Why Does Counseling Get Worse Before It Gets Better?
from ReStory Podcast Hosted by Chris Bruno and Tracy Johnson
Sometimes the thing we most want to get rid of is actually pointing us toward something deeper that needs our attention. Chris and Beth explore what can happen when counseling moves beyond symptom relief and into the hidden places where shame, wounded innocence, and old survival patterns have been buried. Through the image of a cave, they talk about the younger parts of us that may have made choices that were not good, but were the best they knew how to make with what they had, and what it can look like to meet those parts with kindness instead of blame. And as they reflect on the “scarecrow” in our memories, they invite us to consider whether the places we have spent years avoiding might also be guarding something worth finding.
