I'm so excited to hear what everyone thinks about our forgiveness episode this week! I'm very proud of this series and so happy to see some of the feedback that we've gotten already!
Did anyone comment on this yet? I just found this and have been very interested in listening to this series on podcast. A friend who has suffered went through regression therapy and is no better (of course, she couldn't benefit from professionals like you!) The anger is still there, the depression, suicidal thoughts, etc.
So, in a case like that, would you suggest she go through it all over again with a better therapist? And, what can I do as the friend to better understand her and support her? I look forward to any advice.
Hi Carrie, I'm so sorry I didn't get back to you about your question, I'm afraid I just realized it was here. I'm so glad that you enjoyed the series on working with victims of sexual assault and I hope that it was helpful for you. I'm so sorry to hear that your friend went through hypnotherapy but it didn't do as much for her as it could have. I've done 5path with quite a few clients and it has been very helpful for them- so of course my answer is that it could help your friend if she's willing to give it another try. There are lots of variables, between techniques used by the hypnotist, their skill set and comfort level, and the client's readiness. There is hope. As for supporting her, I think you're doing a great job just based on your questions and your search for help.
