I have been working with people who suffer from various serious mental illnesses such as anxiety disorder, depression, dissociative identity disorder, multiple personal disorder, panic disorder and post traumatic stress disorder by offering individual and/or group sessions. Haru also offered psychotherapy sessions with medical doctors and psychiatrists in various settings (e.g.Mental health clinic,Children's residential facility) and from a private office.
Hakomi therapy•••Hakomi Experiential Psychotherapy is a mindfulness-based approach to self-understanding. Mindfulness is not simply part of the ‘tool kit’ in Hakomi, but forms the very foundation of the therapeutic encounter.
Much more than a method or set of techniques, Hakomi is a way of looking at the world that is compassionate, mindful, curious, non-invasive, humorous and respectful.
Hakomi is a Hopi Indian word, that has been borrowed to describe the distinctive approach to body-inclusive psychotherapy developed in the USA by therapist and author Ron Kurtz and members of his training staff.<Quotation from http://hakomi.co.nz>
