“I would be honoured to accompany you, in your healing journey, using Compassionate Inquiry®, being by your side, providing safety and support while you connect to your body and feel.
You can free yourself from old beliefs and behavioural patterns, that are keeping you stuck and are preventing you from enjoying and achieving your full authentic potential.
I will invite you to pay attention to what is present for you, emotionally and in your body, at the present moment.
The goal is to connect the dots, between past and present and put actions in place to meet all your inner child needs, from the wisdom of your authentic self.
Every single emotion you may feel is welcomed.
You can be authentic and vulnerable, in this non judgemental space.
This is your own journey, towards authenticity and wholeness, where I am just a witness.
You set the pace and the intention, for each session. Each session is a step forward, towards your true self.
The intention is to unveil, with playfulness and curiosity, the root causes of the patterns, that are negatively affecting your life.
You can find your own personal truth and well being, through presence, acceptance, safety, safe attachment building, re parenting yourself and finding health and balance at all levels.”

Unlocking your life´s full potential is in your hands
I am a practitioner trained by Gabor Maté.
I can help you find the causes of your suffering and self-destructive cycles.
You may reconnect to yourself, release trauma from your body, overcome addictions, improve your health, self esteem and relationships and take response-ability: responding instead of reacting, getting to know, accepting and taking care of your needs.

Because you deserve to live fully
"Compassionate Inquiry a therapy for trauma recovery.
Trauma is a big word. Nevertheless, you don't need to experience a big "T" trauma to carry a scars.
Trauma is what remains in our bodys and our subconscious, not the event itself.
The more sensitive and the younger we are and the faster the event happens, the more overwhelming it is and the more it affect us.
Trauma can even occur by the absence of something important that was not present or was not provided during childhood.
I have hope for the future, but so far, I have never met anyone in my life who has not experienced any kind of trauma.
Every single one of us has suffered, in a different degree, and has had to adapt accordingly, after a trauma imprint.
That adaptation is always a protection.
And It is adaptive at first, but maladaptive after.
In childhood, we choose attachment over authenticity without even realising it. And that is when we start losing ourselves.
Whether we accept it or not, we can all improve if we work on ourselves as we all have suffered and adapted.
There is a difference in the size of the trauma and the size of the impact.
But the biggest difference is between those of us aware of our trauma and working on it and those who are not aware or do not want to be aware of it, who keep living in a survival and automatic mode. Their choice affects all of us around them and our planet.
Now as adults, we have the possibility to take response- ability and can compassionately welcome our authenticity back, to make our lives happier and the world a better place." Blanca Urquijo
