress.
-
Trace the Origins: Explore the historical roots of the pattern, often linking it back to childhood experiences or past relationships to understand why it was formed.
-
Gain Insight: Develop a deeper understanding of the motivations, fears, and beliefs that keep the pattern in place.
-
Break the Cycle: Learn and practice new behaviors and responses to consciously interrupt the pattern and create healthier, more fulfilling ways of living.
