Family of Origin Issues

Description du service

Our early family experiences shape how we see ourselves, relate to others, and navigate the world. Unresolved issues from your family of origin—such as neglect, abuse, control, emotional distance, or conflict—can deeply influence your adult life, especially your relationships, self-esteem, and emotional responses. Bringing unaddressed family dynamics into adult relationships—particularly romantic ones—can create confusion, tension, and emotional disconnect. For example, someone who witnessed or experienced parental divorce may work hard to avoid relationship failure, yet still struggle with trust, emotional closeness, or communication, unknowingly repeating patterns learned in childhood. To truly understand your current behaviours, it’s often necessary to explore where they began. Family of Origin Counselling provides a safe, supportive space to: • Identify and process early relational wounds • Identify unconscious patterns or beliefs carried from the past • Heal emotional wounds linked to family roles, expectations, or attachment styles • Set healthy boundaries and build new, empowering ways of relating to others • Understand how past dynamics shape present behaviours • Break generational cycles and set healthy boundaries • Build self-awareness and emotional resilience • Improve relationships through deeper self-understanding This process can lead to powerful change, helping you heal from the past and build healthier relationships. It offers the opportunity to gain clarity and begin the journey toward a more grounded and fulfilling life with confidence. You are not defined by your past—but by how you choose to grow from it.
