Criticism & The Critic – Counselling Gold Coast

Working with the Critic

Many of us spend a considerable amount of our time criticising ourselves or surviving the criticism of others.

What are the benefits of being involved in a destructive critical cycle?
If there is no advantage then why do some of us consistently do it?

We have put together a short video that demonstrates the origins of the Critic Cycle. In this video we explore what are the advantages of self criticism and the advantages of criticising of others.

We also look at what we may experience if we don’t participate in ‘The Critic Cycle’. 

As many of us know through experience, loving and committed relationships can be destroyed by Criticism. ‘The Critic Cycle’ visually demonstrates how criticism is sometimes a very popular form of (feeling) avoidance due to the deluded sense of power and superiority (over others or ourselves) that accompanies the critical process. (To view-click on the image above).

If you are caught up in a critical dynamic in your relationship or a critical relationship with yourself then contact us.
