A good psychotherapist could of course provide the environment, support, guidance and relationship to help you find your way through this stuff This is how I found my way. Back in 1992 I, ran my own business, my first child was 2 years old, had a wonderful partner and was financially secure. Just after my child was born I suddenly has access to my childhood years which had been out of my awareness (dissociation). Vivid dreams and memories terrorised me through every waking and sleeping hour of the trauma I experienced as a child. My friends had always talked about their childhoods, holidays, school friends, memories but for me it was like I did not remember anything of my childhood. The pressures of life took their toll and overcame me. I became clinically depressed and abandoned my life, partner and child and moved into a squat. I spent the next year just wasting away. I then found my way into psychotherapy for the first time and over the next 3 years changed my life. After 3 years of Transactional Analysis I told my therapist that I wanted to do what she was doing. I began my training a therapist and have never looked back. There is nothing that is written that says life is easy, its just that we need a new set of tools at different times and different developmental stages throughout life.
