Holistic Counselling

Holistic Counselling is face to face with a focus on helping the client become aware of where they carry their feelings in their body. The client is given the space, permission and guidance to travel deeper into their core feelings and underlying patterns during the session.  When appropriate, the client is regressed back to significant points in the past, possibly even a past life, and then guided and supported to bring healing and closure to the associated wounds, hence releasing the locked pain from the body. 

In Holistic Counselling, the counsellor holds her connection to the client’s Soul essence and limitless power and truly believes in each client's ability to heal themselves. The counsellor also honors that every individual needs to feel safe, liked, cared for, deeply listened to, believed and supported before they can open emotionally to another human being.

The healing power of a person sharing their story with a caring listener is immense.  When a client’s challenges and related feelings are shared in a space that is truly empathetic, spacious, honoring and sacred, true transformation takes place.

Counselling is a process that helps people to better understand their life experiences, responses and actions while increasing awareness of their inner world and it's influence over relationships, both past and present.  Counselling looks at the whole human being and the many complex factors that have contributed to making every person unique. It is a learning process of discovery and helps the client to understand in the mind the why and wherefore of what is happening in your life and provides the mechanisms for patients to find solutions.

Counselling empowers the client to better personal understanding, to make clearer choices and to achieve a more lasting independence.   It is a process, which, through active listening and other tools, facilitates a journey of self-discovery, revealing mechanisms by which people may empower themselves.
