“ I have been molested in childhood by different family members repeatedly …(pause) I hate to call them family…. I started hating myself, my own body, its like my own body is eating me up, for having gone through all this” This came from a young mother of two who had taken up spiritual practices to get rid of this childhood trauma. Even though she got a lot of inner strength after meeting her husband and after all these spiritual practices, still the irritation she had, had become like inbuilt in her and she desperately wanted a session to find out the reason why she was put to such traumatic situations in the age when she should have been playing outside with friends, the so called best period of everyone’s life.
A lot of people talk on woman empowerment and as women we all would have thought why women needs empowerment, they are so empowered. At times I have also debated that men and women are equal and stuff, but what I heard from this client actually shook me. The same man in the family has not only been molesting her, her sister, her cousins but has many times molested her mother too and none of them could raise their voice against him. No this is not a 40 years back story, it’s what my client went through recently, anyway coming back to her, as therapists we are taught not to react, that’s what I did and we went ahead with the history taking. We took only this pain as the main theme of the session and we started the session. The first session was only to relax my client and since her childhood was pathetic, had to do Inner Child Healing and after that she felt really relieved. But she wanted intensely to know the reason why she had to undergo so much pain in that young age. So the next session started and it was a total eye opener.
