Spirituality

What is spirituality?

Spirituality can be a powerful approach to healing. Spirituality does not necessarily refer to religion, though religion may also be spiritual.

Spirituality in the context of healing may be incorporating the help of a Higher Power, spirit guides, angels, or whatever your personal beliefs use for support.

For some it may be prayer, yoga, meditation, intuition, nature, or metaphysics.

How do you use spirituality in therapy?

Many clients choose my services because of their strong spiritual beliefs and they want to be able to express these beliefs without being judged.

Some people enjoy metaphysical concepts, such as the law of attraction. Many of these concepts parallel psychology in that they focus on the power of the mind. For example, one spiritual concept states, “what we focus on expands.” Cognitive-behavioral therapy teaches people to shift cognitive distortions (negative thinking patterns) to more adaptive ways of thinking (positive thoughts). Spiritually speaking, thoughts have energy and if we focus on negative things, the negative things will expand. Likewise, if we focus on what is possible in life, those things will expand.

What if I have my own religious beliefs?

I am open to all beliefs and support you according to your own belief system. I am open and receptive to listening to your beliefs. I can also help you explore solutions to your pain points from an intuitive perspective.

What type of people enjoy using spirituality as part of their therapy session?

Usually people who love to see things from the perspective that we are intuitively guided by the Universe or Spirit. You may be a person who is interested in the teachings of Abraham Hicks (aka Law of Attraction). You may have a strong passion for prayer and for being aligned to a higher purpose. You may have an interest in astrology, tarot, reiki, psychic readings, past life regression, or energy healing.

Or you may be a person who is wanting to become more spiritual and is intrigued to learn more about it.
