Things I know having worked with families for nearly a decade:

🟣 Each family is unique, yet all families are human (flawed), complex and multifaceted

🟢 Therapeutic work with parents is vital, especially as trauma often runs within families

🟣 We need to collaboratively find solutions, as everyone in the family is an expert in their family

🟢 There are fluid roles, systems & structures in every family that are unspoken and unseen, yet informs how everyone acts, behaves, communicates and connects

🟣 When we help build self-awareness, empathy & connection within a family, this creates stronger bonds

🟢 We need to recognise each other's strengths, as this builds resilience within the family system.

Cinematherapy has a place for everyone, truly. With one client of mine, it also helps that we bonded over our love of horror films 😄
Movies are so so powerful!

Your value does not stem from your looks. Your sense of self, who you are, what is inside you, what you hold inside your heart and how you treat others is what is most valuable.
Love, accept, nurture and embrace yourself. Don't be so hard on yourself! 💜
