What Is Holistic Counselling?
Holistic counselling is a form of professional counselling that considers the whole person rather than looking at one concern, emotion or difficulty in isolation.
Our emotional wellbeing can be influenced by many interconnected areas of life, including our thoughts, beliefs, emotions, physical experiences, relationships, family background, past experiences, current circumstances, values, identity and sense of purpose.
A holistic approach recognises that these different aspects of life can influence one another.
For example, ongoing stress may affect your emotional wellbeing, physical health, relationships and ability to feel connected to yourself. Difficult past experiences may influence present-day beliefs, emotional responses and relationship patterns. Significant life changes may affect your confidence, identity and sense of direction.
Holistic counselling provides an opportunity to explore these connections and develop a deeper understanding of yourself and what may be influencing your wellbeing.
At Signs of Abundance, Tara combines professional counselling knowledge with an integrated, mindful, empathic and strengths-based approach. Sessions are guided by your individual needs, preferences and goals.
Holistic counselling is not about addressing every aspect of your life in every session. It is about understanding you as a whole person and considering the wider context of your experiences.
If you would like a more detailed explanation, you can read Tara's educational article here on:
What Is Holistic Counselling? Find article here
The Whole-Person Approach: What Can Holistic Counselling Explore?
Depending on what is relevant to you, holistic counselling may explore several interconnected areas of your life.
Thoughts, beliefs and mindset
Understanding the thoughts, beliefs and patterns that influence how you see yourself, interpret situations and respond to life's challenges.
Emotional wellbeing
Exploring emotions, emotional responses, unresolved feelings and experiences that may be affecting how you feel today.
Physical wellbeing and the mind-body connection
Developing awareness of how stress, emotions and life experiences may be reflected in physical sensations, tension, energy levels and bodily responses.
Relationships and attachment
Exploring relationship experiences, attachment patterns, family dynamics, boundaries, communication and the way past relationships may influence present-day connections.
Past experiences and personal history
Considering how earlier experiences, family background and significant life events may influence present-day feelings, beliefs and behaviours.
Values, identity and self-esteem
Exploring what matters to you, how you see yourself, your personal values and the qualities that make you who you are.
Life transitions and challenges
Working through changes in relationships, family circumstances, employment, health, identity and other significant life experiences.
Meaning, purpose and spirituality
Where meaningful to you, counselling may also explore spirituality, personal beliefs, purpose and your connection with something greater than yourself.
Your personal beliefs and worldview are always respected. Spirituality is optional and is never imposed as part of counselling.
Tara's Integrated and Holistic Approach to Counselling
Tara J Clarke offers an integrated, holistic, mindfulness-informed, psychodynamic, empathic and strengths-based approach to counselling.
Rather than following one rigid therapeutic model, Tara draws upon different counselling approaches and techniques according to your individual circumstances, preferences and needs.
This allows the counselling process to be flexible and personalised, recognising that what is helpful for one person may not be appropriate for another.
Tara's approach combines professional counselling skills with an understanding of the connections between thoughts, emotions, experiences, relationships, physical responses and personal meaning.
What Can Holistic Counselling Help With?
You do not need to have a particular diagnosis or be experiencing a crisis to seek holistic counselling.
Sometimes you may simply feel that something is not quite right, that you have lost your sense of direction, or that you would like to understand yourself more deeply.
Holistic counselling may be helpful when you are experiencing:
-
Anxiety, worry or ongoing stress.
-
Emotional overwhelm or feeling stuck.
-
Low confidence or self-esteem.
-
Negative thinking patterns or self-criticism.
-
Relationship difficulties and attachment concerns.
-
Family changes or relationship breakdowns.
-
Grief and loss.
-
Difficulties managing emotions.
-
The emotional impact of past experiences.
-
Life transitions and significant changes.
-
Difficulty establishing boundaries or saying no.
-
People-pleasing and fear of rejection.
-
Questions about identity, values or purpose.
-
A desire for personal growth and greater self-awareness.
-
A need to reconnect with yourself and what matters to you.
