The Cuckoo Syndrome Therapy
Specialty sessions designed to help women break free from unhealthy relationships, toxic thinking, and self-sabotaging behavior.
Description
These speciality sessions are for the countless people who are suffering from a hidden pain and heartache destructively affecting their self-worth, careers, ministry, and their most intimate relationships.
Have you wondered if something is missing and feels off, yet you can’t quite put your finger on it? Chances are you have a cuckoo in your life, your “nest.” Whether you are stuck in a continuous cycle of carrying the emotional weight of your relationships or feel empty and overwhelmed-- what you believe is holding you back or getting in your way is most likely not what you think it is.
An Invisible Enemy
Cuckoo birds are nature’s infamous deceivers, manipulators, and takers. They are imposters who mimic who you are and what you want. Unbeknownst to most, the human heart is hosting a “cuckoo”, an invisible enemy, that is creating unnecessary suffering by subtly draining our energy, consuming our time, and stealing our joy. I have witnessed thousands of people who display this pattern.
Who is it for?
Sessions are designed to help you deal with specific ways The Cuckoo Syndrome symptoms and patterns manifest in your life personally and professionally.
The Cuckoo Syndrome Therapy is Designed for Two Types of People:
Type 1
-
You find yourself carrying the emotional weight of your relationship, giving more than you are able, saying yes when you really mean no, and receiving little to no reciprocation.
-
You continually feel hurt by this person, you chronically neglect yourself to please them and take care of them even though they are never satisfied and don’t give back to you in the same way.
-
You’ve adopted the role of fixer, rescuer, caretaker or always being available. The relationship is monopolizing your time, demands your attention, and drains your energy.
-
You leave conversations with this person feeling confused, manipulated, deceived – even a bit crazy.
-
Your voice is rarely heard, your needs are left unmet, and you feel misunderstood. You often feel ashamed and frustrated with yourself for not standing your ground and for agreeing with them when you don’t. You feel lonely within your relationship.
Type 2
-
Your career or ministry becomes the primary source of your identity, worth, and value. You derive significance solely from your accomplishments and neglect your health and relationships.
-
Your passions that once brought you happiness - have grown into obsessions that feel overwhelming and all consuming. These good things or even God things have slowly spiraled out of control such as your to-do-list, on-line dating, volunteering, work, social media, food, TV, or exercising.
-
You are driven by your performance instead of driven by your purpose. Even though your life is full of activity, you feel empty.
-
Pleasing, perfecting, and performing have become your constant companions that steal your joy, strip away meaning from life, and erode your sense of self. A crippling perfectionism, analysis paralysis, work-a-holic tendencies, and comparisonitis create burnout through emotional exhaustion.
-
Your thought life primarily consists of endless rationalizing, reasoning, and ruminating preventing you from making simple decisions and rob your peace of mind.
-
You’ve developed a pattern of unhealthy coping mechanisms to help you deal with stress, insecurity, and excessive worrying such as: overeating, drinking, shopping, gossiping, sex, and endless time on your phone.
