the who
clients
Individuals
Hera helps clients gain insight and awareness into their inner emotional landscape. Through the dissection of thought patterns, anxiety, mental blocks, and unconscious material... clients are able to recognize their unique challenges and overcome them in order to reach wholeness and fulfillment.
Couples
Hera works with all iterations and styles of relationships. From more traditional monogamy to open and polyamory. She helps couples improve communication, enhance intimacy, and break out of unconscious wounding patterns, and power struggles.
Families
The inner workings of family dynamics are often hard to pin point. She simultaneously helps individuals unpack their role within their unique family system. Through non-violent communication and clear boundaries… dysfunctions and fights eventually loose their power.
Groups
Whether for integration or emotional processing, group work is highly constructive and supportive. Clients have the ability to be witnessed in their experience by others while being guided through thoughtful questions, prompts, and exercises.
The Process
philosophy
Utilizing a unique blend of gestalt, transpersonal, somatic, and intuitive modalities… Hera has the ability to fully meet clients where they are at in any experience.
exploring
Without awareness we’re not capable of change. The first part of the process is exploring and diving into the triggers, frustrations, and pain points in order to develop deeper awareness. Here we will identify limiting narratives and beliefs, explore somatic manifestations, as well as any suppression, repression, and shadow work.
ACKNOWLEDGING + Accepting
Once we have identified the fundamental issues that are unresolved or the emotional content needing our attention… we work through acknowledging and accepting all parts of the self without need to change, shame, or blame them. Here unconditional love and acceptance is of paramount importance.
healing
After sitting with the emotions that are alive in the body and mind, we step into the phase of mending and healing. Using physical expression, movement, and the voice… we begin to move the stuck or blocked energy. With dedicated intention, memories are reprocessed. Forgiveness and compassion alchemize, creating relief and a profound sense of spaciousness within the self.
integrating
It is imperative to begin implementing and integrating changes in behavior, responses, and mental patttens in this phase of the healing process. Practice here allows the mind, body, and soul to reprogram how it responds to triggering situations and stimuli. It’s here that we can begin to introduce new ways of being.
thoughts
creating your alter
Creating an altar is a sacred way to call spiritual energies into your home. It reinforces your intention to invite more peace, serenity, and love into your space.
How to Manifest self love through meditation
Self love meditation is a good thing for everyone, especially anyone with low self-confidence, low self-esteem or low self-worth.
the truth about psilocybin
For decades, psychedelics such as psilocybin mushrooms and LSD have been used in clinical studies, private therapy, and at home to alleviate depression.
“This is the real secret of life — to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realize it is play.”
