Christian Therapy for Trauma and Past hurt in New York
You feel disconnected from those you care about
It is difficult for you to trust others or even yourself. You have low self-esteem or low self-confidence. You are constantly bracing yourself for the next person to hurt you or the next bad thing to happen. Vulnerability seems threatening to you, which ends up leading you to feel disconnected and not known by others.
You’re not broken, you’re hurt, and when people get hurt they need time and space to heal.
You can feel safe again
Maybe something happened that deeply impacted a sacred part of you that was never intended to be disrespected in that way, and you are left trying to find your footing again. I am sorry that happened to you, it was not fair or right.
