The Healing Journey Begins When You Have the Courage to Take the First Step
Counseling
True healing transformation requires us to go beyond talk therapy alone and access the subconscious mind, where we can find deep and profound healing from our past. Whether it be a 'deep dive' session, an updating or a processing session, meeting one on one with clients is always a powerful time of growth and discovery of what is within.
Acting as a guide to my clients, I aim to help each person discover their own abilities to find healing and growth from within. I believe that each person already innately knows how to self-heal - it is a matter of having someone to help them read the map that leads to the discover of this power. This approach lays the foundation for work done within individual counseling sessions.
Hypnotherapy Techniques
RESOURCING
The foundation on which the rest of your hypnosis work will be built upon, resourcing allows you to get the idea of how hypnosis feels, to experience the power of the mind, and to build tools that you can come back to in sessions and in your daily life. Resources are coping tools that we build within our minds that can help return your body to a calm and relaxed state. The possibilities for resourcing is endless, and extremely powerful within itself!
AGE REGRESSION
Age regressions target specific emotions, feelings, and problem areas to gain a better understanding of the source of the issue. They allow you to go band and re-experience a time in your life that may be the pain source or contributing factor to a present day issue, while also holding the space to express and heal what wasn't in the past. Age regressions may take you back to earlier in your adulthood, to your childhood, to a birth or womb experience, or even to a past life experience.
INNER CHILD HEALING
A powerful aspect of hypnotherapy, incorporating parts work allows you to deeply connect with your inner child. Particularly when following age regressions, you will gain a clearer understanding of what your inner child needed and did not receive, allowing you the opportunity to provide for them what they need most. This process may include reparenting, learning how to care for that inner child, strengthening the relationship with each aspect of the self and healing that inner child's deepest wounds.
OTHER TECHNIQUES
The world of hypnosis and hypnotherapy is endless, and therefore can be adapted for any goal or intention that you may have! Other techniques that will or may be explored through hypnosis include: emotional energy release, identifying old beliefs and behavioral patterns, extinguishing unwanted emotions or behaviors, extinguishing cravings, and past life regressions, to name a few.
Other Counseling Approaches
BRAINSPOTTING
Based on the belief that 'where you look affects how you feel', Brainspotting (BSP) is a technique used to process trauma, anxiety, depression and other unwanted emotions. Combining somatic processing with eye placement and movement, BSP helps you to discover the underlying issues and allows your body to process and heal. You are truly your own healer as you tap into the natural resources and healing power within yourself.
PARTS WORK
Each of us have our true, authentic selves, along with numerous additional 'parts', each made up from our life experiences and identified roles needed in order to cope and maintain optimal functioning. The problem is, we sometimes outgrow these parts or they are no longer operating in a healthy and sustainable manner. Based on the Internal Family Systems (IFS) theory, part work includes meeting, working with, and harmonizing with the different parts of ourselves under the leadership of your True Self.
EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUE (EFT)
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT or Tapping) is an alternative method to treat anxiety, depression, physical pain, emotional distress, and insomnia. Stemming from Chinese medicine thought, this method focuses on the areas of the body where there may be energetic imbalances, leading to mental and physical illness. Through tapping on these various points, we are able to restore the body's energy to its optimal frequency and health.
GUIDED MEDITATION & VISUALIZATION
Guided meditation and visualization is often an approachable way to gain access to and work within your subconscious mind. Customized to your specific goals and intentions, meditation and visualization can be a powerful tool to creating lasting change, growth, and empowerment within your life!
