Spirituality

Dr. Inez is informed by Jungian archetypology, ritual, ceremony, Taoist, mindfulness, and pagan approaches when working with psychedelics for consciousness expansion.

I approach spirituality from a psychospiritual perspective, combining skills I have learned as a Spiritual Director, Psychotherapist and Coach. I believe in multi-spiritual awareness and where I fall short on knowledge about a particular belief or faith, I am open to learning from you.

I consider myself a spiritual being living a human experience. I believe sitting with humanity is sacred and very much an honor. I chose to take spirituality in counseling, and a course in dreamwork while in graduate school and am passionate about spirituality. I don't consider myself an expert, just another human walking the path and I enjoy still learning about things about myself on my own journey.

Spirituality is such an important part of the healing process, and of simply being human. More than religion or faith, I look at spirituality through the lens of meaning and purpose; transcendence and interconnectedness; understanding our inner landscapes; the healing process and a life well lived. There is much wisdom in ancient philosophies and even instagram posts, and I delight in breaking it all down, supporting your own process and using this dimension of life for good.

Life is often inherently spiritual to humans as we wrestle to find meaning in our lives, whether or not we realize it. This could involve a search for fulfillment in life, an existential question of who we are and what we have to offer to others, how to live morally, and so on. The journey is not easy, as it concerns the very fabric of our beings; thankfully, we do not have to journey alone.

I can integrate spirituality into my therapeutic practice to help you explore the deeper aspects of your existence, find personal meaning, and cultivate a sense of inner peace. Understanding that spirituality can significantly influence your mental health, I create a safe, open space for you to explore your spiritual or religious beliefs. Whether you're navigating existential questions, experiencing a spiritual crisis, or seeking spiritual growth, I incorporate mindfulness, meditation, & more.

Many clients seek me out in my local area because I am secular, and they feel comfortable discussing their doubts and struggles to create meaning in their lives without any fear of judgment. It's common for people to question longheld beliefs upon becoming parents, and it can be stressful navigating relationships with religious family members once you've left your faith. Together we'll identify some healthy boundaries and practice ways to communicate them to the people in your life.

From a depth psychological orientation spirituality is considered a core ingredient of overall well being. When we are disconnected from our own spiritual center, however that is defined by each of us, we can be more vulnerable to emotional instability, addiction, and depression. While I do not push any particular spiritual agenda, I do invite you to become curious about the spiritual dimension of your life, and how this represent a vital internal resource.

In my practice, I integrate mindfulness, somatic practices, and client-centered exploration to honor the intersection of spirituality and the mind-body connection in sexuality. Through compassionate inquiry and tailored interventions, I help individuals cultivate awareness, acceptance, and connection with their bodies, enhancing their sexual well-being and overall sense of wholeness.

I have a dedicated daily meditation practice and also love to participate in silent retreats as often as possible. I am also a certified mindfulness educator through Mindful Schools and have taught mindfulness to a wide variety of folks, including youth in juvenile hall, high school faculty members, and groups in a wellness center for our aging population. I have helped people from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds learn and embrace the benefits of living their life more mindfully.

Spirituality is an issue I have had the pleasure of treating, dating back to my time at Abilene Christian University. It is a concept often overlooked and one that I seek to synthesize with the mental health world by allowing my patients to examine themselves as beings who can acknowledge a higher power and simultaneously recognize that they have agency in this world to activate positive change. The use of religious materials is welcomed by me to my patients should they desire to use them.

During our time together, we will explore beliefs and practices related to meaning, existence, and spiritual health and healing. I often speak about spirituality in terms of the Universe and our connection to ourselves and the connection to something larger than ourselves. I will support you in exploring what your unique sense of spirituality means to you.

How you connect to yourself, love, nature, or an eternal being is often not discussed in therapy when in reality spirituality/religion can be just the thing we need to heal and cope from life experiences.

I believe we are spiritual beings having a human experience. As an ordained Interfaith/Interspiritual minister, my experience and training have prepared me to assist you in developing your spiritual self in a way that strengthens and supports your life.

When we recognise that we are not just this body and we connect with something bigger than ourselves, doubts arise. It is in those moments when we need a guide to connect us with specific aspects that help us not to get lost in this journey. As a music therapist I specialise in transpersonal archetypal music therapy, a deeply spiritual approach and I work with the Body Nature method, in which we work with the 7 main chakras. I also work as an animal communicator and end of life doula.

I have a deep interest and expertise in spirituality, rooted in a lifelong curiosity about how we find meaning and connection in our lives. My exploration has included studying various spiritual traditions, reflecting on their teachings, and integrating these insights into everyday life. I’m particularly drawn to practices that foster self-awareness, inner peace, and compassion, helping us navigate life’s challenges with clarity and resilience. Spirituality, for me, is about creating space to ex

Spiritual exploration can be a powerful tool for healing—I help clients incorporate their spiritual beliefs into therapy for deeper transformation.

Spirituality is complex. It lives in how we experience life in its highs and lows, spirit carries us in to heavens and below in the depths. Its my work to ground your spiritual self with your body and to find it's integration your life. Without grounding spirits run too high or too low. When grounded within integration our spirit becomes a fountain of life giving energy and purpose.
