The traumatised person is cut off from language, deprived of the power of words, trapped in speechless terror.

The Ten Stages seeks to deal with the trapped “Traumatic reenactment”it is the term we use to describe the lingering behavioural enactment and automatic repetition of the past events. The very nature of traumatic information processing determines the reenactment behaviour.

The traumatised person is cut off from language, deprived of the power of words, trapped in speechless terror. Trauma demands repetition – what Pierre Janet, Freud and so many others observed when they noticed the compulsion to repeat evident in trauma survivors. As Freud wrote, “He reproduces it not as a memory but as an action; he repeats it without, of course, knowing that he is repeating... he cannot escape from this compulsion to repeat; and in the end we understand that this is his way of remembering”.Addiction is the way of temporary forgetting and hence we begin to understand the repeated circle of addiction. This becomes part of the study course at The Ten Stages and starts to address the constant emotional relapse phase of an addiction.Other programs tend to treat the rash of addiction.The Ten Stages is the only study course that tackles the roots, gently and throughly.



The Ten Stages is a studied recovery course. It is a source of reconnection a method of unlearning and a reintroduction to our child within which leads us back to our one true intuitive voice.We start to learn and come out of our protective dysfunctional shell and reclaim our lives. #childwithin#10stages
