One on One
My joy is in the magic of presence. In being a companion for your Now, beyond my own judgments, interpretations, ‘insights' or stories. To me, this is as precious a gift to give, as it is to receive. It is to be with another person's moving truth, and represents the most meaningful connection I know.
My one on one sessions are based on embodying and teaching the principles of NVC, by fostering a mix of honest self-expression and a deep quality of empathy. The basis underlying everything else in my sessions is Empathic Listening. Being heard with empathic presence makes way for a deepened sense of self-connection, and allows your own inner wisdom and compassionate nature to emerge to the surface of your awareness. Alongside this, NVC offers a set of simple, practical and "do-able" tools, which I will share with you when the moment asks for it, and which you can practice in your own time, in communication with your loved ones and in connection with yourself. In essence, my intention is to "follow" you in your rhythm, and sense what is most needed from there. If it serves connection and safety, I will also opt for honest self-expression, revealing how I am feeling moment by moment.
Empathy Sessions
One of the most meditative things I know how to do is to listen empathically. I love to be with what someone is sharing, to follow them in their aliveness, moment by moment. This means that in some moments I enjoy being with pain. In other moments I enjoy being with pleasure, and everything in between, when a person receives the space to be heard beyond what is habitual in 'everyday conversation'.
My joy is in the magic of presence. In being a companion for the other person's Now; and then their Now, and then their Now, beyond my own judgments, interpretations, 'insights' or stories.
To me, this is as precious a gift to give, as it is to receive. It is to be with another person's moving truth, and represents the most meaningful connection I know. Being heard with this quality of presence is also among the most healing experiences I have had.
Empathic listening is at the core of all my one-on-one sessions. I hold a strong conviction that all the knowing and wisdom resides inside each of us, and in my experience, it is most easily accessed with the simple, respectful and powerful gift of empathic presence.
