You can't insist on trust, or coerce it. There has to be freedom and safety for us to figure out for ourselves whether we want to trust or not. Find out more in this episode at https://lnkd.in/eBxDEqTv or on Spotify etc. #TherapistsConnect

Forced to trust. Sounds like an impossibility. Better go and have a listen to this episode. Will be back later. Thanks for the thought though.

4moI have had a listen. Trust is something that is formed and earned over time. A therapist has to earn your trust; and so does anyone worth knowing. Trust is a very precious faculty. Abusing a child is the most horrific way of damaging this faculty. Children have to trust their mother, so if she is abusive, you have a huge task ahead of you. You have to re-learn, how to do it, because an abusive mother has robbed you of a vital part, of your childhood and development. Trust is restored, through constant, loving actions. A person who helps you to restore the faculty to trust, has given you a blessing, to replace the whack of abuse, dumped upon you, by a mother who was unable to love and trust her own child. ❤️ 🙏 ❤️
