you hold the key

You are so welcome here.
What would be the gift that you’d like to receive for yourself? 

Some of the situations I assist with:

– A big transition that keeps on lingering and draining energy.
– Feeling alone, disconnected, lost, ashamed, perpetually unheard, exhausted, stuck.
– Anxiety about the world. Ongoing confusion. Feeling behind. 
– Not taking up space. Not being able to use voice and/or breathe easily. 
– Experiencing a repeating dynamic and not being able to make a lasting shift.
– Getting tangled up, lost in actions of others and life circumstances.
– Having a decision to make and no clarity. Mistrust of self and own feelings. 
– Physical symptoms that persist.

My Approach:

– Be held; in the messy, in the tough, in anger, in celebration,.. in all expression.
– Honesty; honouring the biggest and the smallest truths shared.
– Clean effort, clean balance. Clarity of roles and energy. 
– Open up the flow of life where it’s in imbalance, not force or discipline.
– Working with the body and the nervous system, not against.
– Work in layers, at the pace of each client.
– Every person belongs. Every person has their own true place.
– Real life, not theory.

We inherit and carry in our bodies and in our lives many patterns and dynamics, and some we pick up along the path. And yet, not all of them we need to stay loyal to or carry forever, many could be let go or transformed. Even the ones that feel like ‘the only way’ most of the time aren’t truly permanent. 

I’ve been walking this road of assisting others for 10+ years and I am grateful to my teachers, clients, ancestors, therapists and the lands I get to work on & with.  

My current offerings include:

  • Family Constellation session – to look at your bigger system, the energy flow, the unconscious loyalties, the soul contracts; to unravel, to hear oneself, to hear what lives deep in you, to exhale, to witness, to reclaim, to feel what has been tucked away, suppressed, excluded, hiding, not welcomed, hurt. We look for where the “non-movement” lives, and look for opening and spaciousness and free life energy expression. 
  • Emergent Exploration session – a dive into “I don’t know” and an exploration of possibilities. This may be about discovering your path, expressing the suppressed, finding clarity, surrendering, getting angry, receiving,.. many possibilities. The session is about discovery of your inner wellbeing; no pre-set format, we will follow your system and needs. 
  • Personal Ceremony – a full day of being held and cared for in your processes. Address your intention, receive, be with yourself, for yourself while having guidance, support. Rituals to assist the freeing and weaving of energy, extra resourcing. Rest, explore, release, and celebrate self and inner power and wisdom.
    It may be for deep rest, for intentional transitions and transformations in life, for chapters to close, for recentering, recallibration, and rebirth into self in the Now, facing forward into Life rather than the past. Deeply personal, all designed for your unique path, needs, expressions and experiences. 

No process is the same, and each is a journey, and I am here to be in service to you and your system. May you receive the resources you are looking for.

Ceremony ~ sacred swaddling ~ closing ritual

A beautiful and powerful day of rituals and processes of bringing in resources, being held, being care for. For cleansing, calling back parts of self, acknowledgments, death of old, closing of a chapter. It's a rebirth, a transition into who you are today, soul restoration, reclamation, celebration. Soak in beauty, in care. Find "yes's" to yourself and your own life and abilities.

Family & Soul Constellations ~ Field Therapy ~ interGenerational healing ~ relational healing

Each of us is a full system. Our bodies, our DNA, our hearts, our 'field' hold information of many generations. Unprocessed emotions, traumas, entanglements, excluded parts can come through as pains, repeating patterns and seemingly unexplainable challenges in our lives.

Everyone is 'designed' for love flow

The nature of what drives me has never changed – I believe it can be better for all of us, individually and collectively, and we have incredible beauty and potential within. SO MUCH beauty and potential! But so much of it is hidden, covered up, distorted, hasn’t been nourished or welcomed. And it makes a huge difference if there’s even 1 caring person to give us space, to help us look in the true depths of ourselves, to orient to new possibilities in life, assist us to hear our own inner knowing.

Often it’s about having the extra space, extra resources to witness from a new point and then releasing what’s been put onto us or taken on by us unconsciously; it’s about going deeper into the essence of who we are, allowing the gifts and truth of ourselves to be seen, accepted, trusted and shared.

