What is a Psycho-Spiritual approach?

A Psycho-Spiritual approach to therapy integrates traditional psychological methods with spiritual and existential insights, aiming to heal and empower individuals on both mental and soulful levels. This approach recognises that our psychological struggles often intertwine with our spiritual beliefs, life purpose, and deeper existential questions. By exploring these dimensions, therapy can address not just symptoms, but also the underlying sense of meaning and connection. Ideal for those seeking more than conventional therapy offers, this method benefits individuals who are looking to reconcile their mental health challenges with their spiritual beliefs, or who want to explore how their inner life intersects with their emotional well-being. Whether you are grappling with a personal crisis, feeling disconnected from your deeper self, or simply seeking greater fulfilment, a psycho-spiritual approach can provide a holistic pathway to healing and growth.

How does this approach support survivors of trauma?

A Psycho-Spiritual approach to therapy offers a profound and holistic healing path for survivors of trauma. By addressing both the psychological and spiritual dimensions of their experience, this approach helps individuals find a greater sense of balance and wholeness. It encourages the exploration of personal meaning and purpose, which can be particularly transformative for those grappling with the existential questions that trauma often brings.

Incorporating spiritual practices and philosophies, this therapy fosters resilience, emotional release, and a deeper sense of connection – both to oneself and to a larger, universal spirit. It empowers individuals to integrate their experiences in a way that promotes healing and personal growth. By personalising the therapeutic process to align with each person’s unique beliefs and values, a Psycho-Spiritual approach creates a meaningful and effective pathway to recovery.

Is this approach right for me?

A Psycho-Spiritual approach to therapy is particularly beneficial for individuals with an openness to spiritual beliefs and concepts. Ideally, you would have some concept of a higher power in whatever form aligns with your life experience. This approach is ideal for those who find traditional methods insufficient and are open to exploring how spiritual and energetic dimensions can enhance their recovery. It supports individuals in finding renewed meaning and purpose, building resilience through both spiritual practices and energy work, and integrating their trauma in a way that honours their psychological and spiritual needs. Whether you’re struggling with disconnection or seeking to deepen your overall well-being, this therapy offers a comprehensive and nurturing path forward.

However, this path may not be suitable for people who are taking psychoactive medications, recreational drugs or have a diagnosed mental illness related to the distortion of reality – as the work does involve highly vibrational energy, inner journey work and transcendental practices which can prove destabilising for these individuals. However, we will discuss any potential contra-indications together in our initial assessment.

As I started my journey to heal my personal traumas, searching for a practitioner to help me, I was often left with the traumas still deeply rooted, and still yearning for the person I knew was within me. Working with Simmy using the Psycho-Spiritual approach has been transforming! I actually feel as though I've been heard for the first time. Simmy's approach is unique, and I'm so glad and privileged to work with him! Thank you very much!

The Process

1 / Assessment

In the initial session of our therapeutic process, I conduct a comprehensive assessment to gain a deep understanding of your unique needs and experiences. This assessment includes not only a thorough evaluation of your mental and emotional state but also a Psycho-Spiritual exploration of your personal beliefs and worldview. By integrating these elements, I aim to create a holistic picture of your well-being, ensuring that my approach is tailored to support you in a way that resonates with your values and life perspective. This is also a chance for us to explore our initial sense of working together and answer any questions that you might have. If we both feel a resonance in working together effectively, we will have the opportunity to finalise our therapeutic agreement.

2 / Two-Phase Sessions

Our sessions stand out from traditional therapeutic approaches through their unique structure and integration of diverse techniques. Each 90-minute session is thoughtfully divided into two parts: the first 50 minutes focus on classical psychotherapeutic methods: using talking therapy to explore thoughts, feelings and behaviours to gain insight, develop coping strategies and achieve personal growth. This foundational work lays the groundwork for the latter portion of the session, which is dedicated to targeted psycho-spiritual practices. Here, we incorporate techniques such as energy healing (Reiki), guided healing journeys, intuitive card reading, meditation/mindfulness etc., to address and enhance your spiritual well-being. By building on insights gained during the initial segment, we ensure that our spiritual work is deeply connected to and supportive of your therapeutic process.

All sessions are conducted online via ZOOM. Energetic healing practices like Reiki can be performed via distance methods, and are just as effective as in-person sessions.