Every person's circumstances are different. Counselling is guided by what you would like support with and what you hope to gain from the experience.
Holistic Counselling for Anxiety and Stress
Anxiety and stress can affect many areas of life, including thoughts, emotions, relationships, sleep, physical sensations and confidence.
A holistic approach may explore not only what is happening in the present but also the experiences, beliefs, relationship patterns and circumstances that may be contributing to how you feel.
Depending on your needs, counselling may draw upon mindfulness, CBT-informed techniques, psychodynamic exploration and strengths-based strategies.
If anxiety is one of the main reasons you are considering counselling, you may find these articles helpful:

Holistic Counselling for Relationship and Attachment Concerns
Our early experiences and important relationships can influence how we connect with others, how we view ourselves and how we respond to emotional situations.
You may find yourself experiencing people-pleasing, fear of rejection, difficulties with boundaries, relationship anxiety or repeating patterns in your relationships.
A holistic and psychodynamic-informed approach can provide an opportunity to explore these patterns and develop greater awareness of your needs, emotions and relationship experiences.
Holistic Counselling for Grief and Loss
Grief is not limited to the death of someone we love. It can also follow relationship breakdowns, separation, pet loss, family changes, health changes and other significant life transitions.
A holistic approach recognises that loss can affect your emotional wellbeing, identity, relationships, physical experiences and sense of meaning.

Holistic Counselling or Traditional Professional Counselling: What Is the Difference?
Traditional professional counselling and holistic counselling are not necessarily opposing approaches. Professional counselling can already be highly individualised and may draw upon different therapeutic models and techniques.
The distinction is often in the emphasis placed on understanding the person and their experiences.
Holistic counselling places particular emphasis on considering the whole person and the wider context of their life, including emotional wellbeing, thoughts, physical experiences, relationships, values, identity and meaning.
It may also include spiritual or personal beliefs where these are important to the individual.
At Signs of Abundance, Tara offers professional and holistic counselling. The approach is guided by your preferences, needs and what you are seeking from counselling.
If you would like to explore this distinction further, read:

WHAT IS THE INNER CHILD ?
The deep part of you mind, your subconscious mind is where your Inner Child resides. Your inner child is an aspect of your personality that began in utero or in childhood when you emerged as an intelligent, playful, curious being who was emotionally sensitive and very vulnerable. The formation of your Inner Child was influenced by your interactions with parents, grandparents, peers, teachers, coaches and others, both positive and negative.
By praising and encouraging the Inner Child, self-esteem and a positive self-image are nurtured. Trauma, neglect, abandonment, or abuse (emotionally, physically, and/or sexually) wound the child within, who suffers deeply, and expresses a damaged sense of self. The coping mechanisms that develop to protect the child, when carried into adulthood, sabotage the accomplishment of their goals and dreams, and undermine living a healthy, fulfilled life.
Inner Child hypnosis is a therapeutic technique that grants direct access to the subconscious mind through deep relaxation and focus. The subconscious mind in this state is open to healing the Inner Child, cultivating a positive mindset, and inspiring productive actions for success.
Often the best therapist is the one that has gone through what you seek healing from. Tara is not only experienced having hypnotized thousands of clients, but also have much life experience in abuse. Tara comes from a background of a low-sociology economic society and has healed from a childhood of much pain, suffering, abuse, addiction and violence. She has been through abuse and understands the needs of the inner child. Choosing a therapist with life experience as well as work experience is key to an easy transition to healing your inner child.
To warm into working with your inner child, to the left of this message is the blue box to buy the guided inner child meditation. It will more than likely make you cry, however push through it as crying is releasing water, releasing water is releasing the emotions, releasing the emotions is healing!

