Head Trash Clearance vs traditional therapy – what’s the difference?

Head Trash Clearance and traditional therapy both aim to help you feel better — but the way they get there is very different. Knowing the differences can help you decide which is the right fit for your needs.

Speed and focus

Traditional therapy often involves regular sessions over months or years, exploring thoughts, feelings, and patterns, and the reasons why you might be feeling the way you do. Head Trash Clearance is designed to work faster by going straight to the emotional trigger and neutralising it; it’s less focussed on the story or the why.

Depth vs detail

Therapy may encourage revisiting past experiences in depth, which can be valuable for understanding yourself. Head Trash Clearance doesn’t require full storytelling — you only need enough detail to work with the trigger.

Active vs reflective

Therapy can be reflective, with insight developing over time. Head Trash Clearance is active: you identify a trigger, apply the process, and notice a shift, often in a single session. The process encourages reflection and can often bring great insights.

 

Self-healing potential

One key difference is accessibility. Head Trash Clearance is designed for self-use as well as professional use, so you can work on yourself anytime. Therapy generally requires working with a professional.
