Dr Jena Field — Specialisation
Sometimes you can see exactly where you want to go, but somehow you just can't seem to get there. You know something needs to change, yet you feel caught in the same patterns, going round in circles or stuck in the mud. You want to move forward, but you just can't quite find a way through.
MONKEY THERAPY FOR STUCKNESS & MOMENTUM
Feeling stuck is exhausting. You can see the life you want — the decision, the change, the next step — yet something invisible keeps holding you in place.
The harder you push, the more frustrated and self-critical you become, until even small steps feel heavy.
A different view
Being stuck is rarely about laziness or a lack of willpower. More often, it's an internal tug-of-war: one part of you is desperate for change, while another part is trying to protect you from risk, failure, or discomfort.
Monkey Therapy works with both sides. By getting curious about what the resistance is trying to do, we ease the internal friction so your energy and momentum can return naturally.
What to expect in sessions
Find what's keeping you stuck. Understand the thoughts, beliefs, emotions and patterns beneath your resistance, so you can begin to move forward.
Make sense of your mixed feelings. When one part of you wants change and another holds you back, we explore what's underneath with curiosity and compassion, helping you find greater clarity about what you really want.
Work through what's getting in the way. Face the fears, doubts and emotional roadblocks that keep you avoiding, procrastinating or playing small, and build new ways of responding.
Turn insight into action. Create practical steps that feel achievable and meaningful, building momentum as you put them into practice.
Build confidence as you move forward. Develop greater self-trust, resilience and a sense of agency, so you can handle setbacks without losing sight of where you want to go.
