Coherence Therapy is an experiential depth therapy that aims to uncover and change the root emotional learnings that make unwanted patterns and symptoms arise in the mind. Many of your symptoms once served as perfectly coherent solutions to a suffering or a series of sufferings during an earlier time in your life. The problem is your mind is still unconsciously producing these symptoms even when the original suffering has passed.

A child who gets shut down every time they cry will develop a schema that says, “I cannot ever express grief or I will be ridiculed and shut down, so I am going to form a solution and never allow myself to cry, express grief, or become vulnerable with other people.” A learning like that operates as a powerful emotional truth to your nervous system. You take the schema or construct as reality itself, as being absolutely emotionally true.
