Energy healing vs counselling: which is right for you?

Energy healing and counselling both help you heal, but they work in very different ways. Understanding the difference can help you choose the right support for where you are right now, and many people find the two work beautifully together.

What is quantum energy healing?

Quantum energy healing is a holistic, complementary therapy that aims to release emotional blocks and blocked energy. It can be done in person or as a distance session from the comfort of your own home.

Sessions usually last about an hour. There is nothing invasive involved, so there is no recovery time, although I do advise resting, drinking water and simply being afterwards. You will receive guidance and aftercare information.

Your session begins with an intake form so I understand your needs. I then work to create breakthroughs in your energy field and body, helping to clear out what no longer serves you. From there you can begin to notice an energy shift and take more loving responsibility for yourself and your energy.

You do not have to talk

With energy healing you simply lie down and receive. Unlike counselling, there is no talking needed during the healing itself, although there is time for a short chat before and after each of my sessions.

Talking about the past can be part of the healing process for some people. But if you would rather not talk about certain things, energy healing can be a powerful option. Journaling is another great way to release: instead of talking, you pour your thoughts onto paper, which is a very personal, private and powerful way to let go.

What is counselling?

Counselling is a talking therapy. Talking things through with a trained professional can be a way of processing, releasing and letting go. In England you can refer yourself to NHS Talking Therapies for free, and there are also many private counsellors and apps offering counselling.

Which is right for you?

• Energy healing may suit you if you feel stuck, drained or tense, you would rather not talk through the details of what you are carrying, or you want to work on an energetic and emotional level
• Counselling may suit you if you want to talk things through, understand your thoughts and patterns, and build practical coping strategies
• Both together often works best. For a thorough healing of mind, body and energy, a root cause therapy may be helpful alongside other holistic therapies such as quantum healing, energy healing, Reiki, reflexology, hypnotherapy or RTT

For more severe mental health issues and trauma, conventional talking therapy such as counselling or psychotherapy may be needed. Always seek help from a medical professional.

A safe complement to other support

Energy healing is a gentle, safe complementary therapy that can sit alongside any other support you are receiving.
