Soul Sessions

Integration is a re-owning of your fragmented self. During socialization and traumatic events that occur in childhood, your psyche splits in order to prioritize survival. When we are children, we are in our heart feeling stages and absorbing the world. Our brain isn’t fully developed and thus we are not operating from our mental mind until later on.

For example; In order to ensure a positive connection to your caregivers, friends and relatives you split away from yourself the parts of you that are not ‘allowed’ in your culture, home and society. These aspects can be viewed as negative or positive aspects by us. The parts that you suppress in order to be viewed as good, survive and to belong to one’s family, culture and society are what is known as the ‘shadow self'.’ Therefore, in order to reclaim these parts of yourself, we will travel to your shadow and by mentally, emotionally and physically processing their unique thoughts, feelings and behaviors you will begin the process of integration.

Living in a fragmented state is what causes you to be stuck when making decisions, some examples are; not being able to follow through on things you want to accomplish, unable to speak up when you have an opinion, not having passion for life, inability to have loving and fulfilling relationships, struggling with health issues, not eating, sleeping or caring for yourself, etc… the list is endless.

Integration of your suppressed aspects is a journey that brings you closer and closer to self love, self trust and to an understanding of your unique self within society and the greater universe at large. 

The two main ways I offer for integration are Shadow work and Parts work.

Shadow work:
I am certified in The Completion Process, a shadow work process created by the spiritual influencer, Teal Swan. Her process is very deep, thorough and aims to reintegrate parts of your psyche that are stuck, hurt and suffering. This is done by accessing the emotional body and following an emotional trigger to the depths of where the trauma point first occurred. This is a somatic process, where you will feel multiple emotions and sensations through your body. You will also be listening to your thoughts, worries, fears etc. There are several parts to this process until a full resolution occurs. I will be with you through every step until you land into relief and resolution. Not every session will end on feeling positive as diving into the shadow is often a dark and painful journey. However I will ensure that you have reached a place where you and I both feel it is safe and right for us to end.

Parts work:
This is a process where you will speak to two aspects of yourself that are polarized. These parts are opposites and are often where you feel like you are swaying between two opposing parties. Generally you will be more identified with one and that is the part you are calling your ‘personality’, just how are, just how you think, operate etc. Meeting the opposite of parts that you aren’t identified with is where your hidden truths are buried, this is where you will make the unconscious, conscious. Parts work is an absolute game changer for places you feel stuck, can’t make a decision, feel contradictory and unsure of yourself etc. The way that I facilitate parts work is unique but similar to voice dialogue or Internal Family Systems.
