Current treatment practices in psychotherapy and western medicine, often discount the importance of the body and the wisdom that traditional healing techniques hold. These holistic forms of healing include techniques such as reiki, tarot, yoga, chakra and energy work, tapping, acupuncture and many more.

That is why I like to incorporate them all into our work.

These techniques, arguably more relational in nature, are seen as less important due to western standards around performance and symptom management, rather than getting to the root of one’s suffering. Despite this bias, mine and others research confirms that throughout history healers of all forms have existed, and majority of these healers were women or non-binary individuals. These individuals, often called “wise women" would perform rituals to heal individuals’  minds and bodies to reconnect them to their sacred energy or source (the self). Thus, the wisdom of our ancestors and modern Indigenous healers contain a wealth of knowledge and value, that western society has yet to fully understand or embrace. 

Throughout history, humans have tried to understand themselves using different forms of healing. A common theme among these approaches is that when we experience trauma, suffering or other forms of wounding, we become disconnected from the core parts of us, which leads to psychological, emotional, relational and physical distress. Therefore, when this form of soul loss occurs, we are forced to hide parts of ourselves as a form of protection. As a feminist and intuitive healer, I use a holistic feminist depth-oriented approach to healing with my clients to help them uncover and reconnect to the core parts of themselves, so that they can reclaim their divine light within.
