Sometimes, five focused sessions are enough to create lasting change
The Breakthrough Programme is based on the idea that not everyone is ready for, or looking for, a long-term therapeutic process. A shorter, focused programme drawing on the Psychosynthesis approach and its techniques can still create meaningful change.
The programme consists of five 1:1 counselling sessions held online. Rather than an open-ended therapeutic process, it provides a clear structure, a container with plenty of freedom within it.
Each session has a specific focus and introduces different techniques. Between sessions, you will be invited to continue the work in your own time, reflecting on what emerges and bringing it into the following session. You will receive simple forms to support these reflections, alongside Psychosynthesis concepts that can help you make sense of your experience and develop your own understanding.
We will also use imagination techniques from Psychosynthesis in a planned and guided way, helping you access insights that may not emerge through talking alone.
This can be a complete piece of work in itself. Or, through the process, you may discover that you would benefit from a deeper therapeutic exploration. In this sense, the programme can also be an opportunity to experience the Psychosynthesis approach and see whether it feels right for you before committing to a longer, open-ended process.
The Journey
Session 1 Your personal history
In the first session, I will guide you through an exploration of your life history. Together, we will identify and map the key unconscious patterns and critical parts that may be shaping your current situation.
Session 2 Meet you subpersonalities
We will go deeper by exploring the different parts of yourself and bringing them into dialogue, with particular attention to critical inner parts. We will draw on Psychosynthesis techniques such as subpersonalities and chair work to understand these parts and their role in your life.
Session 3 Insight in your life now
We tap into the unconscious through imagination, using a guided imagery exercise to uncover deeper insight into your current life situation.
Session 4 Insight into your future life
We will dive deeper into imagination, this time exploring your potential future through the Psychosynthesis technique of the Ideal Model.
Session 5 The plan
We will turn the insight you have gained into a concrete plan of action, giving you clear steps to move forward.
