Ooops meant to write this last night…oh well, better late than never, right? π
As I wrote over a week ago, I have been thinking about therapy again. For some reason, I couldn’t quite decide what was best of my options and so I kind of mulled longer than I had planned. However, I decided to go ahead and contact the woman, Karen, in LA to see what her schtick was all about. Her blog sort of weirded me out, but I thought it would not hurt to at least have a chat with her.
In the meantime, I also made an appointment with a new therapist at the old place I was going as it seemed easier to go to a place that has my files already so that I’m not starting over from zero there.
HOWEVER, last night I had my first chat with Karen and it was…amazing, interesting, positive, and more. I’m not sure how to describe it exactly, but everything she said really resonated with me. First, she explained that what she does is not therapy, but coaching. Her belief is that our minds are like super computers and viruses were downloaded into our brains from zero to 19, which negatively affect us in our lives now. So, her technique is to go into the past and remove the viruses to allow people to have better lives moving forward. What’s not to like so far?
She uses concepts from neuroscience, psychology, law of attraction and her own beliefs of past lives as well as the mystical and ethereal worlds. The latter bits I’m still skeptical about, but it seems that what she is doing is working. So, after a full hour of conversation with her telling me bits of her life and me telling her bits of my life, I felt really comfortable and ready to try out her method. It is a bit costly, but so is going to therapy for the rest of my life… ;).
Next week, I will do an initial session to begin the journey and see how it goes. If I like it, then I will continue for 9 months through the program. If it means that I can avoid the need for a therapist for the rest of my life, I think I am in! Stay tuned!
