My role is simply to serve you and to honour the goddess within you.  In session, I work with the physical, personal, emotional and transcendent by providing a loving, accepting space which enables healing to occur. Working with each client varies enormously and there is no typical session, but elements that we work with may include:

  • Moving energy
  • Opening chakras through breathing and other meditations
  • Gentle loving holding
  • Full body including yoni massage
  • Shamanic healing
  • Psychotherapeutic techniques

Why Work with a Man?

When men have harmed women so much on both personal and cultural levels, you may ask – why trust a man to heal these wounds? The answer is, in part, because some wounds caused by men can only be healed by men. The essence of the mature masculine is being present, focused and having clear intention. When doing this work, I sit in my masculine. I witness without judgement. I create safety and hold the space in which healing can occur, allowing whatever may arise.

Learning to Say No

In each session you will be encouraged to reclaim your power. This is done in part by being able to define your own boundaries. Through processes which will connect you with what feels right for you in each moment, you will be able to clearly define and state your boundaries – and know that they will be respected. This simple exercise allows women to reclaim their power in being able to say NO! This increases self-confidence and in itself can heal wounds which may have been inflicted by men.

Every woman has been hurt by a man. These wounds need not be anything as dramatic as sexual abuse, though I work with this too. A physically or emotionally absent father can be enough to colour a little girl’s view of men and relationships for a very long time.  Simply being empathically witnessed by an accepting man can be incredibly healing for someone who has been wounded by the masculine. Being affirmed by a man who has no agenda can also be very healing.

Part of my role is simply to encourage, allow and bear witness to whatever arises in these sessions; without criticism, without taking it personally. Unexpected emotions can be released – grief, rage, pain – can all arise and be released in the safety of that space.

Bringing out the Goddess Within

The essence of masculinity is presence – that deeply felt sense of awareness, strength, safety and trustability that comes from being grounded and focused when a man is fully in his masculine.  Being witnessed and affirmed in this healing by a masculine presence can not only heal these wounds but awaken the divine feminine which resides in every woman.

Working Together With a Female Healer and Four Handed Massage

Some wounds can best be healed by men, some by women. Sometimes I recommend clients join women’s circles so that they can experience the divine feminine modelled in other women.

I also work together with my partner and female fellow practioner, Shyama, who is a gifted energetic healer as well as sacred sexual healer.  This gives clients an opportunity to experience the different energies of the masculine and the feminine side by side or simply to experience double the pleasure through a four-handed massage.  Sessions can take the form of psychosexual healing or simply experiencing the touch of both a man & a woman.
