Inanna, the ancient goddess from Mesopotamian mythology, represents a deep and symbolic journey into the Underworld—a powerful metaphor for the emotional and psychological challenges many face. This story mirrors the process people often experience when they seek support through counselling in Coquitlam or across BC. Imagine Inanna as someone navigating emotional hardship, similar to what clients might face when they begin therapy. Her descent into the Underworld reflects the courageous step of turning inward, confronting difficult emotions and unknown parts of ourselves. As she passes through seven gates, she sheds something at each one—symbolic of the healing work that can happen with a therapist in Coquitlam, where individuals slowly release fears, doubts, or past pain on the path toward personal transformation and growth.
The story also highlights the importance of finding balance and learning to embrace all of our emotions—both the light and the dark. Our mental health is made up of a wide range of feelings, and acknowledging this emotional complexity is key to our overall well-being. In many ways, Inanna’s journey mirrors the process of healing through counselling in Coquitlam, where self-exploration and growth are encouraged. With the guidance of a professional therapist in Coquitlam, individuals can begin to understand their inner world more deeply. Just like Inanna, we all have the strength to face life’s emotional challenges and, with the right support, emerge more grounded, renewed, and empowered.
When Inanna encounters judgment and goes through a symbolic death, it mirrors those intense, challenging moments we might experience during therapy or deep self-reflection. These struggles can feel overwhelming, but with the guidance of a professional therapist in Coquitlam, they can become meaningful turning points for personal growth and transformation. In the myth, Inanna is revived by the “food and water of life”—much like the emotional nourishment and practical tools we receive through therapy in Cloverdale. Whether it’s from a skilled therapist, supportive friends, or helpful mental health resources, this kind of care helps us recover and grow stronger. Just as Inanna must choose a substitute in the Underworld, our own healing journey may ask us to let go of old habits or harmful thought patterns, creating space for healthier, more fulfilling ways of living.
Lily is our beloved therapy dog companion. Along the often difficult path of healing and self-discovery, Lily naturally offered steady, comforting support to those finding their way through emotional struggles. The decision to blend Lily’s name with the story of Inanna in the creation of this practice carries deep personal meaning. During some of the darkest, most overwhelming times, Lily stood as a source of comfort and strength. She became a vital emotional anchor, gently guiding individuals through their hardest moments. In many ways, Lily is the heart and soul that keeps LINANNA alive—a reminder of the compassion and care that’s also present in counselling in Coquitlam. Just like a professional therapist in Coquitlam, Lily’s presence reflects the kind of steady support that helps people heal, grow, and feel less alone on their journey.
