What is Empowered Maturity™?

Empowered Maturity™ is your destiny.
It is the opposite of dis-empowered immaturity.

There is nothing wrong with dis-empowered immaturity:
that is how we all began life.
Infants are immature and powerless.
But your destiny is to grow and develop
into your full potential:
into an empowered, mature, adult individual.
Biological maturity is automatic. 
​Empowered Maturity™ is not.
It depends on a set of ideal developmental conditions for which most of us had to compensate during our formative years.
Biological maturity is automatic.
​
Empowered Maturity™ is not.
Mental health and psychological well-being are inversely related to those developmental compensations,
which range from
​self-defeating beliefs,
reactive emotions,
patterns of behavior,
to substance and process addictions,
and other mental health diagnoses.

How to Reach for it

Empowered Maturity™ is a counseling technology developed by Patrick Hentsch that helps clients to

identify and understand how your developmental compensations have been obstructing the actualization of your full potential in your life;

and to learn and develop customized Empowered Maturity™ skills with which to replace your self-limiting approaches to life.

The Elements of Empowered Maturity™

Freedom

The ability to
choose your ​responses.

Responsibility

The ability to
respond to your choices.

Power

The ability to create
intentional change.

Resilience

The capacity to endure
the rawness of life.
If you are unable to choose your responses to life,
If you are unable to respond to your own choices,
If you're generating effects in your life that you didn't intend,
If you cannot bear to feel the rawness of being alive,
If you are a slave to your habits,
If your life feels unmanageable,
If life is happening to you instead of with you,
If life feels like something you want to escape,
If you feel like your own worst enemy,
If the problems you face feel too disheartening, 
If you wonder how you ended up so far from your own dreams,
If you are tired of trying to avoid the experience of your own existence,
Then it is time to uncover your authentic Self:
You are ready for Empowered Maturity™
