General Counselling
Alima provides a somatic, holistic approach to general counseling, supporting the healing of issues around depression, anxiety, grief and life transitions. Including relationship questions.
Working with the Feminine
Alima works extensively with women, individually and in groups, in rites of passage and transitions through all stages of life. She is currently particularly interested in supporting the emergence and embodiment of true feminine power and wisdom.
Working with the Feminine is particularly potent now. Over a 30 years span, Alima has helped thousands of women to come home to themselves, to emerge, discover and regain their autonomy, and trust in their inner knowing.
She is passionate about supporting women, particularly, to emerge from historical wounds of discrimination, abuse and shame, to speak, and find their Voice, and show up powerfully and authentically in their lives and relationships.
Trauma-resolution / Somatic Experiencing
Alima participated in the first ever SE training in Australia.
(Somatic Experiencing / Peter Levine / Waking the Tiger) and is one of the most experienced and senior therapists working in the field of trauma-resolution in Australia today.
She is particularly interested in working to help resolve attachment /early trauma, as well as PTSD.
Existential Inquiry
Today especially, many people are going through painful transitions including a sense of confusion around their purpose, and what it means to be human, to be alive, and finally, to die.
Alima has been called a midwife of emerging consciousness.
Death, dying, and deep existential questions of meaning and the longing of the soul to come home, are an intimate part of her daily conversation. She adheres to the understanding of non duality, the essence of all the great religions, that underlying all of life is one absolute reality, call it Consciousness, God or Love. And that this is our True Nature and available, always… NOW.
This inner understanding and wisdom of the heart are potent reminders for Alima at this stage of her life, and she naturally orients towards supporting and guiding people in exploring these deeper dimensions.
