FEAR OF FEELING POWERLESS
At the root of many fears is the fear of “not being good enough” – which is another way of describing the anxiety connected with feeling powerless. Many of my clients mention this fear in their first phone call to me. Often, it is caused by perfectionism and a desire to look good in front of other people. However, even normal feelings of insecurity can trigger the anxiety connected with feeling powerless.
In coaching sessions, we explore and process the background causes for your fears. These often grew from childhood or school experiences, and the fear then rears its ugly head in exam situations, when giving a work presentation, or even in friendships or relationships. Convictions formed in the dim and distant past can impede you in your present life – so they need to be rethought.
