Counseling

This is a 1 hour session which focuses on discussion and practical exploration of your issues and concerns.  
In this session, we can address physical health problems, explore personal issues and life challenges, or discuss your future plans and the best way to achieve them.
Here, you have an opportunity to express yourself and ‘get things off your chest’ which, in itself, can be very healing and liberating. 
At the same time, we will explore available options and possible solutions, to find the best ways forward, and help you successfully make the changes you desire.

You may require only counseling, and an opportunity to unburden, create new goals and see your life from a different perspective. Or you may benefit from learning more effective ways for dealing with certain difficult situations in your life. Or maybe some herbal or nutritional support is needed for your physical condition. Or there may be certain dietary or lifestyle changes you can make to support healing & change.
This session is all about understanding where you are, clarifying where you want to go, and finding the best way to get there.

I feel that, in most cases, the best results are obtained when you incorporate both counseling and energy work into your healing journey. They enhance one another.
Exploring the issue/s consciously, through counseling, helps you gain greater awareness into the reasons this situation has developed, and be empowered to make practical changes in your life to avoid recurrence. This conscious awareness of your situation, and the outer changes you make, all serve to strengthen the integration of shifts initiated by energy healing work. This is especially true if you’re working through chronic (long-term) physical problems, emotional issues, and complicated life circumstances.

My aims in this session are:
- to gain a clear understanding of your ‘story’… your health history, and the life experiences associated with development of the current issue/s
- to help you step out of ‘confusion’, and find clarity and fresh perspectives in relation to your concerns
- to identify the deeper underlying patterns & causes
- to bring in spiritual guidance and insight, where appropriate, to help expand your understanding of the current situation
- to explore the most appropriate options and define a direction for healing and change, incorporating such support as natural medicines, nutrition, lifestyle & behavioural changes, self-awareness & personal development activities, or energy healing

Where the path to improvement is complex and challenging, I can assist by creating a personalised plan for change, incorporating well-defined goals in small easy steps, along with supportive information and personal activities, to help you make sustainable positive changes over time ... see Practical Change-Plans

 Counseling  plus  Energy Healing combined session
 

This is a 2 & 1/2 hour session, which combines both discussion of the issues and energy work.  
The first hour is devoted to exploration of your physical or emotional problems, and counseling if needed (see details & aims for the ‘consult & counseling’ session), and the remaining hour and a half is devoted to healing work (see details & aims for the ‘energy healing’ session).
A combined session allows us to fully explore your concerns and better understand associated imbalance patterns. It gives us time to explore available options, treatments, and possible solutions, and consider your options for change. It also helps us gain a very clear understanding of where the focus of healing should be placed, in order to have the greatest impact and help you move forward in the most powerful way.

This is a good choice for your first session with me, if you're seeking mainly energy work, as it gives me a chance to become familiar with your history and issue/s, and allows us to get a lot more from your energy healing session. We can then continue later with energy healing-only sessions, if that's your preference.
If you’re working through something over several sessions, you may find that a combined session suits you perfectly and you select it each time, or you may find that sometimes you only feel the need for further energy work, or you only want to explore a new layer more deeply through discussion & counseling.   As you move forward, you can select your next session according to what you need most at the time.

Distant Combined Session … This occurs via phone or skype (voice / video) and incorporates consult & counseling for the first hour, followed by the distant energy healing over the next hour and a half.
