REFLECTION

Therapy can be a shorter or longer process that involves deep self-inquiry in close connection with symbolic material and one’s inner world as well as the outer realisation of what it means to become authentic with yourself and others

•

The therapeutic journey will include insight into your childhood to gain awareness and understanding of the present patterns that may stand in your way of unfolding your potential. By practising being more present in the now we can carefully open the door to a deeper intimacy with life itself

•

People often seek therapy because of some unconscious calling or longing to reconnect with an inner sense of peace. What initially brings us into therapy may be a deep depression, a feeling of inner emptiness, a loss, relationship issues, fear, lack of direction or meaning in life, eating disorders, abuse, loneliness, blocks to creativity, or a deep longing for something more and un-definable.

TRANSITION

The way we relate to ourselves, others and the world, and the choices we make in life, are mostly rooted in our early life experiences and the many transitions we face. It is also intimately woven with the ever-changing world around us, and can make us question who we ARE and how to relate to these changes

To serve soul involves a willingness and cooperation for us to let go and face the many experiences that have shaped us and our relations to ourselves and the world around

As we let go, we prepare as best we can, with a sense of inner peace for what may come. We undoubtedly face periods of uncertainty and change in identifying any patterns that tether our innate life force and creativity. As we walk this path, we learn to bear suffering rather than avoiding. We begin to open for letting life flow through us - just as it is - by drawing on inner qualities such as stillness, understanding, openness, love and compassion for ourselves, all beings, and our planet.

PROCESS

I have come to know therapy as a journey that involves a deep inquiry into the deepest corners of our psyche along with an opening to the vast spaciousness that we truly are in our Essence

•

I don’t draw on any particular methodology, but work in a relational way that supports you in embracing who you are more deeply and authentically in alignment with Essence

•

An embracing and integrative way that doesn’t attempt to ’fix’ psyche or ’cure’ us from symptoms, but instead sees symptoms as valuable guides and messengers that demand our deepest attention, understanding, and compassion. This opens the natural inclination within us, which, over the course of life will lead to a greater sense of wisdom, tolerance, and capacity to give and receive love

•

I work with myth, symbols, dreams, active imagination, somatic inquiry, movement and meditation - and of course, the spoken word...
