Counseling & Mentorship

Bespoke 1:1 Sessions

with Aya Dunin

“Whatever I flee from pursues me. Whatever I welcome transforms me.” –Jennifer Paine Welwood

Here you will find more information about my 1:1 counseling offerings. When we embark on a therapeutic journey, we are rooted in mindfulness, somatic illumination, psycho-spirituality, trauma consciousness, and quantum healing.

Psycho-spiritual exploration delves into the intersection of psychology and spirituality, we can work in an integral manner, that offers profound insights and inner transformation. With quantum healing, we tap into the inherent wisdom of the universe and many timelines to facilitate profound shifts and healing on all levels at various stages of life and its many thresholds.

Below are the methods that are drawn from for individual Somatic Psycho-Spiritual counseling sessions.

Hakomi

Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy

The Hakomi Method is a powerful and transformative approach to personal growth and healing that integrates mindfulness, somatics, and psychotherapy. It is a pioneer in mindfulness and experiential psychotherapy for over 40 years.

Hakomi integrates a wide spectrum of influences, including Buddhism and Taoism, physics, body-centered therapies like Gestalt, Reichian work, the Feldenkrais Method, Bioenergetics, Focusing, NLP and Ericksonian Hypnosis, and General Systems Theory.

Through mindful exploration of present-moment experiences, including thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations, Hakomi practitioners help clients access the underlying beliefs and patterns that shape their lives. By fostering a compassionate and non-judgmental space, the method allows for deep insights and healing to emerge naturally.

With its emphasis on the mind-body connection and the integration of past experiences, Hakomi offers a holistic framework for transformation and growth. Whether addressing trauma, relationship issues, or personal development goals, Hakomi supports individuals in reconnecting with their innate wisdom and cultivating a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Dharma of Trauma

Now ISITTA

The Innate Somatic Intelligence™ Trauma Therapy is Manuela Mischke-Reeds’ approach offers an integrative and relational approach to trauma healing. Drawing from core Hakomi Therapy techniques, ISITTA incorporates a polyvagal trauma-informed perspective, emphasizing the somatic, relational, and clinical skills necessary for trauma transformation. Rooted in six guiding principles, inspired by the foundational principles of the Hakomi Method, ISITTA provides a framework for practitioners to cultivate integrity, self-awareness, and embodied wisdom™. These principles serve as an internal compass, anchoring somatic and trauma techniques. For instance, interventions rooted in compassionate inquiry yield a distinct quality and impact on the client, while an emphasis on relational and community healing prompts therapists to examine their own biases within their trauma therapy practice.

Transformation Coaching

Transformation Coaching is a dynamic approach to personal growth that delves deep into the core of change, integrating embodied spirituality, depth psychology, trauma healing, holistic facilitation, and genuine human connection. It was created by Dr Nicola Amadora. By uniting spirituality, psychology, and practical skills, this coaching method supports individuals in navigating their spiritual awakening journey and addressing the myriad of challenges it can evoke. Whether it's uncovering limiting beliefs, healing past traumas, or cultivating greater self-awareness, transformation coaching provides a safe and supportive space for clients to explore, heal, and evolve on all levels of their being.

Quantum Healing

Quantum Healing is a cutting-edge approach to wellness that harnesses the principles of quantum physics and consciousness to facilitate profound healing on all levels: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. This holistic modality recognizes the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, viewing illness and imbalance as reflections of deeper energetic patterns.

Time in the Quantum field isn’t linear and we can access various timelines to address past events that need resolution. Through techniques such as energy work, prayer technology, intention setting, and accessing the quantum field, Quantum Healing empowers individuals to tap into their innate healing abilities and create lasting transformation from within.

Northern Native American & European Earth-Based Spirituality practices are also woven into these sessions if desired.

Client Testimonials

“Being in sessions with Aya helped me uncover memories and connections that helped me understand so much about myself and my habits.  Already after the first session I found a new sense of hope and ambition.  I was able to release a lot of things I didn’t even know I was holding onto, and I can already see the way that it is helping me in my day to day life.” — Asia H.

“She brings such warmth and compassion to each and every session,  always creating a safe place to go deep. She’ll help you narrow your focus, get down to the root of what may be holding you back, and guide you in moving through. I always appreciate her deep knowledge and authentic caring way. Highly recommend!” — Alexis H.

“My series with Aya far exceeded any expectations I could’ve had. I was not prepared for the deep and extensive experience I had with myself. Aya guided me to a place where I could find answers and heal trauma. My experience with her work changed my life and most importantly my relationship with myself. I recommend her services constantly.” — Betsy P.

“The healing sessions I received from Aya Dunin brought clarity and whole body integration that I was deeply yearning for. Aya held safe and sacred space and gracefully guided me to places of deep healing. I now feel lighter and free to step into who I am becoming. I feel deeply loved and supported by creator and the results I felt were instant.” — Jade B.

“Aya is very present and precise. She picks up on the subtle and holds it with integrity and strength. She is tuned in spiritually, energetically, and intuitively; she is a powerful guide and healer. Aya supported me to move through and deeply release blocks I couldn’t navigate before. She carries deep wisdom and generosity; anyone who is lucky enough to know her will be blessed with many gifts.” — Jessica A.

“Absolutely grateful for Aya's theta healing sessions. A journey that helped me explore emotions that were hidden deep inside of me since I experienced the most important loss in my life many years ago. Aya created a safe dimension for all those emotions to come up and guided me through this journey to heal the inner child with compassion and unconditional love.” — Lorena J.
