FAQ: Therapy card decks

Therapy Card Decks are tools used to facilitate emotional healing, self-awareness, and personal growth through structured prompts, exercises, or reflections. Each card provides a therapeutic question, scenario, or activity aimed at helping individuals explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. These decks are based on various therapeutic approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), or mindfulness practices, and are used to support mental and emotional well-being.

These decks are used by therapists, counselors, life coaches, and individuals seeking to improve their mental health or work through emotional challenges. They are popular in both one-on-one therapy sessions and group therapy settings. People who engage in self-help, personal development, or are working through specific mental health issues may also use these decks for self-guided reflection and healing.

You use these decks to promote self-reflection, develop coping strategies, and gain insight into your emotions and behaviors. The cards provide a structured yet flexible way to address issues like anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship challenges. They help break down complex emotional topics into manageable steps, offering tools for healing and personal growth. The decks encourage mindful awareness and are designed to foster emotional regulation and resilience.

To use the deck, you draw one or more cards, either randomly or based on a specific issue you want to address. Each card offers a therapeutic prompt, exercise, or reflection question that guides you through a process of self-exploration or emotional processing. In therapy sessions, the therapist may use the cards to stimulate discussion or to focus on particular areas of concern. When used individually, the cards can inspire journaling, mindfulness practices, or personal reflection exercises aimed at improving emotional well-being over time.

Fairy Tales metaphoric cards

JOURNEY THROUGH THE ENCHANTING WORLD OF FAIRY TALES WITH SYMBOLIC WISDOM AND INSIGHT.

SINGLE DECK

Fairy tale metaphoric cards are a tool that uses images and symbols from fairy tales to provide insights into a person's life, emotions, and future. Fairy tale metaphoric cards can be used for a variety of purposes, including self-reflection, decision-making, problem-solving, and spiritual growth. They offer a unique and imaginative way to explore the deeper aspects of our psyche and tap into the collective wisdom of traditional folklore and mythology. They can be an excellent tool for working with both children and adults, providing a creative and engaging activity that can be presented in a game format.
Each of us has an inner child - we were all once children, spontaneous, creative, joyful, curious, and well aware of our desires. However, contact with our inner child can be lost, causing us to miss out on many strong characteristics and joyful opportunities. Fairy tale metaphoric cards can help restore our connection with our inner child and provide a deeper understanding of our desires and motivations. But of course, the benefits of fairy tale metaphoric cards go beyond restoring contact with our inner child. There are lots of articles about the benefits of fairy tale therapy, and the main specific of those cards is that fairytale is a natural, comprehensible and ecological format that does not scare us.
Fairy Tales Deck includes characters, locations, different items (like letter, sword, money chest etc.), animals and other mythical creatures.

SIMPLE TRUTHS

UNTANGLE HIDDEN ISSUES

SINGLE DECK

‘Simple Truths’ is a deck of cards designed to help you think about your relationships, be those relationships with people (partner, parent, colleague, etc) or things (money, work, the future, etc).

The deck is divided into two suits, each made up of 100 cards displaying a single sentence:

The red ‘tangled’ sentences represent the thoughts that may be holding you back in a relationship. For example, ‘There’s a limit to my love,’ ‘I would rather dream than act’, ‘I don’t deserve to win’.

The green ‘untangled’ sentences express thoughts that may be more constructive. For example, ‘I will open the door’, ‘I will share my secret’, ‘No more theories, just the facts’.

You are invited to focus on a particular relationship, and then choose up to three red ‘tangled’ cards and three green ‘untangled’ cards. You read the sentences and reflect on how they apply to the relationship in question. Where is the truth?

In some cases, the sentences might confirm what you were already thinking. In other cases, they might name something of which you were only dimly aware. They might challenge your assumptions. They might even get you to rethink the relationship altogether.

There is no limit to how many relationships you can think about with the cards. The two hundred sentences should give you everything you need to express what is hindering those relationships and how to help them.

RENEW: The Work Before the Work

CLARIFY YOUR PURPOSE, ENERGIZE YOUR INTENTIONS, AND MAKE PEACE WITH THE PATH AHEAD

SINGLE DECK

Clarify Your Purpose. Energize Your Intentions. Make Peace with the Path Ahead.

So many people long for healing, change, and a life that feels aligned—but when they finally begin the process, they quickly feel overwhelmed, scattered, or unsure of where to start. Beneath the surface, their thoughts are tangled, their energy is drained by inner resistance, and their deeper “why” remains unclear.

This is where RENEW: The Work Before the Work becomes essential.

This guided card deck and journaling system is your foundation for transformation. It helps you clear the mental and emotional clutter that clouds your vision, reconnect with what truly matters, and align your energy with purposeful intention, before you dive into the deeper healing work.

Through thoughtful prompts, affirmations, and reflections, you'll gently uncover unconscious beliefs, dissolve internal blocks, and make space for clarity and focus. Journaling becomes a powerful mirror, revealing patterns, releasing confusion, and guiding you back to your inner truth.

By slowing down and engaging in intentional reflection, you begin to listen to yourself beyond the noise, beyond fear, and beyond distraction. You reconnect with your heart, your values, and your readiness to evolve.

This is not just preparation, it’s a profound act of self-honoring.
When the foundation is clear and your energy is aligned, you're no longer chasing healing from a place of chaos or depletion. Instead, you’re grounded, focused, and open—ready to step into deeper work with strength, clarity, and calm.

The result?
A renewed sense of direction.
An energized connection to your truth.
And a calm, centered readiness to become your most radiant, whole, and empowered self.
