If you can give a clean, articulate analysis of your own emotional patterns, and still feel exactly as stuck. That's not resistance. It's usually a part of you that learned, a long time ago, that staying in your head was safer than staying in your body or your feelings.
Schedule a ConsultationParts work treats your mind less like a single "you" and more like an internal system: different parts that developed at different points, often to protect you. The part that intellectualizes? It's not the enemy. It's just been doing its job for a long time. Instead of fighting it, we get curious: what is it protecting you from, and is that still necessary the way it used to be?
This is usually the right fit if you can talk about your feelings fluently and still don't quite feel them in the room. If you've noticed yourself analyzing an emotion instead of having it, almost as it's happening. If you've done therapy before and it stayed entirely in your head, productive but never quite landing anywhere, this is often where we start instead: slowly, and at a pace that doesn't feel destabilizing.
