Is It Time For A Change?

by Donald Marmara, Somatic Psychotherapist, Artarmon, Sydney

Are you looking for help to deal more effectively with stress, anxiety, relationship or other emotional challenges?

Have your attempts at therapy and self-healing fallen short of the mark?

Is it time for a change?

Core Development is a creative approach that often works when other forms of therapy haven’t been as effective as hoped.

Core Development is a learning process rather than a clinical treatment. It has evolved from my international counselling and somatic psychotherapy practice and life experience over a 40-year career. It can be used on its own, or as an adjunct to other therapy modalities.

Core Development takes the view that symptoms that are often labelled in our society as ‘sick’ or ‘dysfunctional’ are in many cases the opposite – they are pathways to creating more fulfilling and successful lives.

Core Development offers:

  • FACE-TO-FACE SESSIONS IN SYDNEY
  • ZOOM AND PHONE SESSIONS WORLDWIDE
  • A learning approach to Somatic(Body-inclusive) Psychotherapy for individuals and couples
  • Counselling and Psychotherapy for Parents and Teenagers (together and separately)
  • Biodynamic (Psychotherapeutic) Massage
  • Talks and workshops for groups and organisations

Life can be difficult sometimes.

Many of us experience stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, frustration or relationship difficulties.

It’s important to know that this does not necessarily mean that there is something wrong with you or that you are mentally ill.

These are all symptoms. You need to get to the underlying cause to create lasting and meaningful change.

You do not have to be mentally ill to benefit from this approach.

These feelings often arise because you do not fit into any of the boxes that you are expected to fit into. Your needs are not understood and they are not being met.

I’ve been through this myself. I know how it feels. I’ve turned my own life around after many years of distress and helped many others do the same.

I do not look for what’s wrong with you.

I look for what needs to happen, what’s trying to emerge, what your next step needs to be, and how I can support you in taking that step.

My aim is to help you deal effectively with the challenges you are facing, so you can make your life and relationships more fulfilling.

I offer sessions for individuals, couples, parents and teenagers, and talks and workshops for groups and organisations.

Anxious? Depressed?

Tired and Irritable?

Relationship Problems?

Confused and Frustrated?

Sore Back and Headaches?

Lacking Energy and Enthusiasm?

 

Are you looking for guidance and support in dealing more effectively with your life’s challenges?

Do you want to be true to yourself in an environment or society that may not always share your priorities and values?
