MAP Client Feedback

       “I decided to MAP after realizing that I had a deep depression that was preventing me from being able to live my life normally. I was not able to actually be happy, because underneath everything, there was a deep unresolved trauma that was always telling me happiness is not real, that there is something wrong with, and that no matter what I do it will always be futile. I felt so terrible deep down that I literally couldn’t function normally. Most of my days were spent feeling really bad, hopeless, sad, and depressed. I would temporarily feel good, but I did not have a solid foundation of “I am okay” deep down. I was very hurt. This affected all things, including the way I related to others. It didn’t occur to me that trauma may be the thing that’s preventing me from being able to move beyond and heal, and live a normal, happy life like everyone else seemed to be able to do. Depression had me always feeling like an outsider and different from other people. 

       MAP changed all of this on a level I didn’t know was possible or expected at all. While I was doing my welcome consultation with Jason, I nearly backed out of it because I felt like I didn’t really have trauma and it was a waste of time and money, and I was just “feeling sorry for myself.” Jason assured me these were real traumas. And he actually told me we could do the session right then and there, immediately after the welcome consultation. I am so glad and so grateful to Jason for this. 

We went through each flashback, and there were 4 that immediately popped into my mind, and Jason walked me through each one smoothly and effortlessly. As we healed each trauma and I made a new choice each time, I felt “space’ opening up in my heart and chest where these deeply rooted unprocessed feelings were occupying. It was amazing how easy it was. The new choice I came to make is to release self blame and to see my true value. 

       Since the session, the upheaval has passed for the most part, though it still comes in waves. The first several weeks very deep deep pain was releasing from my being and it was really intense. But as each wave passed, I felt stronger and more solid at the core of my being, whereas before there was a dark black hole of depression there that swallowed up all of my joy.

       And now, 6 weeks after MAP I am truly, genuinely feeling better than ever. I can feel the last bits of my depression processing and leaving. I am understanding on a deeper level that I am more than depression, and that I am an actual whole person who matters and has so much value to share with the world. Before I just felt guilty, wrong, and like I had no real value to offer the world. I processed and released some very deep, heavy things during my MAP experience. I can honestly say that MAP changed everything for me and I can’t believe that I ever lived any other way than trauma free. 

       I am so beyond grateful for MAP and for the existence of such miraculous healing. I never thought I would come to a place where I actually feel “okay” deep deep down. At my core, I know I will be okay. I know I can be happy, and I am committed to building a life of true happiness, which was something I could never seem to be able to do before MAP. I feel very emotional writing this now because I am looking back feeling only appreciation and compassion for myself having gone through what I did, and making such a choice to heal it. And for MAP, I feel so thankful for giving me the ability to live a trauma free life where I actually feel in control of my life, my relationships, and my feelings. I feel so grateful and emotional knowing I never have to experience trauma or depression again, because all I need to do is reinforce and reaffirm my choices. I feel powerful and confident. Thank you MAP.”
