Resource Conversation
Clarity at the junctions of life
At the crossroads of life, people often have the keys to solutions in their own hands, but it’s sometimes hard to notice them on your own. Or your hunch feels uncertain.
In a confusing life situation, a conversation partner helps you to see what is happening in your life. Relationships, patterns of working life, your own internal process of changing values or needs, a new life situation - events can be so close that you are not able to grasp what all seems to have pulled life into a knot and made you feel awkward.
Sometimes the pursuit of a life that feels like yours can seem impossible. Mind is weighed down by what others say, and you don’t believe enough to yourself. The idea just feels so good, but it's hard to figure out how to make it come true.
We all have our own premonitions and views about what is happening in our lives. We often intuitively understand situations much deeper than our conscious mind can think. Sometimes the conscious mind doesn't really want to accept what the intuitive mind and our body already know.
One's own thinking cannot be seen or heard in the same way as the listener structures it. That's why the answers to the junctions and intersections of your life can be found in you. The listener helps you hear yourself and notice what you actually already know or wish for. Sometimes with a listener it is easier to face what is difficult to accept alone.
The listener will help you put together the puzzle of your life in an easier way to understand, so that you yourself will start to see what is happening in your life. After that, it's easier to think about how you want to proceed with the situation. Sometimes you just need listener, new perspectives and information about the possibilities for the whole knot to open up.
Help on the way to a better time
Sometimes the light disappears from life. It's just a flat greyness, almost a desert - or an impenetrable mess that you can't get hold of. You feel depressed, it's hard to concentrate or life just doesn't seem meaningful.
It can be hard to say what led to this or why life started to feel this way? Or when did the gray even come? It could have been going on for a very long time, or long enough that it's time to think about what could be done about the situation.
It's easier for the listener to hear what you can't see. To help you catch the clues that lead you to the answers. Towards a new beginning.
For others, it is quite clear at which point in life the joy disappeared and something difficult happened. Would you dare to discuss that point and its consequences? To think about how it would be wise to start looking for a path towards brighter times?
As life gets wrapped up in heavy burdens, one's attention span also decreases. The strength goes into surviving the gray everyday life, and the mind can't rise higher to think about new options. You may not even have information about all the options that could help your situation or how to proceed. Or the difficult situation has consumed the strength to think about the order in which to approach the available options.
With a peer support discussion, resources and solutions are available
Peer support discussion does not aim to untie the knots of emotional life with a therapeutic approach. They are met with compassion for sure. The purpose is to help you think about how what happened has affected your life and what could be done about it all. The purpose is to help you see the way forward and towards a more balanced time. The purpose is to help you find clarity and resources within yourself and to help you see alternatives on how to proceed in the situation.
I'll help you notice the keys in your hand. By listening, asking questions, and offering you perspectives and clarity on your situation.
I will help you identify the things affecting your situation, to name them, in what way they may be connected to each other, and what steps you could take to move forward with your situation.
I will also help you identify what kind of services, forms of support, therapy or treatment you may need in your situation in order to reach a safe balance.
For others, one conversation opens the view to a new landscape or at least to the path to it. With others, we meet several times to clarify the situation.
