Compassionate Inquiry
What is Compassionate Inquiry?
“The purpose of the Compassionate Inquiry® system is to drill down to the core stories people tell themselves – to get them to see what story they are telling themselves unconsciously; what those beliefs are, where they came from; and guide them to the possibility of letting go of those stories, or letting go of the hold those stories have on them …
That’s what the Compassionate Inquiry® system is.”
~ Dr. Gabor Mate
The Compassionate Inquiry® approach supports you in developing an authentic relationship with yourself. In Compassionate Inquiry®, it is believed that the primary source of suffering is our disconnection from the deepest parts of ourselves. This disconnection from self is rooted in our childhood experiences as well as in intergenerational trauma. With Compassionate Inquiry® you will explore what you are feeling and sensing in the present moment, and this is where the healing begins. From this place you will gently and compassionately restore and revitalise that connection with your inner being.
My Role
I will ask you compassionate questions, always with curiosity and without judgement, as I mirror your experience, allowing you to see yourself clearly, and with me always by your side. We will look into each situation and your response to it, so that you can understand the underlying unconscious dynamics and where they come from.
Your Precious Place
This process of unravelling the layers that are protecting your precious self is where the healing takes place. I will support you as you discover this precious self, what you feel and how you see the world, from a place of compassion and acceptance. From this precious place within you, you can experience a greater sense of freedom, joy and peace and learn to thrive as the person you were meant to be.
I look forward to supporting you on this path.
