Creative & Sandtray Therapies

 

 

 

The journey of counselling, therapy, soul healing and creative therapies all lead to one thing… coming home to yourself.  .

When we turn to face our shadows with a hand holding, something subtle happens, the universe shifts, light  floods in,  past traumas and fears sinks to a lesser voice within your heart.

Come when you are ready.

Online & Face to face.

 

Counselling & Psychotherapy

Within a safe, respectful space I offer deep embodied psychotherapy and counselling for you to explore your needs and wishes in life. Based on over 35  years training as psychotherapist, counsellor and healer we travel the journey of growth and transformation.  Although I love to offer long term therapy over a period of time, I am also trained in shorter term counselling if this is your need.

The crucible of therapy holds the stirring of the pot through which you sip your soup of life.  It is a place of exploration, emotion, sense and integration.  Coming back home to yourself is our task together. The pot becomes a more conscious, authentic container ready to reveal your true magnificence.

Our embodied senses inform how we live on this world…as tiny babies we landed, vulnerable, open, ready to grow… often our reception was not met with enough love, holding, attention, right relationship.. as we grew, our bodies became stuck or fixed in certain ways… our psyche reaching out to try meeting our own needs… Our beliefs took on different forms, not nourishing us,  the love, life,  joy we need.. we struggled in relationships, or felt dissatisfied in expression, unfulfilled in life… perhaps old fears surfaced, or new griefs and transitions shake up our lives…

When we are ready, the call to come home can be heard within asking to be recognised…finally we are ready.

I incoroporate embodiment exercises, empathic explorations, creative techniques and trauma-based skills, alongside the deeper process of psychotherapy.  Your needs inform all our work together. If you are highly sensitive, creative, holding past trauma, or simply ready to grow, I am ready to meet you for the journey of a lifetime.

Soul Therapy 

Soul Therapy integrates shamanic therapy, healing, mindfulness and embodiment work alongside psychological therapy. For over 25 years, this work has touched many sensitive souls, and I am honoured when asked to meet you at this level of connection. It is a profound path to finding your own way home.

I am offering a new block of eight sessions, alternating two hour soul therapy with one hour psychotherapy to integrate all that is experienced  – Eight sessions will be a transformational experience and can be experienced over a period of months rather than weekly.  Contact me for more details.

A two hour deep soul session sets the tone for further ongoing growth. Having this first time together releases a kind of map for the journey ahead. My commitment is to your transformation and together we decide what shape that may take.  We weave a path that works for you and each one is different.

When complex stress, constant obstacles, or challenging transitions occur, or a sense of your life’s path has somehow been thrown off course,  soul therapy can deeply touch your core self, to enable new life to emerge, or old stagnant parts of yourself to dissolve.

During the two hours session, we will call on hidden realms, shamanic guides, nature elements, healing, and seership together with my knowledge of our energy bodies and spiritual practice. We may also explore some tantric embodied exercises and be given guidance of how the further work can be shaped.

This ancient form of healing can be especially helpful for ancestral clearing, unblocking entrenched trauma, releasing stuck life force energy and transforming chronic illnessess which affect body and soul. It is also possible to ask specific questions on guidance at these times.

Sometimes the sacred drum or rattle are used –  sometimes silence or words and sounds emerge. Traditional shamanic techniques such as soul retrieval, power animal retrieval, extractions or psychopomp work may inform this journey.

We touch the essence of life during our time together. With the connection we create, balance, harmony, hidden radiance and new vitality can emerge.

I have offered soul therapy throughout the UK and internationally via Skype or Zoom for over thirty years.  For many years I attended Chalice Well Healing Weekend in Glastonbury UK each summer, where I was able to reach hundreds more people.

Fees :

Block of eight sessions –  £700 or   4 x    £200

Individual Fees  : One two hour soul therapy session  –    £150

One hour : £100.00 per hour

My experience of this work is deep and profoundly moving and the ripples of this can still be felt a week later. It feels very holistic work, connecting body, mind and spirit.

‘I have known Anna for about 25 years. Over that time, I have had about 8 or 9 sessions of the work she now calls Soul Therapy, which I have found to be invaluable – particularly at times of transition. I am very grateful to Anna (and her guides) for the healing, support and guidance. It has been a great help in my unfolding journey.’

Sandtray & Creative Therapy

Sandtray therapy is a unique form of creative expression for growth – begun with Dora Kalf, a Jungian Analyst, in the 1950’s, it is now recognised as a highly effective therapy for deeper psychotherapeutic growth. I have been offering Sandtray Therapy for over 25 years and train other professionals in this medium.

Using the tools of the sand box and miniatures placed within, a creative world of expression opens up. It is similar to dream therapy, yet profoundly embodied in experience. 

Touching sand can be soothing, enlivening, sensual – wet or dry on our skin evoking memory, form… placing figures and objects which then evoke responses, stories, feelings, solutions.

All of human existence can be placed in the sandtray, and I never fail to be humbled at the depth of this exploration.

Alongside the sandtray, I offer other creative mediums such as drawing  and art making.   These support our psyche when words cannot help.  Using our hidden creative forces, we can discover feelings, solutions, needs, which normally remain hidden.  Art supports us in finding an archetypal, ancient language of growth and wellbeing.

 

Fees : £75 per session. I offer  a sliding scale for those on reduced income, and a slight reduction for four weeks payment in advance.

 

“Anna has a profound understanding of Sandtray Therapy. Her own personal experience of life, skills and experience as a therapist adds to the rich dimensions of this work.  Thank you Anna.”
