The goal of a counseling relationship is to support the movement from a place of dis - ease to a place of happiness and peace. The cornerstone of spiritual counseling is the belief in a power or Source that is at work within ourselves and the world and it is only through the connection to our Source that we can truly feel at peace and know that “all is well”. Therefore, this type of counseling supports a movement from an experience of disconnect to one of deep connection. In this space all answers are given.
Is spiritual counseling right for you?
Those who are drawn to spiritual counseling have become exhausted by the "seek and do not find" experience, and have come to realize that the world's remedies for their pain and dis-ease are fleeting and uncertain. They seek a deeper meaning for their lives and a more peaceful and loving way to be in the world. Those who benefit from spiritual counseling have a willingness to explore their inner-most beliefs and feelings as a pathway to living in a state of peace and joy.
What is the overall process?
The spiritual counseling process begins with the understanding that all external problems are an effect. The cause is the mind believing it is a separate, guilty, weak and vulnerable self. Therefore, what is required to find peace and joy is a change of mind in what it believes and a reversal of this limited view of the Self. A spiritual counseling process uses Divine Guidance to help a person
Release guilt, worry, anger, sorrow etc...
Recognize spiritual guidance
Experience inner peace
Gain freedom through the recognition and letting go of false beliefs
How does a spiritual counselor support you in this process?
The counselor provides a safe environment where you can begin to question and bring to the surface all that you believe about yourself and the world that have led to the current patterns in your life. The counselor supports you through challenges that are disturbing and/or painful by offering deep listening, non-judgmental presence and gentleness.
A spiritual counselor who has deepened their own ability to hear guidance, gone through their own process of releasing false beliefs and has experienced the healing that comes from being vigilant in letting go of their own blocks to love; can offer practical steps, processes to release fear, judgment, emotions and false beliefs, and personal experience to help support your journey. This will enable you to
Experience more joy in your life
