The shift is here.
Moving forward in life, in psychotherapy, is no longer focused on what’s wrong, what’s bad, orienting only to the diseases and disorders.
We're at a choice point.
Life is inviting us to become aware of the painful aspects of our lives, welcoming them as guides while orienting instead toward what’s nourishing.
This isn't about bypassing the pain. Instead, it's about transforming suffering into compassion.
Psycho-spiritual healing and development builds on the enormous research breaking into new territory to benefit us all.
All while holding a different stance.
This isn’t to deny the pain that so many are in, the mental and physiological quagmires that we get stuck in.
It is instead a way to deepen into the natural native Transformational Journey of life -- flowing with the natural cycle: Rise. Crest. Fall.
What allows us to flow with that cycle happens as we enter the flow, exploring how to develop ourselves psychologically and spiritually, to face the pain and distress of our lives from a Solid, Steady, Secure place in our body, mind & heart.
The practices are ones born from the ancient wisdom traditions, adapted to our contemporary circumstances where the heart is the guide and our brain provides the navigating data.
We all want to be cherished, valued, seen, and known. We want to belong to someone, some group, some place. We need an inner place of refuge and an outer haven of like-hearted people.
The wisdom traditions and the cutting-edge psychotherapy approaches orient us to a new direction.
When horrible things happen we are offered a way through.
It's not about sinking into the muck of the pain. When we open to the pain it also, surprisingly, points us in a new direction where we can get our needs met.
If this idea intrigues you, come explore this important terrain with those of us using the traumas of our lives as a doorway to transform our suffering into compassion. It's literally a Modern Day Bodhisattva Training. We can define a Bodhisattva as someone who deliberately chooses to take the muck of their lives as fodder for transformation, making a better life for themselves and those around them.
When life is distressing we shut off the very thing that can help us move forward
Integrating attachment theory is integral
The reason our fundamental attachment needs are critical
Wrapped in the muck of our trauma is the hidden step by step path
The Transformational Journey that marks the path so you're not alone in it!
Triggers are actually our secret guidance system -- if we know how to harness their power
Deirdre Fay, MSW, works with people who have had crummy histories to develop an inner platform to get their needs met and have success in all areas of life. With over 30 years of experience as a psychotherapist and educator, Deirdre brings together modern science with ancient wisdom traditions in exploring the Transformational Journey of life which was called a radically positive approach to healing trauma.
Deirdre’s message resonates deeply with those who may look successful on the surface, but internally feel plagued by shame, anxiety, distress, and depression – wondering why they’re stuck in repeating relational and life patterns. Her third book, Becoming Safely Embodied (2021), became an Amazon best-seller before it was published and sold over 5,000 copies in its first three weeks of availability.
