Abuse comes in many different forms.  There is physical abuse, emotional abuse, mental abuse, and spiritual abuse.  Abuse makes one feel worthless and not lovable.  Abuse can lead to suicide or death in the worse case scenarios.  It can cause lifelong issues for the person who was abused.

The effects of verbal abuse include, fear, anxiety, depression, stress and PTSD. Intrusive memories, memory gap disorders present themselves, along with sleep or eating problems, hyper-vigilance and exaggerated responses.  The startle responses, irritability, anger issues, alcohol and drug abuse become a serious problem for some people.  In severe cases, suicide, self-mutilation and assaultive behaviors take on a life of their own.

This past weekend it was my pleasure to assist a very beautiful soul to resolve the trauma of childhood abuses.

My client was abused in several different ways as a child.  As a result, she felt that she was worthless and was heavily burdened with self-esteem issues.

After the intake information was obtained and an explanation of the process on hypnosis was completed, we started.

I routinely prefer to use regression hypnosis on my clients.  Unless the root cause is identified and resolved it makes the process of healing harder to accomplish.

My client regressed back to the age of five where she relived a particularly traumatic event of verbal abuse.   This was the first time that she felt that she was “bad” and not worthwhile as a child.  She couldn’t understand why she was “bad”.  The adult she is now talked with her child-self.  The child did not believe the adult that she was lovable.  I asked my client to ask the child why she did not believe the adult.  “Because I don’t believe me” was the reply by the adult.

On occasion, I have to help the client dig a little deeper to reassure the child within that they survived the trauma.

I transitioned my client to her place of “safety”.  Her chosen environment was a valley. We explored what this valley looked like, the sounds she heard and the smells that she smelled.  At this point, we brought in the abuser.  Feeling safe in her environment, my client found her voice and had the long awaited conversation  with her abuser.  She was finally able to say what she needed to say to her nemesis.

Once the conversation was completed, butterflies were introduced into the valley.  Each butterfly identified an emotional trauma.  This beautiful lady examined each butterfly individually.  As each butterfly was examined, it was released along with it the trauma that was attached to that butterfly.

Since the trauma had been released, there was a need to fill the empty space with healing light.  I had this gentle soul connect with her creator and feel the love and protection filling her up on the inside and surrounding her on the outside.

I guide each client intuitively based on the intake interview and on what I see emerging during the hypnosis session.  With this client, we brought in her guardian angel to talk with her.  The connection was made in an instant since she already knew her angel.

The session was brought to a close with positive affirmations.  I had her repeat affirmations that her creator renewed her life.  In the post hypnosis review, she reported that she felt lighter, like the burden that was floating just to the left of her head had faded and was gone.

It is amazing to me to see the healing taking place before me with each client.  Once an individual is given the right tools to use, they are able to emerge from the shadows of abuse.  They are able to step into the light and become who they were intended to be all along.  A beautiful, strong, loving soul.
