Compassionate Inquiry
Compassionate Inquiry® is a therapeutic method created by Dr. Gabor Maté that uncovers the underlying truths behind our outward appearances.
When individuals view the therapeutic relationship as a safe space, compassion and curiosity enable them to confront and explore childhood traumas, recognize internalized beliefs, and process suppressed emotions, all of which aid in the healing journey.
Through Compassionate Inquiry, both the client and therapist reveal levels of awareness, mental states, hidden, implicit memories, and bodily sensations that communicate deeper meanings beyond spoken words.
By freeing ourselves from the grip of these narratives, we open up to new ways of being, fostering spontaneity, choice, growth, and liberation.
“The aim of Compassionate Inquiry is to delve into the core narratives individuals tell themselves—helping them to uncover what stories they unconsciously hold, where those beliefs originated, and guiding them toward the possibility of releasing those narratives or their influence over them.”
