Aspects of Shamanic Healing are Crystal Healing, Egg Healing, Ancestral Healing (healing the Lineage), Psychic Surgery, Soul Retrieval.  Journeying with the Drum and Fire Ceremonies are also very much part of Shamanism.

Shamanic Healing can only work if you come with an open mind, an open heart and are willing to heal.

It is not about condoning bad behavior, but learning not to judge it, and seeking ways to resolve it amicably and professionally.

Clients can come occasionally for an individual session if the other person is not up to it or if they just want to talk about a personal issue that may be affecting the relationship.  Certain techniques are used during the sessions and couples are also given homework to do to help them continue to make progress.  Couples then let the therapist know how they have got on with each follow up session.

There are many reason why couples seek therapy.  Counselling does not guarantee that the relationship will work but it will help couples to make positive change and give them a better chance of making the relationship a success.  They need to be committed to putting in the work and implementing the changes they agreed to make whilst in therapy.  They need to be equally committed to making it work.  Sometimes it may help to seek individual therapy if there are serious underlying issues affecting the relationship before commencing couples therapy.

The benefits of couples therapy include:

• Improved communication
• A better understanding of emotions and their underlying causes
• Learning to love each other unconditionally
• Restoring romance & intimacy
• Being better able to support one another
• Regain lost trust
• Provides a safe, non-judgmental and confidential space in which to talk and gradually heal
• Learning to respond rather than react to situations
• A greater chance of survival of the relationship.

My Online Sessions are provided through Zoom and are password protected. You will need to have set-up a Zoom account before our meeting begins.

For your online therapy to go smoothly, we recommend:

Dependence on a good internet connection.

Clients are comfortable with technology.

Clients need to have a private space to ensure confidentiality and freedom to speak their mind.

A comfortable chair to sit on with the screen at a suitable level so that their face can be seen.

A laptop is more suitable than a smart phone and needs to have a built in camera or a camera attached. It also needs to have a microphone.

Phones need to be on silent.

Body language is not evident, therefore the therapist may not pick up as easily on a person’s unease or discomfort, and the client may not pick up as easily on the therapists own body language which can offer comfort and confidence in the therapeutic setting.

It is important to be aware of both the advantages and disadvantages before committing to this approach.

Whilst all care is taken to ensure confidentiality, the internet is always open to hackers who steal information and use it for criminal activity. It is therefor advisable to have Internet & PC Security while partaking in Online Therapy.
