Integrative Shamanic Therapy

Integrative Shamanic Therapy (IST) is an integrative approach to psycho-spiritual healing that combines elements of depth psychology, transpersonal psychology, shamanism, and mindfulness.  IST focuses on the relationship between body, mind, soul and spirit, and on the unique expression of the spirit of Life in each individual.  IST helps individuals heal past traumatic experiences, navigate through life transitions, and progress toward wholeness and self-actualization.

IST borrows from the alchemical and shamanic traditions for which the development of our connection to the unconscious or invisible aspects of reality is key to our psycho-spiritual development.  Through mindfulness practices, counselling and shamanic journeying, IST aims at helping individuals uncover and tend to the psychological and spiritual blocks responsible for their existing concerns and/or symptoms, as well as reconnect with their innate life power.

Moreover, by supporting the compassionate exploration of one’s internal reality, IST fosters the development of intuition and creativity, as well as the recognition of one’s unique soul’s gifts and the ways to express them successfully in one’s personal, relational, professional, and spiritual life.
