Unconscious Patterns Create Our Suffering
After thousands of hours working with people in groups and individually, I have noticed that suffering causes us to live out of alignment. A lot of time can be spent focusing on the everyday problems and frustrations and the story that is playing out in our everyday lives. However, the hard work, the real work is to bring awareness to the unconscious patterns that are playing out underneath the suffering. To use a gardening metaphor we must remove the weed and all its roots, rather than just cutting off the top of the weed.
Exploring Emotional Trauma
I get frustrated when I hear stories of people who have spent a lot of time and money and haven't experienced any major shifts in their everyday life. While traditional therapies can often be a slow and intentional process, they may not bring the results that help us to incrementally move forward in a way that makes us feel empowered. The world is changing very fast and some of the old ways aren't matching up with the new paradigm that is emerging. Some of the old systems are created on theories that don't include focusing on love, purpose, passion or the gifts that are frozen or suppressed by our emotional trauma. I believe that we have to explore the patterns that are rooted in the emotional trauma that we have experienced in our lives and have an opportunity to share our stories. It is the underlying patterns that are driving our behaviours.
A client shared this with me. "I feel I have made more progress since knowing you than in 27 yrs of therapy, I finally feel I'm moving forward."
Human Design A Spiritual Tool
Enter Human Design, a spiritual tool which reveals a blueprint of who you were designed to be in this life. On an even deeper level, it also reveals the patterns that are playing out in our lives and shows a clear path on how to transcend them. Embedded in your chart are your core wound, your hero's journey, your gifts, your purpose and so much more. What may have been a mystery, can be a clear source of guiding you forward with understanding and clarity. Human Design guides you back to your uniqueness.
Intuitive Counselling
I am a blend of elder, life coach, and counsellor without the letters behind my name. I am very passionate about helping people see themselves and their patterns clearly. That comes in the form of something that is often missing in our culture. A connection to elder energy. When I was a kid I would stop and talk to the seniors on my paper route, while speaking about what I was wanting to do in my life, they would speak their truth and it often stung. That sting of truth would eventually guide me on my path, even though I didn't want to admit it to them. I now call this "Fierce Honesty" and although it may sound harsh it is actually rooted in love and care. Fierce honesty is one of the principles that guides my work, you can find the rest in the image at the bottom of this page. My #1 passion and zone of genius is working with people individually and in groups. I was trained as a life coach in 2006 and have been on my own journey of personal growth since 1999. In Human Design terms, I am a 6/2 Manifesting Generator with Emotional Authority. The 6 in my profile refers to the journey I have gone through in life. I had to live and experience my life step by step in order to transform it into compassionate wisdom. I use my lived experiences to guide others on their journey. I use Human Design as a powerful tool to guide you on your journey. Human Design is often presented in a very abstract way, one of my goals is to make Human Design accessible and easy to understand.
