THERAPISTS - Katie Brown
I offer Reiki and Crystal Healing, Solution-Focused Therapy for Children
and Hypnotherapy. I have worked as a Person-Centered Counsellor for 13 years,
specializing in working with young people and children. I have worked in many
primary and secondary schools as well as The Zone and Coasts.
I discovered Solution-Focused Therapy a number of years ago but it wasn’t
until I started using this with Hypnotherapy that I realized how effective
this approach can be. Children are amazingly resilient and don’t like
to focus on the negative so this approach is ideal for them. Some young people
want to feel better but don’t like talking about their difficulties,
this approach enables them to make positive changes, reducing stress, anger,
anxiety and depression without having to explore the past.
Solution-Focused Therapy for Children and Young People involves creative
play, art and color therapy and positive visualization, this enables the child
to express themselves and let go of negative feelings whilst focusing on what
they want or how they would like things to be. This will improve their self
esteem and behaviour and enable them to cope with external pressures. A free
consultation is offered to the parent to explore in more detail the child’s
needs and to discuss the therapy in more detail. I have a CRB (Criminal Record
Check) Certificate. I trained with Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training
(CPHT) and have found that positive results are achieved much quicker than
talking therapies.
I began spiritual healing about 20 years ago and realized I had a natural
ability. I am attuned to Master Level in the Usi Reiki and Seichim Lineage.
With some clients I am able to ‘read’ their energy and share this
information with the client. This will usually involve emotional and physical
states and can be quite clairvoyant in nature.
REIKI HEALING Stress and anxiety will affect our natural ability to heal and
we become out of balance. Reiki is a hands-on/off healing method using Universal
Life Energy which will help our own healing systems to work to their full
potential, helping us to balance and vitalize. On a physical level, it is
extremely effective for acute and chronic pain, post operative procedures
and all types of health issues especially stress related ones such as IBS,
Migraines etc. On an emotional level Reiki can bring deep-seated issues to
the surface and release emotional and negative blocks, renewing the mind,
body and spirit with new energy. For the terminally ill, Reiki healing brings
an inner peace and can be of great comfort to the dying, making their departure
from this world a peaceful experience. For the relatives, friends and loved
ones left behind, Reiki can help with the acceptance and recovery process
incurred from their loss.
A treatment will usually last an hour including a pre-assessment of what
the client wishes to receive from the reiki and post- session support on how
to achieve their full potential. During the treatment I can usually (not always)
‘read’ a persons energy, I will always share this information
which usually enables the client to understand what is blocking them or in
need of healing and how to do this.
CRYSTAL HEALING
For thousands of years Crystals have been known for their beauty, healing
and spiritual properties. This treatment is unique in its nature as I combine
Reiki and Positive Visualisation with Crystals for an intense healing session.
Crystals are extremely effective in drawing off negative energy, empowering
and enabling chakras, cleansing, purifying and protecting. This is an extremely
relaxing but energizing treatment and will usually last up to an hour.
