Understanding Compassionate Inquiry
Have you ever felt stuck, repeating patterns that don't serve you? Compassionate Inquiry, developed by Dr. Gabor Maté, is a psychotherapeutic approach that uncovers and addresses the root causes of our emotional and physical distress. It's a gentle yet powerful journey of self-discovery, helping you connect with your authentic self and release limiting beliefs. Find out how this transformative method can support your well-being.
How does Compassionate Inquiry Work
The Compassionate Inquiry® approach is a somatic-based psychotherapeutic approach. It offers to help you gain insights into your past experiences and their impact on your present, fostering healing and self-compassion.
Safety
A safe space to the explore of self, the present, and the past. Asking the right question at the right time may help you to identify the underlying, unconscious drivers of behaviour and can unlock a lifetime of suppression to open doorways to connection, expression, creativity, joy and freedom.
Disconnection and Trauma
We recognise that the primary source of suffering is our disconnection from the deepest parts of ourselves, often caused by childhood and intergenerational trauma. With the right attention, this connection can be restored.
A Clear Mirror
Through the skilled and compassionate use of questions, the Certified Compassionate Inquiry® Practitioner holds a mirror to your experience, allowing you to see yourself clearly, perhaps for the first time.
Inquiry
The intention is to inquire into each situation with compassion and non-judgement. And to be curious about your response to it, so that you can understand the underlying unconscious dynamics and their origin.
