Transformative Counseling WHAT ARE MY SESSIONS LIKE?

I offer counseling sessions remotely and in-person with the aim to catalyze transformative, clarifying, empowering and healing experiences. My sessions often leave clients more at home in their Self, unburdened and alleviated, connected to their innate wisdom, intuition and power, and in touch with a deeper sense of meaning in their lives. I weave in my training in Hakomi Somatic Psychotherapy, my

studies in Jungian & archetypal psychology, and a multitude of spiritual teachings with fluidity into my sessions. My 20+ years of personal growth work, spiritual seeking, and studies with many mentors and masters along the way inform the ground I draw from. This work is rooted in my deep fascination of the human experience in all of its many expressions from the messy to the mundane and to the miraculous. I lead with a rich and loving curiosity to understand the underlying psycho-spiritual elements at play in one’s life and work within the lens that this universe is one of benevolence. I offer a clear mirror to explore yourself in - free of judgment, full of love and acceptance, and fortified by my trust in the inevitability of one’s healing.

You can change your direction.
You can love what you really love and land in a place that feels more like home.”

Waking up and reading a selection of poems from her collection Queen Owl Wings was the absolutely right way to start my day.

Jeannette, your poems are gorgeous. Just phenomenal. Thank you for your generosity.

And thank you for being such a loving patron of the arts and poetry and gifting me this book of gems for no reason other than it feels good to gift beauty.

Take notes! Conflict will always be an element in any kind of relationship. This is part of being human. But the health and longevity of these relationships will be determined by how we move through those moments of conflict.

Many of us grew to be conflict-avoidant due to chaotic upbringings where conflict equated to loss of love from and connection to our primary caregivers. It made perfect sense why we would stifle our feelings because as children we depend on our parents not just physically, but emotionally and psychologically. Anything that threatened these bonds got amputated.

But as adults, this conflict avoidance ends up causing the disconnection that we originally sought to prevent.

I support individuals to recover from self-censorship, self-gaslighting, and help them develop a healthy tolerance for the discomfort of conflict so they can navigate those tense moments in relationship with confidence and self-respect.

When we move through conflict with skill then we make space for these relationships to strengthen and deepen through the conflict instead of crumble under the slightest pressure.

Life is not safe! ⚠️ We humans are delicate things, the road can be quite perilous, & sometimes there are no safe harbors when we need them most. But we did not come here ill-equipped for the journey. That invisible fire of courage is always available to us. And Grace - that mysterious force of benevolence - awaits in the wings ready to meet us when we make the commitment to show up despite our fears. Those of you that have taken a heroic leap in the dark know this to be true.

There will never be a time when the circumstances feel perfectly safe enough for you to jump - and this is a good thing! Life would be too boring & predictable if we never had to flex our bravery muscles. Some of the most exciting & fulfilling experiences of life are found in places where the risk is high - where there is a chance we won’t make it, that we might fall, that they’ll say no… but when we do make it, or we catch ourselves & land on our feet, or they say yes… that is the moment when our fear transmutes to joy…. Joy blended with pride, self-respect & self-love.

Your fear is not your enemy - it’s an invaluable guide on your path of becoming. It points to the places where courage is needed, and where the big payout of self-actualization is possible. Learn how to walk with it instead of feeling bullied by it into cowardice, inaction and despair.

Allow yourself the mercy of truth. And it IS merciful!

Your fear of touching what IS is understandable. Embracing the truth of the world and one’s life can be a serious task in this day in age.

So many people live in discord because they refuse (consciously or unconsciously) to accept reality exactly as it is. They bargain with life, they try to bend it to their concept of what “should” be. They believe that The Creator got it wrong and that they could write a better script about how this beautiful chaos should play out.

So much bargaining, hiding, pretending and denial is employed to protect oneself from the pain of life (or at least that’s what they think they’re doing).

There is a risk to this truth business! By touching the truth we must also be willing and ready to feel it. And some emotions *seem* too big to let through. But the process of adding more and more bricks to the dam to keep the waters of emotion at bay is no walk in the park either.

Think about it, do you want to be a mighty dam, rigid and unmoving, or a flowing majestic river of clear water?