PHYSICAL ABUSE WITHIN THE INNER CHILD
Physical abuse in childhood such as physical violence is not acceptable behaviour. Physical abuse on all levels, even mild abuse such as slapping, damages a child and is classed as childhood trauma. Most children that have been physically abused end up in downward spirals in their teens and in their early adulthood. Physical violence in many cases leads to the victim believing that they did wrong. This leads to the victim of abuse believing that they are not worthy of respect and deserved the abuse. This in turn leads to self-sabotaging patterns in their life where they may decide to make choices to attract more of the same physical abuse into their life. This may be the start of an unhealthy habit such as smoking, binge drinking of alcohol and turning to taking drugs or narcotics. This may also lead to attracting more physical abuse into their life such as the wrong abusive partners. For example: Many times I have seen women remain in physically violent situations because they think they are receiving the attention they lacked in childhood from their parents. Physical violence towards a child can be a result of extreme frustration, anger, rage, or past childhood abuse experienced by the abuser. In many cases I have seen, this abuse is within the family as generational karma and vows taken in past lives where the suffering and pain continutes from generation to generation. When you begin to work on yourself inwardly, you can release the generations of abuse of your past, break the cycle and begin to love and accept yourself. Many of our generations back, our ancestors have been through a lot of war, suffering and victimhood. However, the behavior of physical violence is never excusable. These actions communicate to the child that they are a failure, unworthy, unloved, and undeserving. In many cases of physical abuse, the child has been abandoned and rejected by one or both parents. Too often victims of childhood abuse grow up with the inability to feel secure and trust others. This impedes their capacity for a victim of physical violence and physical abuse to form fulfilling professional, social, or romantic connections. When you can go back in time and face the physical abuse situation head on, understand why you went through the abuse, you can reach a level of pride, courage, willingness, neutrality, acceptance and eventually forgiveness and peace. Especially self-forgiveness. It is important to forgive yourself for everything you went through in your past, in order to heal.
EMOTIONAL ABUSE WITHIN THE INNER CHILD
The Inner Child's self-esteem is wounded by negative messages and harsh criticism from parents, grandparents, peers, teachers and guardians. Frequently, the words are loud or even screamed. The tone of voice can occasionally be sarcastic or mocking. Engaging in verbal abuse or name-calling can cause severe emotional distress for a child that can be imprinted within their psyche and damage their spirit for life.
Negative messages are commonly expressed through negative body language, which can be quite intimidating. Anger and abandonment can be inferred from glaring or walking away. Even though this is not physical abuse, this kind of emotional abuse is just as traumatic to the inner child.
The child often interprets their lack of parental involvement and caretakers' attention as a sign of their own worthlessness. When a child's needs of survival and nurturing are not met, the Inner Child feels abandoned and neglected. As a child, they develop coping mechanisms such as acting like they are invisible in the room, perfectionism, people pleasing, not speaking their truth to avoid conflict. All of these negative behaviours may provide some relief and is a coping mechanism to the inner child. However, as adults, these behaviour's hinder their success and well-being because the true authentic feelings, patterns, and limiting beliefs are suppressed. Where these feelings, thoughts, patterns, and limiting beliefs are suppressed depends on the situation. If it is around not speaking their truth, it will be in the throat chakra. If it is around sexual abuse, it will be in the sacral chakra. If it is around being a failure or powerlessness, it will be held in the solar plexus chakra. If it is around decision-making, it will be held in the head. If it is around abandonment or rejection, the inner child issue will be held in the heart. When we have blockages in our chakra energy centres this causes a tear in the chakra. When there is a tear in the chakra, we attract negative energy that reflects the vibrational frequency of the energy we hold. So if we are angry from childhood, we attract more of that anger and if we do not do the inner work to heal the chakra tear, the anger is amplified and open for psychic attack or worse, spiritual attachment. If we do not work on our inner child, over time, we can attract dark entity attachments without even realising. Dark entity attachments can be the reason for downward spirals in your life and heightened emotions. Tara J Clarke skills extend to the removal of these negative entity attachments at soul level so that you can be free from energies that drain you as you go about your day.
