WEAVING WISDOM TO YOUR WAKING WORLD
A deeper connection to self
EMbodied Imagination®
Combining Depth Psychology, Neuroscience, Dream Science, and Somatics, Embodied Imagination Therapy® guides us to explore and expand ourselves by embodying different states and images from Dreams, Memories and Psychedelic experiences.
By interacting with disparate parts of our psyche, not usually accessible to our habitual consciousness, we are able to:
gain insight and clarity
rewire engrained patterns and limiting beliefs
approach and process trauma held in the body
develop supportive somatic tools
expand psychological flexibility
strengthen neural pathways
feel and tend to unprocessed emotion
CULTIVATING RIGHT RELATIONSHIP
Who Can be supported by
Psychedelic integration?
Humans have cultivated expansive relationships with the plant realm for thousands of years. As the Psychedelic Renaissance Remembrance gains momentum in the West, we are rediscovering the remarkable intelligence of our entheogenic allies.
Current Research and the long held practices of Indigenous Wisdom Keepers show significant potential in the treatment of
Depression
Anxiety
Couples Therapy
PTSD
Sexual Trauma
Addiction
Palliative care
Self Exploration
Yet Psychedelics alone will not ‘fix’ our problems.
Our task is to work integratively with these Ancient Medicines, to support the unfurling of meaning and understanding in our lives.
With proper integration, balance, and reverence, psychedelics can act as a supportive ally.
They should be approached respectfully, timefully, and honouringly, as we would approach any Teacher or Guide.
*Please note, Tess does not serve any psychedelic medicines and highlights that they are still illegal in Aotearoa, New Zealand.
Any exploration is done on the calling and curiosity of the individual.
AN ALLY ON THE JOURNEY
I have an International Honours Degree in Psychology and am currently pursuing a Masters in Psychotherapy. I have studied Psychedelic Preparation and Integration through Dr Katherine Lawson at Awake in the Dream School, which has created a particular toolkit for navigating, feeling, and comprehending more fully than our habitual consciousness would usually allow. In this way, you’re empowered to carry meaning from altered states into your waking life.
I work gently and presently, to accompany your exploration of your own inner landscapes, and be an ally to your intentions.
“Tess is one of warmest, safest and most attuned people I've ever worked with in a therapeutic setting. With her guidance, I was able to dig deep into my own intuition and subconscious to find answers and insights that were inside me all along.”
