Were you raised in a dysfunctional, unstable or unsafe family environment?
Many of our clients tell us that their inner child now feels insecure, vulnerable, and on emotional ‘high alert’ because of traumatic childhood experiences.
Their adult self understands this is an unhealthy way of perceiving the world around them. However, their inner child still craves safety and protection, which negatively impacts their life choices, relationships and their ability to flourish and grow.
