The Four-Dimensional Wheel of Sexual Experience grew out of Gina Ogden’s ground breaking work on sexuality and spirituality, our work together in the energy realms/multidimensionality, Oscar Miro Quesada’s Peruvian mesa, and all her beloved colleages along the way. Working the Wheel is an integrative, practical approach that empowers clients by inviting them to define and […]

This section can be useful for anyone who volunteers, works with, or supports other people.
Just be very aware of the appropriateness of your boundaries in using these ideas.
Where I differ from other people offering professional supervision is in the breadth of serving professions that I have worked with, particularly those that don’t use supervision, and in my orientation towards the energetic aspects of interpersonal work. Since much of that I do is tailored to the specific needs of the professional, I can only talk in broader terms about what I do and what I think is excellent supervision.
The Business of Your Practice
I have worked successfully with counsellors, psychotherapists, ministers, intuitives, healers, spiritual counselors, bodyworkers, energy workers, psychics, astrologers, occupational, art, and massage therapists. I welcome working with practitioners in all the service professions. People entering these professions want to help others and are often surprised to find that they are small business owners. Even though you […]

Coaching is usually defined as working together to establish suitable goals, action plans and timelines within […]

Energy
What do I mean by looking at the energetic aspects in supervision? When I begin with a client/supervisee, we discuss what they want in supervision. First step after that is to ensure that their space is clean and cleared of all energies that do not support their goals for their practice. Then we invite in […]

Safety
I believe that the goal of professional supervision is to provide a safe place for the service professional to talk through what is really happening or not happening within and about their practice/business. I have seen too many examples of paying for professional direction and support where we don’t feel comfortable enough to not gild […]
