T's counselling Claimed

I do counselling for any kind of emotional illness. Run the bipolar support group. Have programs for ADHD. Couples counselling welcome. Empathy is my strong point along with confidentiality. I believe that every person is unique and has the right to happiness.

“The responses of traumatized children are often misinterpreted…Because new situations are inherently stressful, and because children who have been through trau...ma often come from homes in which chaos and unpredictability appear “normal” to them, they may respond with fear to what is actually a calm and safe situation. Attempting to take control of what they believe is the inevitable return of chaos, they appear to ” provoke” it in order to make things feel more comfortable and predictable. Thus, the “honeymoon” period in foster care will end as the child behaves defiantly and destructively in order to prompt familiar screaming and harsh discipline. Like everyone else, they feel more comfortable with what is “familiar”. As one family therapist famously put it, we tend to prefer the “certainty of misery to the misery of uncertainty”.” ― Bruce D.
