JongStressVRIJ

At JongStressVRIJ, we offer a unique and powerful treatment method: Mirror Therapy. This form of therapy is specifically developed for parent-child relationships and helps you understand and break patterns that can sometimes unknowingly cause tension. If you notice that your child's behavior triggers certain emotions, such as irritation, anger, or sadness, something deeper may be at play. What is your child subconsciously trying to tell you? Using the mirror method, we'll work together to explore the underlying causes and emotions, so you can better understand both yourself and your child. This therapy is a valuable step toward greater family harmony and personal growth for both parties.

What is mirror therapy?

Mirror therapy is a therapeutic method that focuses on improving communication between parent and child. It helps parents better understand their children's unconscious messages and emotions. By reflecting on their own reactions, parents can gain insight into what's really going on, both for themselves and their child.

Mirror therapy & feelings

As a parent, you may experience certain feelings, such as sadness, anger, or irritation, when your child exhibits a specific behavior. These emotions are often a reaction to your child's behavior, but they can also reveal something about yourself. Mirror therapy helps you explore and understand these feelings, so you can discover the subconscious messages your child is trying to convey.

How do you recognize it?

You can recognize it by recurring reactions or patterns in your child's behavior. If you notice yourself consistently experiencing the same emotions in response to specific behaviors, this could be an indication of a trigger that affects you. These triggers can often be unconscious, but they are crucial to understand.

What are the consequences?

Unprocessed emotions and misunderstandings can lead to a negative spiral in the parent-child relationship. This can result in increased frustration, distance, and a lack of communication within the family. By working with mirror therapy, you can break these consequences and bring about a positive change in the family dynamic.

What can you do yourself?

You can start by observing your own reactions and feelings. Ask yourself questions like, "Why do I feel this way?" or "What is my child trying to tell me?" By actively working with your own emotions, you can gain more insight into your interactions with your child. You might also consider consulting a therapist specializing in mirror therapy for further guidance.

I was completely down for a while due to various setbacks in life, and thanks to Joost, I have created peace and space in my head again. The conversations were pleasant, and thanks to Joost, I have learned to deal better with my insecurity and problems. Thank you, Joost, you're the best!

I didn't expect the two-day relationship therapy to be such a success. It didn't feel like 'therapy' for a single moment. In plain language and with down-to-earth North Holland pragmatism (and without overly heavy conversations), Joost and Priscilla made us aware of why communication within our relationship doesn't always go the way we would like and how to handle this better. We really treat each other differently now. There is much more peace, relaxation, and openness. Thank you!
