Childhood experiences play a significant role in shaping who we are as adults. Our younger years can influence our beliefs, behaviours, and even mental health in profound ways. Real Therapy and Coaching with Sophie understands the importance of addressing these childhood wounds, which is why they focus on healing the inner child for better overall mental health.

When we talk about the inner child, we are referring to the emotional part of ourselves that carries the memories and experiences of our youth. These inner child wounds can manifest in a variety of ways, such as low self-esteem, anxiety, or difficulties in forming healthy relationships. By healing and nurturing our inner child, we can begin to address these issues at their core. One of the key benefits of healing the inner child is improved mental health. When we tend to the needs of our younger selves and work through unresolved childhood traumas, we can experience a greater sense of self-compassion, self-worth, and overall well-being. This can lead to a reduction in symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. Real Therapy and Coaching offers a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their inner child wounds and begin the healing process. Through therapy sessions and personalised coaching, clients can learn to re-parent themselves, offering the care and understanding that may have been lacking in their upbringing. If you are struggling with issues that seem to stem from your past, exploring your inner child may be a valuable component of your mental health journey. By recognizing and addressing the wounds of the past, you can create a brighter and more fulfilling future for yourself. Take the first step towards healing your inner child and improving your mental health by booking a session with Sophie at Real Therapy and Coaching today. Your inner child deserves to be heard, seen, and ultimately, healed.
