You can understand the pattern and still keep repeating it. Knowing why you
Understand what keeps it going, then change what you do next.
Welcome to The Internal Narrative
I’m Sally, founder of The Internal Narrative, a Strategic Psychotherapist and Clinical Hypnotherapist based in Melbourne, Australia. I work with the behaviours and relationship dynamics people find themselves repeating, even when they already know they’re not working. I’m also the author of Anxiety Is Not Your Personality, You Were Never Meant To Be Chosen and The Not Enough Problem.
WHAT KEEPS HAPPENING
You can change the relationship, the job, the circumstances or the people around you and still find yourself back in a familiar place. The same arguments, the same overthinking. Staying too long, leaving too early. Over explaining, checking, reassuring or rescuing.
Knowing something isn’t working and doing it anyway.
Over time, the way you’ve learned to respond can become so familiar that it feels like part of who you are. You may even understand exactly why you do it and still find yourself doing it again.
That’s where my work begins. We look at what is keeping the problem going in the present, what you’re doing when it happens, and what needs to change so you stop ending up in the same place.
