At Mary's Place of Wisdom a Mind/Body/Spirit philosophy is central to how I work and may include REIKI and Australian Bush Flower Essences.
We work together so that you may find your own inner wisdom to reach your goals. During this process we may use the Artistic Therapies of drawing, painting (you don't need to be able to draw or paint), sand tray, symbol work, puppets, drama etc. which helps express those deeply-hidden emotions, fears or anxieties and allows for gentle transformation and healing. Within the Mind/Body/Spirit philosophy I take a somatic based counselling (body-based) approach in the belief that everything that happens to us affects our emotional, mental, physical and spiritual body. Learn how to let go of all that is troubling you and feel in your body just how wonderful it can be. It is not mandatory to participate in these therapies - we can still sit and have a chat about your concerns. Each session is tailored to your individual needs.
This Artistic and Expressive Therapies approach works particularly well with children as they find a way to solve problems, work through anxieties, release their fears and heal their grief by playing with clay, drawing with crayons, painting with watercolour, using symbols in the sand tray and through the dramatic art of movement and sound. Teenagers and adults too can participate in these therapies and experience just how transforming it can be.
I also offer small groups or workshops which gives you the opportunity to have a taste of what's on offer. Maybe you'd like to organise a group of friends and attend a workshop specifically designed just for you and your needs, whether it be how to cope with family life, how to build stronger boundaries, what to do if you are totally exhausted etc.
