Warm, empathic, fully qualified therapist offering Counselling, Reflexology, Reiki/Seichem, Indian Head Massage and Crystal Healing Therapy. Working with people to support their health and well-being, in a way that suits them to ehance their quality of life.
Welcome to Serenity dawn
I believe that people come for counselling and therapies for different reasons and what may feel comfortable to one person will be different for another. I, therefore, offer a variety of therapies to suit the individual and work from two different locations in Waltham Abbey - one with a more clinical setting and the other with a more holistic setting. I also offer a home visiting and corporate service for all holistic therapies.
Holistic Therapies
Sometimes you don't want to talk, sometimes you just want to relax and unwind.
I offer a range of therapies that can benefit your emotional, mental, physical and spiritual well-being, stimulate your body's own natural healing process, boost your immune system, or release tension from your muscles - choose one to suit you....
Reiki
Reiki is a hands on (and off) healing treatment, in which I channel Universal Life Force Energy (Rei - ki) through my hands to clear blockages and imbalances and support your body's natural healing abilities. Seichem is believed to be a more powerful energy healing than traditional Reiki, utilising the different energies of the elements and the the angels. It is a non-intrusive therapy and you will remain fully clothed. The treatment is usually given with you lying down on a therapy couch, however you can also be seated if this is more comfortable for you.
Reflexology
Reflexology is a non-intrusive pressure point treatment and massage given to the feet. The theory behind reflexology is that our feet are like a blueprint of our body and each area of the foot represents an area of the body. Any blockages, imbalances, or injuries can be felt in the foot by areas of ‘crystals’, or painful points. Working on your feet with special reflexology techniques releases these areas and has the same affect as giving an all over body massage. Again it is a non-intrusive therapy, in which you remain fully clothed (except for your feet and part of your calves).
Crystal Healing
Crystals (also known as minerals) have been used for healing since ancient times by many different cultures. Like crystals you also are made of energy and vibrate at your own frequency. Crystals work by gently bringing your vibration and energy back into balance and harmony.
Crystal healing speeds up the natural healing process and your body’s ability to repair itself, allowing you to ‘get over’ illnesses quicker (which can mean that the symptoms get worse for a short period of time before you get better, instead of dragging on for weeks).
As well as speeding up physical healing, they can also speed up the other processes involving mental health, emotional release and spiritual development. They work on all levels helping you to release, heal and grow, while bringing you gently back into balance and harmony, improving your overall health and well-being. It is another non-intrusive therapy, in which you will remain fully clothed while specifically selected crystals are placed on and around you.
Crystals amplify energy, therefore, they are particularly effective when combined with Reiki, as they amplify the Reiki healing energy, making it more powerful.
Indian Head Massage
In India head massage has been used as part of day to day life for over a thousand years. This treatment incorporates these ancient head massage techniques with a massage treatment that is also given to your upper back, shoulders, arms, neck and face, which tend to be the main areas of the body in which stress and tension is stored. You will be seated in a massage chair and can remain fully clothed, or remove your top and have oils applied directly to your skin for a deeper treatment. Oils will also be used in your hair, unless you prefer them not to be.
Regular treatments can be used as a stress management programme and to reduce anxiety and depression.
Angel Fingers Holistic Healing Therapy
This therapy was created through my own guidance and combines reflexology, head and face massage, reiki (seichem), crystal healing and ancient mantras, for a deeply relaxing healing experience. The treatment is quite intensive, as it works on all the areas of stress and tension in your body, aura and chakras, releasing blockages and imbalances in the energy. It can sometimes be seen as a bit of a 'system overhaul' and can be useful to have once a month to keep you in balance.
You may find the treatment a spiritual and uplifting experience, or simply deeply relaxing and restorative. It is a personal experience and each person will get from it what they need.
All therapies can have Reiki included as part of the treatment
Counselling
I am a qualified counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I am a warm and empathic counsellor, who is non-judgemental and respectful of all faiths, religions and beliefs, accepting of whatever you wish to bring into the session.
My style of counselling is Integrative, which basically means that I combine the three main approaches to counselling - Psychodynamic (looking how the past and the unconscious affect the present), Humanistic (working with emotions and feelings in the here and now) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, also known as CBT (which works with how thoughts affect behaviour).
It is important to realise that counselling isn't about giving advice and guidance. Instead it is about working together to build a warm, accepting therapeutic relationship in which you can feel safe and supported. Within this relationship I will actively listen to you and help you to explore your thoughts and feelings on a deeper level, at your own pace. I understand that sometimes this will not be easy, but I will support and encourage you to open up when you feel ready and help you to see your life from a wider perspective that allows change. We will also explore options and look at practical ways to help you to manage any issues and move forward with your life.
Counselling can be helpful for a variety of life issues and emotional problems, including:
Anxiety
Panic Attacks
Fear
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Negative Thinking
Depression
Bereavement
Addictions
Anger
Relationships
Sexual Issues
Stress
Work issues
Abuse
Childhood and past issues
Confidence and Self-esteem
