One of the most important needs of a human being is the need to be seen. When a trusting, non-judgmental relationship is formed, the client can engage in vulnerable expression of their whole self. All parts of the client are given permission to show up and have a voice. All thoughts are invited to be expressed and explored. This leaves the client fully seeing themselves, and fully seen by another.
Energy follows thought. New research has found that what we think about takes some form of energy, as well as creates neurological connections. Furthermore, these thoughts can build neurology around old, distorted beliefs such as: 'I am not worthy of success,' 'I am not safe in the world,' 'If I stop controlling things my life will self-destruct,' or 'I need to be perfect.' Eventually, and over time, a habit of thinking is created. The body does not know if this habit is helpful or destructive. It just simply believes the habit of thinking to be truth.
Thoughts such as these also have a tendency to create and feed into overwhelming emotions. While all emotions are valued at Become Counseling Center, some have begun to run our lives. These overwhelming emotions often result in addiction, over-working, inability to relax, anxiety and physical illness.
The aim of Become Counseling Center is to empower the client to create new, more rational and productive thoughts, and to learn to use emotions as information about our world instead of being absorbed by them. Managing our thoughts truly can create a new reality, and restore us to balance and health.
