I offer an integrated path to healing and discovery using a variety of techniques appropriate to your needs/goals and within your comfort zone:
- dialogue – “traditional” conversation-based techniques
- planned experiential – “homework assignments” you would report back on
- guided experiential – I would coach you through an exercise and observe
- receptive experiential – I would provide you with a sensory (touch) experience
- interactive experiential – I would provide you with practice, e.g. role play, or actual experience
I use a holistic approach, integrating appropriate elements from:
- coaching and counselling
- massage
- re-enactments and role-play
- yoga and meditation
- personal fitness training
- sexuality coaching
- Tantra, Secular Buddhism and other spiritual paths
- and many other sources
Sessions are available in a variety of configurations to suit your needs and preferences:
- Coaching is available by e-mail, Skype, telephone or in-person
- In-person experiential sessions are available in my office or in your home*.
- 1-on-1
- 1-on-2 – I work with you and your partner
- 2-on-1 – I and a female practitioner work with you
- 2-on-2 – I and a female practitioner work with you and your partner
If you’re already in therapy or working with a healing professional, I could be your surrogate partner, providing you with practical experiences to support your healing process. Essentially, they would continue helping you as they are now, and I would provide experiences (for example, mindful touch, a.k.a. sacred touch) to help you in your goals, much like a physiotherapist would help you recover from a physical injury.
For in-person experiential sessions, I recommend 2 hours, and 90 minutes is the minimum session time. Simple coaching sessions can be as short as 60 minutes if you prefer.
