Body-Mind Symptoms
When your body doesn’t feel like your own…
You’ve been searching for answers for what feels like forever, but every doctor you see either can’t find anything that works or treats you like it’s all in your head.
“Why can’t anyone help me?” you wonder, feeling more lost and helpless with each appointment.
Whenever you think of that painful event or person in your past, your back seizes up, leaving you confused and frustrated.
“What gives??”
You wonder what’s happening as you struggle to make sense of the connection between your emotions and your body’s intense reactions.
Migraines or dizziness plague you, and the medications only offer temporary relief. You’ve noticed they always return when you’re stressed and you’re desperate for a solution that lasts.
Maybe you’ve been given IBS or some other diagnosis, but no one seems to know why you’re having these symptoms or how to make them better.
Out of control, scared, alienated, and frustrated…
That’s how it feels when you don’t know what’s going on with your body.
The disconnection makes everything harder. It’s hard to stand up for yourself, and boundaries easily get crossed because you’re so used to being a people-pleaser.
You desperately want someone to rescue you from this turmoil, but deep down, you’re afraid to face the reality of your past, present, or future.
Don’t give up!
There IS a way to understand and heal these body-mind symptoms.
Therapy can help you connect the dots between your emotions and physical sensations, empowering you to reclaim control over your life.
Together, we can work toward a place where you no longer feel lost, helpless, or out of control.
It’s time to find clarity, strength, and the ability to live fully in your own body.
It’s NOT all in your head.
It is absolutely in your body, too.
When symptoms persist over time, the body undergoes real changes. Whether you’re dealing with a functional neurological disorder, psychogenic seizures, conversion symptoms, or body-mind symptoms, the underlying cause is the same: a dysregulated nervous system.
How did it become dysregulated? As with many things, it’s a combination of nature and nurture. You may be genetically predisposed, or you may have been in an environment that triggered these genes to express themselves.
How the heck can therapy help??
It’s a fair question. After all, none of the other interventions are working.
Thinking about going to therapy for your symptoms might feel like confirming your worst fear – “It’s all in your head” or you’re “totally screwed up.”
But that doesn’t happen here. At Prosopon Therapy, you will be met with understanding, normalization, and nonjudgment.
We take a different approach from traditional talk therapy. In fact, traditional therapy can sometimes exacerbate your symptoms rather than relieve them.
That’s why we prioritize addressing your body and symptoms first. Without doing so, we can’t effectively target the limiting beliefs and behaviors that contribute to the cycle of symptoms.
We’ll also help you find medical practitioners who can address any physical damage caused by living with these symptoms.
People with body-mind symptoms often need an interdisciplinary team to heal completely, and we’re here to help you build that support system.
You’re not alone in this.
If your body no longer feels like your own and you’re searching for answers that seem impossible to find, know that you don’t have to navigate this journey alone.
At Prosopon Therapy, we understand the deep frustration and confusion that come with living in a body that feels out of control.
Let’s connect the dots between your emotions and physical sensations so you can reclaim your life.
