My experience (in working on myself and with clients) is that by working holistically with our body and mind, we can embark on a journey, better equipped to cope with life's challenges and experience more of the joys. It takes work, especially in the beginning as you learn new things, but with that I hope to make your experience of therapeutic coaching feel like a worthy investment in you.
I came to Therapeutic coaching, when suffering with chronic lower backpain and sciatica. To my friends, colleagues and family, it appeared that I was thriving and having a full and adventurous life. However, I was struggling and pushing the pain aside to the point where I was hospitalised.
With my natural curiosity and scientific training I immersed myself in the current neuroscience, integrative medicine and holistic approaches and started TC therapy.
What I learnt was that by being constantly 'on the go', I had ignored my emotions, protecting myself from what was unprocessed and overwhelming grief that was in my body. This had resulted in my nervous system creating chronic pain.
Two books that helped me understand what was going on in me were, 'Healing Back Pain', by Dr John E Sarno and 'The Body Keeps the Score' by Bessel van der Kolk. Further research then led me to Therapeutic Coaching, where I was the client and now a practitioner.
