Book Description
With this book we find that there is reason to believe that we can break free from our psychological suffering. Dr Marleen De Villiers shows how you can find the gift in the wounds that you have uncomfortably lived with for too long. She expertly places psychotherapy in the spotlight, showing us that there is another way. This book debunks the uncomfortable myths of psychotherapy and offers a way forward into personal growth, self-mastery and authenticity. By offering researched facts alongside stories and vignettes of patients and clients emerging from her professional psychotherapy practice, she succinctly creates a floor plan resulting in a comprehensive offering for understanding our personal and collective psychological profiles.
Ultimately, Born Baggaged embraces the power of transformation and the possibility of metamorphosis. The message is clear: you can change your limiting self-belief and restrictive patterns, you can create the life that you deserve and you can be the person who you have actually been born to be, authentic and free.
“Why do we believe the lies that we live with that started in our families and that we continue to drag around our relationships like filthy rags? Do we tell ourselves new and smarter lies as we go through life, or can we choose differently, to grow through life’s challenges and upheavals, as much as we celebrate the magnificent moments that come around as well?”
– Marleen De Villiers, Ph.D
