Shadow Work with the “®”
Shadow Work with the “®”
A Shadow Work® process (in coaching or group work) generally begins with a simple question: “What would you like to have happen?” From there, we explore together what you truly want for yourself. Sometimes that’s crystal clear; sometimes it takes a little curiosity and conversation to uncover. Either way, we’ll keep exploring until we find it.
People often come to Shadow Work® to:
Understand why they react or behave in certain ways.
Find support in unfolding more of who they are.
Work with big feelings like fear, grief, or anger.
Break through old patterns of behavior that no longer serve them.
Why Shadow Work® is Different
Journaling, meditation, or reflection are valuable practices, but they are often passive, internal, and solo. Shadow Work® is different. It’s experiential: you don’t just think about your patterns, you step into them with the guidance and support of a skilled facilitator (that’s ME). Together, we symbolically reconstruct your issue so you can see it more clearly, experiment with new perspectives, and re-integrate the energy that has been stuck in shadow.
This active, embodied process allows you to feel / experience the shifts in real time, not just imagine them. Because of that, the changes often take root more deeply and last longer. Indeed, it actually changes your implicit memories!
An Important Note on Experiencing It
Because Shadow Work® is experiential -you learn through doing- it can be difficult to fully capture in words. Many people say they couldn’t have imagined what a process would feel like until they experienced it themselves. That’s part of its magic: it brings insight, emotion, and action together in a way that addresses who you want to be from the inside out.
How It Works
I offer perspectives and guide you through techniques to safely explore what’s been hidden.
You choose every step: your pace, your depth, your direction. Nothing happens without your consent.
In groups, no process begins until trust and safety are established through carefully designed exercises. This ensures a supportive container for the vulnerable, courageous work of shadow exploration.
Safety and Choice
Exposing parts of your shadow can feel risky. That’s why Shadow Work® emphasizes choice and safety at every turn. You’ll never be pressured to go beyond your comfort level. Ever.
