ABOUT
Susann von Meijenfeldt
The Hakomi psychotherapy approach was introduced to me in 2003 and I have deepened my love and knowledge of this unique method for over two decades, resulting in becoming a certified therapist and teacher.
I am continuously integrating the embodied loving presence, mindfulness and curiosity of Hakomi with other somatic-, trauma- and holistic therapy approaches. I love offering therapy in this gentle, kind, connected, respectful and inside-out way. It is my joy to see clients being surprised, reached and supported by Hakomi, making it the cherished foundation of how I show up as a therapist.
I complement and integrate Hakomi with Somatic Experiencing (SE), Attachment Focused and IFS informed EMDR, and Resourcing and Regulating the nervous system (Polyvagal therapy). Working with parts (Internal Family Systems Therapy/ IFS) is an essential element of my work.
As a certified Coach (Co-active Coach/CTI, HeartMath Mentor and Trainer) I connect clients throughout the sessions with their resources, innate qualities, and strengths. These have often become covered by limiting beliefs and accumulated stress that are the result of painful and traumatic events. In this way post-traumatic growth is something that can naturally be unearthed together.
I work in person in Edmonton, Canada, and online worldwide.
