Finding more joy often means getting more support.
Havening Techniques sessions are designed to help you make peace with life's hardest moments, release stress patterns, and regulate your nervous system.
To get started, fill out the private introductory form as fully as possible. This will give me a sense of your needs and help me prepare for our first session. Please allow at least 3 business days between the day you submit your form and your initial session, so I have time to review your information before your session.
After you've filled out your form, you can book your first session. Plan for 10-15 minutes of quiet reflection time before the session and 30 minutes for integration afterwards. You'll need a quiet, private space, a strong internet connection, and access to Google Meet. Note: times are in Central European time; please adjust for your time zone.
Havening Techniques are a series of practices designed to help your mind process traumatic events and release anxiety.
While the results can be powerful, the practices are gentle and non-invasive. You're fully at choice and present throughout the process.
Havening uses three specific touches designed to calm your nervous system: palms of hands, upper arms, and cheeks. During online sessions, you'll be guided to use the Havening touches on yourself if it's comfortable to do so.

Havening is often used to support people who are struggling with trauma, grief, and anxiety, and can also help people shift into a more joyful, positive mindset. Many people can benefit from Havening Techniques, including guided sessions with a practitioner and self-Havening practices.
First, I'll spend some time learning about you, and we'll work together to set goals for the session. When you're ready, you will briefly call to mind a stressful, painful, or traumatic situation that you want to resolve; you can decide whether you share any information about that experience with me.
Next, I'll guide you through a series of practices designed to calm the emotional triggers associated with that situation. With your consent, I'll guide you to use one or more of the Havening touches: palms of hands, cheeks, and upper arms. I'll also talk you through pleasant distractions and imagery, tailored to your likes and interests, to soothe your nervous system. We'll end with a debrief and next steps for self-care and continued wellness.
No. Havening is not therapy and is not used to diagnose or treat any medical or psychiatric condition. While I am working towards certification as a Havening Practitioner, I provide Havening guidance as a wellness coach, not as a therapist, psychologist, or other health care provider.
