Welcome to Triquetra Therapeutic Services!

 


I want to thank you for dropping by and hope that you will enjoy this blog.

My name is Laurie & I am a certified Clinical Hypnotherapist.

As you will eventually see, a lot of my posts will have pictures of paths and trees and I can't deny that I am a child of nature. I love being outdoors and just sitting quietly listening to the world around me. Throughout my life I've been drawn to paths; paved or dirt roads, barely there bush trails and footpaths, for no other reason than to see what is around the next corner.

As you join me on this journey, you will see postings about my thoughts or information on Hypnotherapy, because helping people to work through their health and life issues is what Triquetra Therapeutic is all about.

Posts will sometimes be clinical, sometimes personal and sometimes scientific in nature. I'll also share random positive affirmations. You'll also no doubt see pictures of my dogs from time to time because they are a big part of my connection to the outdoors and key to living in the moment.

I invite you to stop in, comment and join me on an incredible journey through life.

Perceptions

A few years ago when I first began going to 'networking' meetings, I met people (including a few hypnotherapists), who came up with all sorts of interesting and creative ways to say what they do for a living. Very, very rarely  did anyone come out and say what it is they really did, unless they were accountants or lawyers. I find it really quite sad that when asked, some people dodge giving a direct answer. And this is particularly true of hypnotherapists. In fact, recently, I met with one very well known hypnotherapist who even dodged giving me an answer about why she doesn't give a real answer. It seemed one step away from being deceptive and oh... I don't know... wrong somehow. To me, it feels as though the old snake oil salesman has just stepped into the room. And I struggle with this because I'm definitely proud of the hard work and studying I've done to become a Certified Hypnotherapist. To be able to use the skills I've acquired to help people make

Ch..Ch..Changes...

By this point in my life I shouldn't find myself surprised at the twists, turns and changes that seem to occur at a rapid and seemingly random pace. Yet I am. The past few months have seen many changes and I am finally and very happily announcing that we are in our new location and ready to hit the ground running on our new project. Well, actually an old project revisited. The project, my "Animal Assisted Wellness" is where I/we work with clients with trauma or just life issues that need help getting back to life. Combining aspects of living rurally with animals and the holistic therapies I practice, with other health practitioners, clients are able to heal at their own pace, while being in a completely safe and non-judgemental atmosphere. Finally, at the beginning of this month, we found our new home. A nice little 10 acre property between the little burb of Lone Butte and the town of 100 Mile House. Over the past couple of weeks THE MOVE was on. I spent an entir

The Double "A's of Healing

Acknowledgement & Acceptance: both are crucial to healing. When you first hear that you have a life-altering situation or life-threatening illness or injury - the last thing you want to do is acknowledge or accept the news. You meet the news with shock, anger and denial, even though, in some cases, at some level you already knew what the outcome was going to be. You get emotional. You start giving in to regret and guilt and the why me? Some people go through the blame game, some fall into deep depression and hopelessness. Some just stay mad. Acknowledging and Accepting a situation or diagnosis does not mean giving in. They are part of the process. Moving forward through acknowledgement and acceptance can be some of the most empowering, important steps that you can take for yourself.  Acknowledge the crisis. Acknowledge the full meaning of what you have been told. Ask questions, get information. Educate yourself on the diagnosis or situation and options. Be informed. Accept