SEXUAL ABUSE WITHIN THE INNER CHILD
Inappropriate touching, flirtatious behavior, uncomfortable stares, sexual suggestions, and explicit sexual content (drawings, photos, videos) are all forms of sexual abuse. All of these are conditions of sexual abuse and violate a child’s innocence and committing sexual abuse. The resulting damage can have lifelong effects, including confusion, avoiding loving relationships with a partner, shame, self-blame, self-sabotage and a negative self-image. Often, memories of these events are hidden in the subconscious, but the pain and suffering continue to manifest in unhealthy ways. For this reason, hypnotherapy that targets the deep subconscious mind is the best tool to use, to heal the inner child.
HOW THE NEGATIVITY OF THE INNER CHILD CAN IMPACT YOUR LIFE
The inner child's psyche is profoundly impacted by abuse and neglect. A majority of humans neglect to treat their inner child. Neglecting the inner child can result in problems such as anxiety, panic, depression, self-hatred, and lack of concentration.
Emotional nourishment from others, such as love, encouragement, support, and appreciation, is vital for healing and overcoming the Inner Child's wounds. If you've experienced sexual abuse but find a compassionate and patient partner, it can greatly aid in healing your inner child. Unfortunately, not everything is fortunate, and the law of attraction attracts people who resonate on the same frequency. For instance, if we hold onto anger, the universe will keep presenting us with people and events that provoke our anger. We will continue to project the anger and reflect it back as like attracts like. We will continue to become entangled in this downward spiral of anger until we finally choose to do something about the anger and rise above it, by having an inner child healing session. The universe brings people into your life who will make you feel resentful if you hold onto resentment. The mirror will keep reflecting back at you until you address the underlying cause of your anger.
Abuse survivors can receive support from peers, teachers, or friends in addition to parents or caretakers. Having a wise and loving partner as an adult can provide additional support for healing. Unless you are living in a love bubble or have high vibrational friends, most individuals lack the ability to provide the necessary understanding, empathy, and support for meaningful healing. The key to finding peace, joy, abundance, and living a better life is by doing inner child healing work to uncover the root of your blocks and restrictions, limiting beliefs, and unhealthy patterns.
If you experienced childhood trauma or abuse and are unable to find joy, love, and peace, it's time to embark on inner child healing.
Your vibration increases when you engage in healing. Each time you shed a layer of the past, your vibration rises to a higher frequency. See Dr David Hawkins Levels of’ Levels of Consciousness here. Healing from the trauma of sexual abuse involves progressing from shame to courage and ultimately finding joy. Many victims of inner child abuse only need one session. Depending on your situation, you may require multiple sessions, but each session with Tara J Clarke will help you uncover and heal past wounds.
The Inner Child cannot heal naturally over time. Often the inner child needs professional help to heal. There are many forms of therapy available. Tara J Clarke offers Inner Child hypnotherapy and spiritual guidance to help you explore the root cause of your inner child, gain understanding, learn lessons, and help you put all of the knowledge into place, to make positive choices of divine wisdom for the future.

The Dr David Hawkins Map of Consciousness shows that you can move out of the lower vibrations of guilt and shame and move into the higher vibrations of reason and integrity in Acceptance, neutrality and courage. With inner child therapy with Tara J Clarke, she takes up to the next level of love, reason, joy and peace by really helping you understand why you went through your past experiences, at the level of the mind and soul.

This is to see whether you have any curses, vows, soul attachments, karma, generational karma or ancestral blocks that are amplifying the situation. This information you likely will not know consciously, but this information is important in helping you get to the root of your inner child issues.
With her expertise as a holistic counselor, Tara is highly skilled at conversing with you to uncover the root cause of your inner child issue and the individual or situation it pertains to. During the beginning of the session, you will have a conversation about your childhood and the reason for your session.
Hypnotherapy will be used to regress you back in time to your inner child that needs to be healed. If hypnosis makes you uneasy, Tara can also guide you to your inner child through a guided meditation instead.
During the guided journeying, we collect the necessary information to comprehend your situation. Uncover resolve, acceptance, insights, and the optimal course of action.
To facilitate the shift from past wounds to positive thinking, at the end of your inner child healing session, you may be placed on a 21-day energy transmutation ritual. This is to assist in the transitioning of old negative patterns to new positive patterns at the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels.
