How I Work
Each session I offer is uniquely tailored to the person that I am working with. I draw from various skills and healing modalities and use what is called for at the time. Everything I use is something that has been an intrinsic part of my own healing journey. I trust that people who are drawn to work with me will resonate with the tools I have used to transform my life. Some of the techniques you can expect include:
Spiritual Counselling
I always seek to connect with you from a place of unconditional love and acceptance. All of you is welcome in these non-judgmental and confidential healing spaces. I strive to uphold the Code of Ethics laid out for ordained ministers by the OneSpirit Interfaith foundation. The skills I bring and continue to cultivate include active listening, mirroring and asking skillful questions to help you come to know yourself more fully. As part of my final year of ministerial training (October 2021 – June 2022) I will be working with a supervisor to further support me in this work.
Guided Visualization
I used this meditative practice to guide people deeper into their unconscious. This is rooted in the Jungian technique of Active Imagination. By tapping into the subconscious mind in a relaxed way we can reprogram false beliefs and help you to create and manifest the life you desire. This is a great way to find answers to important questions in your life, connect to guides, power animals & ancestors, receive divine guidance & inspiration and retrieve parts of the soul that may have been disconnected due to past trauma. All of my work is trauma informed and a safe space is created before any deep work is undertaken together.
Sound Healing & Light Language
I use the power of vibration to facilitate non-verbal healing that works with you, your physical & subtle bodies, on an energetic and cellular level. I use sound bowls, drums, rattles and my voice (including channeled medicine songs and light language).
Card Readings
Oracle cards are symbolic tools that offer practical, heart centered advice. Working with my Spirit guides, I use cards to receive intuitive guidance for your life. Guidance is direct and always delivered with love to serve your souls evolution.
Shadow Work
I’m not one to shy away from shadow work and just speak of love and light.The shadow is all that we do not see within ourselves, that which isn’t yet in our conscious awareness. Darkness holds so much richness within it and the only way we can shift through uncomfortable feelings is by feeling them. I use the tools mentioned above to assist you in this work. Together we can face whats true for you and help you heal to call more expansiveness into your life. There's no hiding here and all that is reveled to us will be held in love. This work is heavily influenced by my own experience of Generalized Anxiety Disorder and a 2 year long Dark Night of the Soul experience which initiated me into this healing work.
Ceremonial Cacao
I work with the beautiful medicine of cacao to facilitate deeper heart opening experiences for my clients. Cacao is a ceremonial grade chocolate that has not been heat treated and therefore has powerful medicinal properties and a high nutrient concentration. When taken in ceremonial doses the theobromine in the cacao facilitates a heart opening experience which is a powerful way to call more healing into our lives. Dance is often used to create a deeply embodied experience while communing with the energy of Mama Cacao. I use ethically source cacao from Lake Atitlan, Guatemala. You can find out more here
Art Therapy
Art and creativity are powerful healing forces. I often invite my clients to draw or creatively express their emotions during our sessions to facilitate a deeper release and clearer insight.
Journalling
Writing is an essential way to gain clarity and understanding in our lives. It's a powerful healing tool that allows us to reflect on experiences and integrate them.
