Is about taking a journey within….
Welcome to inner Quest
Tracy Drew is an Integrative Counsellor; Hypnotherapist and Reiki Master/Teacher.
My move into holistic therapy began 9 years ago following several years of interest and intrigue at the many different therapies available. My love of people, the art of language, psychology and my desire to follow drug-free methods of healing prompted me to take a Reiki 1 course, and my new path began! 9 years later, with lots of training and experience (more than 2,500 Reiki sessions!) I believe I offer a combination of talking and healing therapies that provides long-term healing for both mind and body. I work with a warm, friendly approach with my client’s best interest always my priority, therefore, I will suggest combining therapies where I feel it is beneficial.
Counselling
I have been working with clients for around 7 years. As an Integrative counsellor I am able to draw on several different schools of counselling, which allows me to adapt to each individual client - because we are each of us different, with our own unique set of problems and our own unique way of behaving and communicating. I firmly believe that when we have the chance to be heard, in a safe and trusting environment; when conversations are confidential and we know we are not being judged for the feelings, thoughts or experiences we share, then we learn about ourselves in a way that helps us to move forward.
There are many reasons that people need to talk:
- depression and anxiety
- relationships
- career issues
- bereavement
- life changes
- the past catching up
- low self esteem
- lack of confidence
- stress
- loss of direction or feeling stuck
Hypnotherapy
How hypnosis works
From before we are born, the inner part of our mind, or subconscious begins to store everything that we hear, see, taste, feel and experience. It has no filter to recognise what’s helpful, it just stores it – a bit like the memory on your pc. Just like a pc gets a virus, sometimes we develop behaviours that do not benefit us ie phobias or irrational fears that seem to have come from nowhere.
There are times in our lives when we find ourselves with low self-esteem and confidence, anxiety, depression, stress and other emotional problems that stem from challenging relationships, life situations and/or childhood.
Hypnosis can be used very effectively to find the root cause of a problem, which then allows the issue to be understood and re-framed.
People come for all sorts of reasons, some can be dealt with very quickly and others take longer. It depends on the individual and the problem needing to be resolved.
What can hypnotherapy help you with?
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Situations outside your comfort zone ie driving tests, exams, public performances etc
- Phobias and fears
- Sleep problems
- Bad habits
- Sports performance
- Low confidence/self-esteem
- Reducing stress
- And many more…………
What is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a deep level of relaxation that allows the conscious mind to quieten down and the unconscious mind to be accessed, which allows for outdated beliefs that no longer benefit you to be updated with a new, beneficial belief system. At no time will you be ‘under’, in fact the conscious mind is completely aware of everything that is happening. You feel beautifully relaxed, a bit dreamy, just as if you’re about to drift off to sleep. At all times you remain in control, you will never reveal anything unless you choose and you will never leave doing strange impressions!
Past Life Regression
Whilst PLR can be used therapeutically for a wide range of situations and is particularly useful where there is a sense of ‘being stuck’, I also offer interest only based sessions for those that are interested in learning more about their previous lives. These sessions are of great interest and can be useful in understanding more about your personal development in this life.
How I work
I work with several different models of hypnosis, according to each individual client’s needs.
- Analytical hypnosis
- Hypnosis with CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)
- Regression hypnosis
- Past Life regression
In the first session we will discuss your needs and I will explain in more detail how hypnosis can help you. Then you will have the opportunity to experience the wonderful, peaceful state of relaxation known as hypnosis that will allow you to leave the session feeling relaxed, calm and confident that together we can work to achieve your goals.
Reiki
Reiki is a simple Japanese energy-balancing method that is used by hundreds of thousands of people all over the world. A Reiki session is a simple process. The client relaxes on a couch, fully clothed under a blanket with soft music playing. The practitioner gently lays her hands on the body in a series of hand positions on the head, torso, and legs for a few minutes.
During the treatment, energy (called “chi”) is drawn through the practitioner into the recipient, helping to produce a state of balance. Sessions are peaceful, calming and deeply relaxing– an escape from the stress of every day life.
Reiki can help you to:
- Feel more positive, confident and better able to cope
- Deal better with stressful people and difficult situations
- Develop a strong sense of purpose and clear-thinking
- Remove some of the ‘clutter’ from your life
- Enjoy a better quality of life
Find:
- Deep relaxation
- Reduced stress & anxiety
- Boosted energy levels
- A feeling of inner calm, contentment and serenity
- A speeding up of the natural healing process
Reiki courses
Reiki can easily be learned by everyone. I teach 2 day courses for Reiki 1 and 2 levels in small groups of just 3 or 4. Training is insightful, friendly and fun. Please contact me for more details.
My role
Whether you come along for counselling, hypnotherapy and/or Reiki, I understand that it can be difficult to talk to a stranger and that sometimes problems feel silly and feelings seem overwhelming. My aim is to work with each individual person to help them overcome that discomfort so that together, we can find solutions or work through challenging times.
I was privileged to spend 4 years as a counsellor and assessor working with young people in a youth counselling agency, therefore I am able to work with both adolescents as well as adults on an individual basis.
