what is compassionate inquiry?
Compassionate inquiry is a psychotherapeutic and somatic trauma-informed approach - an invitation into an unfolding of an experiental and relational process, that was first developed by Dr. Gabor mate. it is relational and inquiry based in that it deepens connection, authenticity, and relationship, both to others and to the self and to the nervous system, through co-regulation with the therapist and with self-inquiry guided by the client and the therapist’s attunement to the nervous system and their inner experience presenting in the shared space. in sessions we can uncover and recalibrate whatever it is that conceals or impedes a sense of freedom and true self. the outcome can be living with a greater sense of presence, trusting in intuition and experience, with a greater ease and stability and with an increased self-awareness, thereby giving rise to more agency and possibility and to a sense of embodiment and an intimacy with self and the world at large.
In addition to Compassionate Inquiry sessions I also offer yoga and bodywork sessions. Please click the links in the main navigation above centre to know more or book a free discovery call for a compassionate inquiry intro session clicking the button below.
