Makeda's Services
Each of us brings our own history, traumas, fears, and points of view into our adult relationships. Our past experiences continue to drive our view of self, others, and the world. We carry forward unhelpful ways of communicating, behaving, and relating to others. Oftentimes, we are unaware of how we communicate our needs because sometimes, we aren't even aware of our needs. This results in self-sabotaging thoughts/behaviors and, in turn, contributing to our relationship dissatisfaction.
The biggest challenge, however, is your own resistance. You naturally want to protect yourself from pain, so you try to ignore the past and distract yourself from the inner negativity. If negative states linger despite your efforts, something else is required in order to heal.
My approach focuses on healing from past learning/programming. Anxiety, depression, personal traumas, and negative relationship cycles can be healed by understanding our experiences and adjusting how we view ourselves, others, and the world.
