Energy Work Therapy
Energy work can be an impactful addition to traditional talk therapy, especially when dealing with the emotional pain of loss or illness. When something painful happens, it’s common to avoid any reminders of the loss. This understandable avoidance ends up causing more discomfort and dissatisfaction, robbing you of engaging in the meaningful aspects of life (relationships, social gatherings, celebrations etc.).
Energy work helps soothe the discomfort, bringing awareness to the act of avoidance that may have gone unnoticed. Energy work meets you where you are in your current experience, and helps you to get a deeper understanding without words.
what to expectEnergy work with Clarissa
My approach to energy work draws from Reiki, Therapeutic Touch and QiGong Healing and is a simple, gentle, non-touch method incorporated with talk therapy.
I will move my hands just above your body to find blockages, stuck unprocessed emotions and to help balance the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual energy centers.
You may feel sensations of heat, cold, or energy waves through the body or may simply feel a deep sense of relaxation. Some clients experience a sense of release, ease and/or insight. Each experience is unique and I invite you to arrive with openness and curiosity, rather than expecting a specific result. You may have a different experience every time.
MORE DETAILS ABOUT ENERGY WORK
Are there any risks associated with energy work?
Reiki and Therapeutic Touch have not been found to have any adverse effects that can interfere with conventional medical care. Both modalities have been used concurrently with medical intervention.
Some have experienced hot, cold, slight tingling, or release of emotions during the session. Depending on the issue, the uncomfortableness tends to subside during the session. A majority of my clients report that they experience some degree of relaxation.
