Subtle yet powerful medicine
In addition to being an integrative psychologist I am a certified energy medicine practitioner and Reiki master. I practice using a number of different modalities in which I have been trained.
My connection to this work had been a lifelong journey supported by 30+ years of meditation, contemplative study, and spiritual practice.
What is Energy Medicine?
Energy medicine is a complimentary health care practice, which has been found to enhance the body’s ability to heal itself physically, reduce emotional and mental stress and fatigue, and increase overall wellbeing and balance.
While energy medicine takes many forms among different practitioners, it can be described as the process by which a person becomes a conduit for life force energy and works with that energy at a subtle level to restore, replenish, and rebalance one’s system at a physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual level.
As a practitioner, I am not using my own personal energy to do the work. Rather, I am responsible for moving my individual consciousness aside and opening up my intuitive sense realm to guidance and the allowance of healing frequencies to be channeled through me. The experience is always remarkable and I am so grateful to do this work.
Theory of Treatment
Stress, trauma, and illness restrict the natural flow of energy through the body. Developed from the idea that the physical body and energetic bodies possess the same electromagnetic energies as the Universe, energy medicine helps people attune to this vital energy. By restoring the flow of life force energy through the body, energy medicine rejuvenates the body’s ability to relax and, therefore, supports the body’s ability to heal itself at a physical and subtle level.
Although one session has many beneficial effects, long-term imbalances in the body sometimes require multiple treatments in order to allow the body to reach the level of relaxation necessary to bring the system back into balance. Improvement often requires commitment on the client’s part (e.g., willingness to make lifestyle changes) in order to fully benefit from treatment(s).
What to Expect
We will begin with some intuitive counsel during which we will mutually identify the core issues needing to be addressed.
Clients relax on a massage table, fully clothed, while I lay hands on the body or work in the field around you. Whatever you prefer.
You may experience sensations or you may simply feel relaxed. Whatever you sense is perfect!
Touch, breathing, vocal or instrumental sound may be used to move energy. There will be time to debrief sessions.
