TRAUMA-informed COACHING

Let me introduce you to who I am. My name is Joshua Hyde, I am a Trauma-informed Coach who works with shadow aspects and deep healing techniques. My techniques will allow you to bring yourself into a deeper state of self-awareness in order to make sense of your journey and be more present and grounded in life. We live in a world where most people dwell on the past, refuse to accept the present and resist the uncertainty of the future. Only when we start to work with whatever life decides to offer to us instead of against it, can we truly thrive as humans.

Personally, my journey started with realising that I was constantly fighting against myself. Through therapy and other healing tools, I put myself on a journey of self-love, self-discovery, and self-acceptance. I went from victimizing myself and identifying with my traumas to stepping back from my thoughts and putting myself on a healing path. I started to see problems as challenges, experiences as lessons, and I made space for anything new to emerge. I also realised that I am not alone and that pain is universal. I want people to see that there is a way out and that's why I trained to become a coach, started leading workshops and helping clients. With determination, acceptance, and curiosity, I can help you lead a more fulfilling life. And remember, we are never healed, but always healing. There's always more work to be done.

TOPICS WE CAN WORK WITH:

Trauma: Most of us walk around with some sort of trauma, often stemming from experiences in early childhood. Trauma isn’t solely a consequence of something that happened to us, it can also arise from unmet childhood needs. Additionally, ancestral trauma, passed down through generations, can deeply influence our lives. Trauma manifests in various forms, affecting us from childhood through adulthood. I'm here to guide you through this complex terrain and aid in the healing process

Addiction: While detoxification is an important step in overcoming addiction, true recovery goes deeper than physical symptoms. Understanding the emotional and psychological roots of addiction can reveal patterns in your experiences and actions. By exploring these connections, you gain insight into the underlying causes of your behavior, making it easier to address and heal from them.

Addiction often stems from trauma, pain, or unmet emotional needs, and recognizing these drivers allows for more effective healing. The journey to recovery requires both self-compassion and the courage to face the deeper layers of your struggles, equipping you with the tools needed for lasting change.

Self-love and acceptance: Many people struggle with self-love, often focusing on their perceived flaws rather than celebrating their strengths. This lack of self-compassion can lead to negative self-talk, feelings of unworthiness, and a constant need for external validation. Instead of lifting themselves up, they end up reinforcing their insecurities and doubts, preventing personal growth.

Therapy offers a path to break this cycle. It provides a safe space to explore the origins of self-criticism and helps you understand how past experiences, trauma, and societal pressures may have shaped your self-perception. Through this process, you can begin to embrace self-acceptance, shedding the need to conform to others' expectations. Therapy can empower you to see your worth, focus on your strengths, and fully embody the person you are meant to be. Over time, you’ll develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself, allowing you to thrive as the truest and most authentic version of yourself.

Shadow work: Shadow work helps people shed light on hidden experiences, feelings and emotions that were pushed away in earlier stages of life. By bringing them to the forefront and acknowledging them, one can make sense of behavior and break through negative patterns. Simultaneously integrating these parts too wholeness.

Embodiment practises:  Often, we experience a disconnect between our minds and bodies, especially when dealing with stress or trauma. Embodiment practices, such as mindfulness, meditation, and self-acceptance, help to bridge this gap by allowing us to be fully present in our bodies. Through these practices, we learn to reconnect, fostering a deeper sense of self-awareness and self-care.

By tuning into the body, we can better understand the emotions and sensations we often overlook. This connection not only helps with healing but also empowers us to respond to life’s challenges with more balance and resilience. Embodiment is an essential part of integrating the mind and body for holistic well-being.

Professional development: Professional development goes beyond just learning leadership skills; it’s about addressing the internal barriers that may be holding you back in your career. Unhealed trauma and fears often play a significant role in creating self-doubt, procrastination, or fear of failure. By cultivating self-awareness and confronting these obstacles, you can step more fully into your potential as a leader.

Personal growth in your professional life requires an open mind and a willingness to embrace change. By developing key skills like communication and conflict management while also nurturing self-compassion, you can overcome internal roadblocks and lead with empathy and resilience. This balance of technical and emotional growth allows for true success and fulfillment in your career.
