Holistic Psychotherapy/Soul Lightening Acupressure for Adults – 80 minutes $225:
A Soul Lightening Acupressure session addresses and transforms complex emotional, physical, and spiritual issues. During a session, we will begin talking while seated, then you will lie on a massage table face up and fully clothed. I will apply gentle firm pressure to pairs of acupressure points while you share what comes up for you and we will look at it together. These sessions work best in an ongoing series as each acupressure session is more powerful than the last as your body’s energy builds a relationship with and responds to the work.
I recommend coming weekly for at least 10 sessions as you create a relationship with the work, your Higher Helpers and Guides, your body and its wisdom, your personality parts like your inner critic, and become clear about what needs healing and transformation at this time. Seeing your life from a positive growth mindset and your body, soul, Higher Helpers, and the world around you as sources of wisdom is a new way of looking at things and coming weekly allows deep practice to permanently shift your way of being with yourself. You may then choose to come every other week as you are better able to connect with your inner wisdom between sessions.
Most people engage in these sessions as an alternative to talk therapy. Many times people have been in years of talk therapy and have identified their patterns and challenges and want more support to transform them and clear trauma and heal childhood wounds permanently. Others engage in this work instead of talk therapy because they want to bring their whole selves to the table – mind, body, and spirit. Clients have expressed relief and joy to be able to bring their whole selves into session – their dreams, body pains, visions, past lives, relationship patterns, thoughts, spirit guides, etc. Bringing our whole selves helps us be more alive.
Some people incorporate this work with other types of healing they are doing and come in every other week, monthly or as needed.
Holistic Psychotherapy/Soul Lightening Acupressure for Children and Teens – 55 minutes $150:
Children and teens are well-suited to interventions that address their whole beings and their energy body and nervous system directly. Determining what is best suited to each person, I use play therapy, art therapy, sand tray therapy and discussion to bring up what needs to be addressed and begin to shift it, then use the direct energy work of Soul Lightening Acupressure to support the body to come into balance, get grounded and centered, and clear unhealthy energy patterns and strengthen healthy ones. I incorporate techniques for mindfulness, body and nervous system awareness, grounding and centering. The 55 minute sessions are best suited to young people.
I also offer Parent-Child Sessions which can be best for young children where both parent and child are present in the beginning of the session while the parent receives a Seva Stress Release session and the child plays or engages in the session by helping to hold acupressure points. The child will benefit from the energy shifts that occur in the room and with their parent. The child will then receive their own session that will be customized for their needs while the parent either stays in the room or waits outside depending on what is best for them both.
Seva Stress Release – 25 minutes $75:
The Seva session was developed to give the most powerful healing intervention to address stress and shock in a brief session. During a Seva session you will enter a deep state of relaxation and may touch into your deeper wisdom as I use a series of acupressure points and verbal affirmations. This type of session is good for those who need to relax and receive nurturing and healing and may have trouble doing so. This is a good option for those who don’t have a lot of time in any given day to dedicate to their healing, those who need healing from stress or shock, or those who do not want to do verbal processing. Seva can also be incorporated into a longer session.
Some people choose a Seva session to first experience this work or give a gift certificate to a loved one.
In-Home Sessions for Post-Partum Mothers – 50-80 minutes:
Birth is an intense experience and I’m offering in-home sessions within the Petaluma area to facilitate recovery from the birth process and adjustment to one’s next phase in life. Too often birth can be traumatic and processing the experience and releasing traumatic energy is so important to recovery and returning to one’s vitality. I have learned through my own experience of motherhood how important it is for a mother to feel grounded, nurtured, balanced, and centered and how deeply beneficial that is to her children and those around her. Sessions can be given while you are seated even while holding or nursing your baby or in bed depending on whatever suits the situation best. Sessions can include talking and processing, can address specific symptoms, or you can stay quiet and receive to fully focus on receiving nurturing.
Individual or group sessions for Wellness Events, Staff Retreats, Staff Appreciation Days:
I offer group sessions where a group of people rest back in their chairs or on the floor and receive a 20 minute Seva Stress Release session energetically while I stay at the front of the room and give the session to everyone at the same time. The recipients rest back into a deep state of calm while their energy systems begin to flow in a healthier way, allowing old stresses to release and new insight and connection to occur. It feels like a very deep meditation and afterwards people often feel much lighter and relaxed as if they have had a great massage. Clearing old energy and tension allows us to move forward with more clarity and ease. I can provide these sessions remotely as well as in person.
I also offer individual hands-on Seva Stress Release sessions for groups. Each session is 20 minutes, 2 sessions offered per hour. The recipient lies fully clothed on a massage table while I gently hold a series of acupressure points on their body.
I do not accept insurance at this time but can provide a super bill for you to give to your insurance carrier for reimbursement when applicable.
