An On-line session

Many of us are working on ourselves and working through things in life. Sometimes we get to a point where we need a little coaching or guidance.

In the years of doing bodywork I have realized that most of the healing comes through releasing old trauma or old beliefs thus changing patterns. This is work that you do internally but sometimes you need some help. By having someone noticing your healing process it shifts. I may be able to offer some tools on how to do things. I may be able to give you a perspective that allows the healing to continue.

As a therapist I am noticing and guiding, then applying whatever healing methods I think appropriate. I am not just noticing what you say, I am noticing the energy around what you say. I am tuning in to the energy patterns of your body. So by tuning into you, the client, energetically I can help walk you forward in your healing process.

You do the healing of yourself. I am offering methods and giving observations that may help you.

What will an on-line treatment be like:

I will ask you to prepare a space for the session that is calm and relaxing for you, one that is private and free of interruptions.

When we start the session we will chat for a bit. I will ask you questions like “what is up for you?”, “what are you hoping for in this treatment?” I am just trying to get a feel for where you are at and what really needs to be worked on.

At some point I will begin with some guided visualization. I may ask you to breathe in a certain way or notice a part of your being. I will give you time to do this. The therapy unfolds in the guided visualization. I don’t follow a script. I just go with what you tell me you are experiencing. Your healing session goes where it needs to go, we walk through it together.

The healing may be on a physical level, I may ask you to be aware of sensations, I may ask you to do some movement.

The healing may be on an emotional level. I may ask you to notice the emotion from different perspectives. I may ask you to notice if the emotion is yours or someone else’s. I will coach you how to do this.

The healing may be energetic. You may notice sensations in the body or see images. I will guide you through this.

The healing may be Spiritual/Shamanic. You may notice a being communicating with you. You may see yourself at a different time(past life). I will guide you through this.

By you answering the questions during the session, your responses moves the treatment forward.

Again each session is different and takes its own path, the healing that needs to come forward that day.

One session or a series of sessions

One session may be enough for what you are working on. Sometimes a series of sessions is optimal. Again, this is your healing. I will tell you what I think is best and you can make your decisions from there.

Scope of Practice

As a therapist, it is important that I know what I can and cannot do. After a session I may suggest that a different type of therapy may be the most effective for what you are working on. I may recommend a certain type of bodywork. I may recommend that seeing a mental health professional is a good idea. If I feel that what you are working on is out of my scope of practice I will need to discontinue seeing you as a client.

I am not a mental health professional.

Confidentiality

As the therapist I will keep everything that you tell me confidential. If I see you outside of a session I will not mention what we have talked about in the session. In my talking with other therapists in a support session if I mention something about your session I will not use names. The only exception to this is if any legal matter arises I must follow the laws.

The Mundane parts of the Therapy

You will need an internet connection. There are many communication platforms available – Skype, FaceTime, Google Chat, Zoom… we can use whatever will work for both of us.

When we set up the appointment I will also ask for your phone number. This is in case the internet connection goes down in the middle of a session we can possibly finish on the phone.

We will need to set up a time for the appointment that works for both of us. I am in Western Australia so we will just figure out the time zones.

The fee is $90 USD for a 90 minute session. Payment can be made through bank transfer, if in Australia, or Paypal. If you do not have Paypal I can send you a bill through them and you can pay with a credit card through them.
