In shamanic healing things are resolved on
a mythical, inner plane and this effects the healing change on the outer plane; the healer is a mediator between the two worlds.
The many, many hours of day-dreaming I spent as a child turned out to be training not "wasted time"!
I learned the techniques of core shamanism in the intensive training
with the Foundation for Shamanic Studies and in a number of workshops, but my deepest inspiration, learning and
'knowing' come directly from the inner guidance. My healer spirit is a wisdom warrior and as such, it has
the power to transform the spirit of unease and disease which thrive on confusion.

Shamanic Journeying:
an ancient method of accessing spiritual guidance and insight by developing a partnership with spirit guides and
animal spirit allies. It can be used for personal growth as well as for healing. A doorway to the inner worlds of power and transformational
wisdom.
I teach one-day workshops in which one learns
to connect with his power animal and spirit guides and to journey with them.

Soul retrieval: restoring the
power of one's soul, bringing back the parts of one's vital energy lost through trauma, illness, giveway or theft. Finding
and bringing the fragmented self home. It is profoundly healing.
If you feel numb, empty or detached, if something happened in the past and you feel
like you haven't been the same since, if you cannot break through a negative pattern or let go of addiction, if you're not
sure where your passion lies, or if you feel like you don't quite belong here, or just don't have much energy and zest for
life, soul retrieval may be for you.
.
Power retrieval: bringing back one's
lost personal power, usually in the form of a power animal. An example of how real it is: a client shouting: "It's an
alligator!" as I blew the spirit alligator into his body-field.
.
Shamanic resolution of past trauma and
inner-child retrieval: this work combines shamanism and systemic family constellations. The past trauma is accessed
and resolved in the time frame of the event. The child self that experienced the situation (the trauma can be acute or
as general as a dysfunctional atmosphere of the childhood home) is then taken out of that environment and placed with the
healing spirits in a nurturing environment.
.
Depossession: releasing spirit attachments,
foreign entities that once attached to one's body-field, try to further their own agendas or expre ss their own (often negative) emotions
through the "host". People who have been traumatized in the past and suffered major soul loss often attract such
energies by being too open energetically.
.
Shamanic extraction: removing spiritual
intrusions that cause pain or illness. In the shamanic world everything has a spirit, and so an illness can be addressed as
a spiritual entity and induced to leave.
.
Psychopomp: helping the spirits of
the dead that are stuck in the near-earth realm to cross over. It can be very helpful for people in a coma, helping their
spirit in making the choice to cross over or to return to the body.
.
Space
Clearing: Removing negative energies (extraction) and entities (psychopomp) from a space.
.
Negative intention (curse) unraveling: when
a problem has been running in a family for generations, it may be a result of a curse placed many generations ago on an ancestor.
That hurtful intention stays in place and affects the generations that follow until the perpetrator is spiritually located
and induced to retract it.
Unintentional curses are the most common. When someone declares to himself with
conviction: "I'll never love again!" it acts like a curse as one becomes locked into that energy. Things that we
hear from our parents can affect us like curses as well. Example: A father
saying to his daughter who wanted to paint: "only whores become artists."
.
Thoughtform
deconstruction: taking the energy out of limiting thoughtforms ("I never have enough money", "I don't
want to be here", "I am inadequate"...). It can be followed
by spiritually potentizing life-enhancing thoughtforms (examples: "I have a charmed life", "I always
have enough", "I am a good person")
