Systemic Coach Training: Relationships & Disease

Martyn Carruthers

Are you entangled in difficult relationships or painful emotions? Do you suffer from old trauma? Do you suffer from your parents' drama, your partner's demands, your boss's moods? We can coach you to untangle your life ... and you can coach other people to reclaim their freedom. Contact us.

Mission & Remission

Following our systemic coaching, many people have reported that symptoms of  diseases spontaneously lessened and vanished, even symptoms that were not mentioned or discussed during the sessions. Pains disappeared, allergies evaporated and migraines ceased ...

Medical tests showed that blood chemistry and eye prescriptions changed. As relationships healed, some problems associated with depression or anxiety and panic attacks faded away, addictions ceased and compulsions vanished.

These changes may be connected to our perception that most disease symptoms make sense. Disease symptoms often seem to serve a function in relationships. This means that the severity and duration of disease symptoms may be changed by changing relationship behavior!

Spontaneous remission also seems related to responsibility and motivation, although suggestible people may only show beneficial changes for a limited time.

[ When Disease Makes Sense ]

Relationship & Disease

Most people discriminate between close and distant relationships. Closeness refers to the degree of perceived or experienced intimacy - good feelings - about a person. This evaluation may resemble reality - e.g. a person usually feels close to a partner or to family members. Some people may feel closer to a past partner than to a current partner.

Distorted or entangled relationships - sometimes called transference or substitution - often indicate deep, unconscious wishes. Through these distortions, friends, work colleagues, movie stars or fictional characters may be perceived as replacements for problematic or missing family members.

If you focus on close relationships with family members, the same distortion applies. You may perceive a child as a partner, or as a parent. When this occurs, you may attempt (unconsciously - without conscious rationalization) to relate to a person as if that person were someone else.

I am a surgeon. When friends told me about your work, I didn't believe it, but I wanted to meet you anyway. I discovered that my own health problems might be in part compensation for my mother's abortion ... and that her abortion had strongly affected my (horrible) partnership, my miscarriage and my son's mental health. Your coaching helped me sort it all out.

The most common relationship chaos may be when parents are confused between partners and children. (See Mother-Son and Father-Daughter bonds.) Some people may perceive a sibling as a substitute for a parent, partner or child. There are many possibilities for deep and lasting confusion.

Systemic Coaching

Our systemic coaching can dissolve issues that affect your ability to achieve your goals. Probably, your real blocks to success are your emotions and relationships - independent of whether your desired success is in sport, business, academia, partnership or community development.

If you take responsibility for your life, if you are motivated and if you have no distracting crisis, then we can start ... usually with systemic diagnosis of your relationships, goals and entanglements.

Systemic Clarity

Your success will likely involve your relationships. In any human system, whether a family, team or community, the success (or failure) of one member will impact other members, in ways that the other members may or may not enjoy. Members of a system will, consciously or unconsciously, respond and give feedback about the actions of a member.

Our systemic diagnosis includes subjective perceptions. For example, if one member perceives another as a "substitute for a child" or a "substitute for a parent", etc, that member will respond according to their subjective perceptions. Both people may perceive each other as substitutes.

Consider a partnership. If a partner perceives the other as parent - then that partner may act childishly, expecting the other to care for him or her. If a partner perceives the other as child - then that partner may demand compliance.

Feedback can be accepted, refused or ignored - the reaction to feedback will change or redefine the relationship. Our systemic coaching can accelerate healthy relationship redefinition.

For example. if a partner is addicted to a substance or an activity, the other partner may be addicted to both the first partner AND to his or her disease. Then both partners feel helpless and stuck. We perceive codependence as an entanglement resulting from identity loss and we offer coaching solutions.

Relationship Diagnosis

Our systemic coaching includes non-categorical diagnostic models, based in part on evaluating the benefits of disease symptoms within human relationship systems. These five types of disease benefits, reflect five types of relationship issues.

1. Do disease symptoms express a crisis?

A disease may be a way of coping with exhaustion or some other crisis. For example, the symptoms of a common cold or migraine may justify taking a day or two away from a heavy workload.

2. Do disease symptoms express inner conflict?

Personality integration can alleviate symptoms of mental and physical diseases that are based on conflict. (E.g. A person with long-term inner conflict may experience stress-related disease, such as digestive problems or hypertension.)

3. Do disease symptoms express relationship bonds?

A disease may represent a bond to someone. Changing relationship bonds may alleviate mental or physical symptoms needed to maintain unhealthy beliefs. (E.g. “I am only cared for when I am ill”)

4. Do disease symptoms express emotional trauma or abuse?

Our trauma work alleviates symptoms based on overwhelming emotions from abuse and trauma. E.g. A person may have had a traumatic experience, and withheld expressing the emotion or emotions related to that experience. Diseases may form in the location of the body in which withheld emotions are felt.

5. Do disease symptoms allow similarity to role models?

Changing role models may help alleviate symptoms based on imitating unhealthy people. For example, a person may have a similar symptom to a parent or a favored teacher. (E.g. Some students of Milton Erickson, an American psychiatrist afflicted with poliomyelitis, developed polio-like symptoms).

[ Psychosomatic Symptoms ]

Systemic Coaching

Although helping professionals recognize the importance of diet, exercise and drugs; many ignore relationship and emotional factors. We can:

  • support disease management and professional health care
  • support healthy behavioral changes, such as diet and physical activity
  • promote emotional well being and life activities (e.g., education and recreation)
  • provide many possibilities for improving relationships and emotional stability

Please consult a medical doctor about diseases, medical symptoms or medical conditions.

We welcome friendly people who are emotionally stable. Do you want to coach people to gain clarity, dissolve success and relationship issues, and understand what makes sense in life? Do you want to help people build success and quality relationships? Contact us.