I am here to accompany, to help others feel supported and connected to themselves so they can shed, release, express, feel, bloom, be in this world as they are meant to. 

Dream journeys have always been a part of my life. I’ve been learning from and experiencing ceremonies through dreams, Indigenous peoples, classes with Taya Shopen,  Naoli Vinaver, Daan Van Kampenhout. And Constellations work with many teachers, including Sarah Peyton, Elena Veselago, Francesca Mason-Boring.

Relationships

We can look at your human relationships, with yourself or others, or lack of quality interactions, or at your relationship with your voice, creativity, money, jobs, housing, taking space, sexuality, anxiety, depression, love, brain,..

Physical Experiencing

What in your body is asking for attention? Is there an ache, unexplainable pain or illness, stress, numbness, disconnect, darkness, grief, anxiety, unfulfilled knowing or something else that lives in your body? What is your body storing that can be released or made peace with in a new way?

Life flow

Feeling stuck or on a path that doesn't feel 'right' or so incredibly hard? What are you yearning for? Could there be more flow? Where can there be more ease? What could have more love or freedom? What needs space?

Who is this for? What am I even talking about?!

Individual process

Every session is unique. I can’t tell you here what your process is going to be like.
I will support you in what arises. We will journey together, with me holding space.

This applies to both, Constellations sessions and Ceremony days. We explore the wisdom in you, your body and your larger system. 

What does your system need? What do you allow for yourself?

Experiential practices but mind has questions too

Common Questions

Family Constellations is a phenomenological modality that isn’t so well known in North America (yet). And Ceremonial Rituals can feel very new to many too, while they’ve been practiced by our ancestors for many generations. 
Both might sound confusing and even hard to believe in, at first. 
And the beauty is that both are very experiential; you get to feel the shifts in your own being and body, and that’s what we base the processes on.

No. There’s generally not a lot of talking, unless that’s an important part for you. Bring an issue in your life, a struggle, a desire or a feeling and we will look as what’s affecting your system and that challenge.

There’s gentleness to this process that allows some very profound places in us to be given attention and flow.

It can be almost anything, whether it’s a struggle in a personal relationship, with a family member, or with money or career, or health, or if you have an ongoing feeling, like guilt or shame, or anger, or if you have a decision to make that you need more clarity with.
I do not facilitate Business Constellations (you can bring a question about your personal position towards being a business but I don’t work on movements within a business structure). 

Every process is unique, based on the client. That said, in Constellations we work with layers. It can be, and usually is, deep potent work that has ripple effects in many areas of life. And from how interconnected many layers are in us, even a small shift can bring a lot of change.
Sometimes it is about a perspective change, sometimes it’s seeing and naming something that has been excluded for a long time, and sometimes it is about unraveling and letting go, and stepping into something new, and at times it’s a huge fundamental shift. It’s your journey and I am here to help.

No. We can look at your family system without them needing to be there (or alive, or known).

We are working with the Knowing Field. It contains all information about us, what hasn’t been processed or acknowledged in our Family System and other systems that affect us. We are looking from the systemic perspective and how elements at play are in relation to each other. Once the hidden is visible, we can focus on restoring the natural flow of energy in the system.

In a group setting, members of the circle get asked to represent the different elements in a Constellation. In an individual session, I will use objects to represent and shift the attention between the important parts of the Constellation. 
Both can be very effective so truly all about your comfort and preference.

Online sessions are very potent as well. We will meet via Zoom.
You get to be in your own chosen environment. Online sessions require steady internet, access to a microphone and a camera. 
In person sessions may possibly feel a bit more vulnerable for some but they also tend to bring a lot of special tenderness that comes from a physical proximity. And of course, certain movements become physically possible, like standing right next to a person or holding someone’s hand vs online naming that movement & making space for it energetically.

For 1-on-1, the bookings are for a 2hr time slot. Sometimes big movements come rather quickly. We will finish when there’s a natural completion, which may be less than 2hr, with the 2hr max for the session.