There are gentle ways to approach your truth, to work your way up to it, to have space held for you and a skillful guide to hold your hand as you walk toward the center of your longing to be free. I do just that for my clients each day and I witness them soften into the truth of their being like a babe in mothers arms.

This month is all about sitting with the “hard” truths in my sessions. (The truth is never hard to embrace, it’s our resistance to it which is the hard part to overcome). Every truth embraced and felt melts away that dam and brings more life back to my clients. They reclaim their vitality, their range of (e)motion, they cultivate courage and a higher tolerance not only for the sorrows of life but also for the joys. It is a joy to facilitate these breakthroughs.

🌸 I am a transformational counselor working 1:1 virtually to facilitate your breakthroughs, midwife a healthier empowered version of yourself to come through, and help you understand yourself better so you make better choices.

“I was thankful to find a style of counseling unique to Kadhi. I was excited to get started, but surprised at what I discovered. Her compassion and understanding was comforting. She helped me see that I was rejecting parts of myself. She encouraged me in unique and helpful ways to start noticing this and opening my heart to feel and accept myself more. I loved the [Hakomi somatic] meditation piece we incorporated into one of my sessions and how she guided me to allow my feelings to surface, and helped me navigate what came up. I value my time and insight from Kadhi immensely.”

Your resistance to discomfort has an unintended consequence - a limiting/dampening/lessening of your ability to experience pleasure and joy.

Your conflict avoidance prevents you from ever feeling truly free. Free from what? From the looming threat of some uncontrollable and unbearable friction with someone.

When we dare to pivot toward the discomfort, incrementally or all at once, we find that we are actually able to withstand the pain. That we magically expand to contain the bigness of the difficult experience. And that it eventually passes. The wave recedes. We are returned to the shore more resilient, peaceful, and relieved of our compulsive clenching against the inevitable waves of life.

And in this courageous act we simultaneously carve out a deeper capacity for the joys of life. The two poles of pain and pleasure are intertwined and inseparable their spectrum.

By being brave enough to face the darkness, we become brave enough to embrace the lightness, fully.

Is it pain you are avoiding? Or is it actually the full ripe fruit of joy that you are shying away from?

swipe through to unpack this ☞︎☞︎☞︎ Taking responsibility for our life is a high form of self care. It retrieves our full Self back home from the people we have unwittingly given over ownership to, putting our liberation and healing in our 🤲🏼. It means that we have the last word on how we let life impact us. It is a gift that we get to give ourselves and it doesn’t require anyone else’s participation.
⁣⁣⁣
We are not in control of what happens to us in life, we are not even in full control of what triggers us, but we do control how we respond.

Are your responses in alignment with agency, resourcefulness, responsibility and self-care? or are they aligned with a victim mentality?⁣⁣⁣

What areas could use an upgrade into maturity by taking more ownership of yourself?

Hang in there, loves. So many of us are moving through waves of intensity that seem impossible to withstand. The loss of control can feel paralyzing.

Knowing we cannot control this passing moment of chaos, can we soften just a little bit in the face of it? Can we release our clenched jaw, pause to take a full actual breath, or shake it out for a moment?

Surrender is always an option.

Again these words…

Let everything happen to you
beauty and terror
just keep going
no feeling is final.
- Rainer Maria Rilke

This one goes out to one of my clients from today, you know who you are! 😘

We live in a transactional culture, so it would make sense why we think there’s a formula for doing life - “do good and good things will happen to you!” - but life isn’t so formulaic in its transactions. We can strive to do well and set ourselves up for success in most areas of our lives, but this doesn’t spare us from the bumps, crises and catastrophes along the way.

Can you “journey into
a deeper intimacy
with the world
and your life
without any promise of safety
or guarantee of reward
beyond the intrinsic value of
full participation?”

Words by Oriah Mountain Dreamer.

“Sessions with Kadhi have been incredibly profound, magical and clarifying. We have worked together at major junction points in my life and I find her unique style of counsel deeply helpful. She helped me make a decision to move (to a town where I am now SO much healthier), supported me in leaving a floundering relationship with love and held me through the integration of a shadow piece which changed so much about how I show up to life. I'm very particular about who I look to for support, and consider Kadhi a trusted advisor.”
