Integrating Awareness into Our Lives

I am a licensed bodyworker with a diploma in hypnosis, in practice since 2011. My sessions are remote, and they are built around guided meditation and mind-body work.

I am trained and certified in a wide range of approaches, and between them they open up a great deal of ground. What we do with that is yours to direct. Nothing happens in a session that you have not agreed to, and you can pause, slow down or stop at any point.

What you take from this work depends in large part on your own readiness — on your willingness to look at things, and to make changes for yourself. Nothing is promised or guaranteed, and no particular outcome or timing can be predicted. You will know when something has shifted. It isn't something I measure for you.

You remain the author of your own experience. I serve as a guide, and I tell you what I observe, drawing on my professional experience, my training and my intuition.

I am not a licensed mental health professional, physician or counsellor. I do not diagnose and I do not treat. This work sits alongside medical or psychological care, never in place of it.

Developed by Dr John Thie in 1973. I trained in person in Puerto Rico, in classes attended by Matthew Thie, who co-wrote the current edition of the work with his father.

Muscle testing used as biofeedback — I apply pressure, you resist, and I read the response — alongside balancing work with the meridians. It is non-diagnostic by design, and I use it as a way of checking as I go rather than assuming.

Developed by Kerry D'Ambrogio, DOM, and taught through the D'Ambrogio Institute, including the distance version I trained in. Works with patterns of tension and strain a person has been carrying — physical, mental and emotional — and with how they hold together.

Because we work over video there are two ways to tell it is doing something: what you feel, and what I can see in how you are holding yourself.

A way of reaching material the conscious mind cannot easily get to — where ordinary reflection has gone as far as it can, and understanding something hasn't helped.

It works through sensory memory. The meditation is not written beforehand and it is not read to you — I build it as we go, around whichever sense you work in most strongly. Some people see, some hear, some work in smell.

The hypnosis training is from the Sociedad Puertorriqueña de Hipnosis Terapéutica. How I use it here is my own.

The practical end of the work: what you want, what is in the way, and what the next step actually is.

The structure comes from NLP, trained as part of the certification — ways of shifting where attention sits, and simple written exercises that keep the thinking part of the mind engaged when feeling threatens to take over.

I also pay attention to more than what is said. A change in expression often arrives before the words do, and when I notice something I will say so — you are always free to tell me I have read it wrong.

Works directly with what a person believes about themselves and what is possible for them.

Particularly the beliefs held so long they are no longer noticed as beliefs — the ones that feel like facts.

Works with beliefs in general — not only what a person believes about themselves, but what they hold to be true about other people, about how things work, about what is possible.

The method is a shift of perspective: coming to see a belief as something you are holding rather than something that is simply true. From there it can be set down, and another one taken up in its place.

It is most useful with the beliefs held so long they are no longer noticed as beliefs — the ones that feel like facts.
