Group Work
COUPLES THERAPY
Relationships present their own challenges as two or more people come together with their own values, beliefs, and at times baggage in regard to relating to one another.
What becomes essential in couples therapy is that all individuals involved have a clear and transparent means of communication where there is empathy and understanding for both/all parties. Often it is beneficial to know that the dynamic we find ourselves in offers a blueprint for our growth. We bring to our romantic relationships unfinished business, and often we project this onto our partners. Understanding the role we play, the reflection that is present, and what we are bringing to the relationship makes for improved intimacy, enhanced creativity, fun, and playfulness.
Couples therapy is for homosexual, heterosexual, and polyamorous relationships. LGBTQ friendly.
WOMEN’S WORK
We are facing current times where old paradigms and structures are falling apart and there is a calling for the feminine voice. Embracing our true authentic selves has never been more essential. Finding our unique expression, inner erotic creature and true worth and value without apology is our birth right. The feminine nature is powerful, mysterious and loving.
Women can blossom when they experience the collective and sisterhood brings transformation. In our individual selves we can be bitchy, gossipy and insecure which is of course a terrible waste of our potential. Women's work allows us to look at and expose our shadow, own our insecurities, humiliations and dark spots while supporting and empowering our core assertive selves.
We use breath work, exposure work, meditation, inquiry and movement and we often meet in groups of 20 plus in person and online. Bespoke smaller ongoing groups are also available.
FAMILY CONSTELLATIONS
FC is a systemic approach which can be used with persistent and repetitive issues that we may be facing in our daily lives.
Family constellations embraces trans-generational unresolved experiences/events that replay through generations. Epigenetic research now shows that adverse events, traumatic experiences and difficult situations such as murders, abuse, wars, loss, slavery (and many more) ripple through the generations and play out in the lives of family members whose ancestors suffered, were abused or were abusers and/or committed foul play in some way.
Through FC usually done in groups but also individually, hidden entanglements, exclusions and wrong placement of individuals in families which cause suffering can be highlighted and processed often bringing a sense of peace, clarity and healing to an individual and to their family system.
GROUP THERAPY
Group therapy offers the potential of being seen, held, and validated by others. The group setting can trigger family and school dynamics which are unresolved and cause difficult relations in other areas of our lives. With self-responsibility and a willingness to grow and change, vulnerabilities are exposed and respected with compassion in order to support evolution and the emerging qualities.
The group holds a confidential and caring space where we can be understood and valued often in new and unexpected ways.
