Identity
Understanding Your Story
When trauma occurs within significant relationships—such as those with family, friends, or romantic partners—it can profoundly impact how you see yourself and relate to the world around you. This can make it challenging to understand or value your own feelings and desires.
Complex Conditions of Worth
If you grew up in an environment where love and approval felt conditional, it’s understandable you might believe that your worth is tied to what you do for others rather than who you truly are. Over time, this pattern can distort your self-perception and you might find yourself thinking that you’re not good enough or that you don’t deserve love and respect.
