Patricia Thompson Consulting

Description

You want to experience heart to heart connections in all your relationships and what I've seen is the best way to get this is for you to trust and love yourself.
If you are suffering from anxiety, depression, fear, conflict in any type of relationship, stress, grief or abuse, or if your company is experiencing internal conflicts, please don't hesitate to call. MISSION: To provide a safe and comfortable environment in which you are able to relax and come to understand and connect with what you feel and what you need. To empower and facilitate an authentic connection with your inner voice that knows the truth and speaks with confidence and clarity. I have worked in the field of crisis counselling for over fifteen years. I have worked successfully with people suffering from a variety of problems such as anxiety, depression, fear, conflict in relationships and work situations, stress, grief and abuse. I offer a holistic approach to understanding and healing, taking into account the body, mind, spirit connection. To me, the counsellor role is a sacred trust, the cornerstones of which are based on respect, compassion, honesty and trust. Your healing journey is unique, and you will find the answers to your questions and dilemmas inside yourself. I will act as a guide by providing unconditional acceptance and asking questions meant to point you in the direction of your answers. I will also provide information and resources necessary to support your progress. One of the most important things you will learn is how to communicate in a non-violent manner. Most relationships fail when one or both people do not have the depth of understanding and ability to own and take full responsibility for how they feel. As a result, they will blame each other, create walls, distance, hurt feelings, resentment and resistance. This scenario is at epidemic proportions in our society, and it is the root cause of marital conflict, friendships and dysfunctional, toxic work environments. Communicating in a non-violent manner requires that we not only value and embrace our emotions, but we must also learn how to take full responsibility for how we feel. We must practise eliminating judgement, assumption, interpretation and blaming others for how we feel. (This does not mean that others should not be held responsible for what they do.) In time we will come to understand that the emotion which arises naturally within us is our friend. It is there to give us information about what needs are not being met, or what needs are being met. In this society we have learned not only to judge and blame each other for how we feel, but we have also been taught that 'negative' emotions are 'bad' emotions. I am here to tell you that there are no 'bad' emotions. They simply rise up inside of us in order to inform us of when our needs are being met and when our needs are not being met, so that we can then figure out how to get our needs met. All human beings have universal needs such as the need for respect, encouragement, inclusion, security, safety, peace, trust, equality, connection, confidence, clarity and many more. Also, when we are able to process, understand and release our emotions we become freer inside to connect with our intuition which is the compass of the soul.
