"The work I did with Barbara was very safe and nourishing in ways
I hadn't known I could feel. The work we did with boundaries was very
powerful. I always left taking a lot with me—new energy, new sense of
my own power, and a reaffirmation of the nurture I deserve."
~
Kay, a former client
"I am very happy to
have been able to work with Barbara. After doing a lot of work in group
therapy around the issue of childhood sexual abuse, I felt ready to move
into some deeper work. Barbara has been exactly what I needed. By combining
talk therapy, body work & Reiki together, we have been able to reach a
deeper level and thereby free up some old energy and obsolete patterns
of behavior. I would not hesitate to recommend Barbara."
~ Michelle, a former client
"Hello Barbara— Thank you for listening
to me! I am very grateful for the work I am doing with you. I appreciate
your patience, as I struggle, stretch, and grow. I admire you Barbara,
and respect the owrk that you do. I think you are very wise, and I enjoy
learning from you."
~ With sincerity, J., a former client
"Intellectual healing is done with words. However, emotions are
felt by the body. For emotional healing to occur, one must process &
resolve pain-filled experiences and re-integrate mind and body. Reiki
helps a person to access and describe, then resolve emotional responses
to traumas felt by the body. This process is essential for healing from
painful experiences that occurred before one had the words or concepts
to deal with them, and/or were so overwhelming and confusing one is
unable to put words to them.
"E.g.: My client, whom I'd referred to Barbara,
in later sessions described her experiences with Barbara and Reiki :
I'd felt these sensations before, but couldn't describe them. During
a Reiki session, I re-experienced the original sensations that had been
so frightening. But this time I was able to put words to them. I remember
suddenly blurting out, 'That's the abuse!' It was a huge relief that
those horrible physical sensations I'd had all my life—and that had
produced so much anxiety—could be named and dealt with."
