Every Therapist Needs a Therapist Sometimes

Paula is a social worker in the social work department of a downtown Boston hospital.   

She had been working with me on the goal of getting happily married, and we were making good progress clearing dysfunctional family system patterns so she wouldn’t reproduce them in her relationships. One day she came in complaining that she had been feeling lethargic and depressed for the last month and she had no idea why.  Further inquiry revealed that six weeks prior, she had helped a woman who came to the Emergency room after being beaten by her husband.  Paula arranged for safe housing and a restraining order against the husband.  Although Paula had done everything she could to keep the woman safe, the woman returned to her husband, and he killed her.  The woman arrived at the Emergency room dead. Paula had to do the paperwork and hadn’t felt right since. 


I was surprised that Paula didn’t recognize that she had been traumatized.  I said, “Do you think you are not human?  You put on your professional social worker uniform when you go into work and that makes you impervious to tragedy, frustration and disappointment?  Professional social workers don’t have feelings?  Inside the costume you are human, and someone you tried to help got herself killed despite your best efforts.  Of course you are traumatized.” 


So, we treated Paula for the trauma, and she felt immediately better.  


Frank is a very experienced Licensed Psychologist and practitioner of Energy Psychology. 

Although he had done a lot of work on himself, he was still experiencing mysterious physical and emotional symptoms of burnout.  He came to me to help him find the missing piece.  Sure enough, he had a series of traumas that were blocked to conscious access, which is why he hadn’t been able to find them.   


I showed him the structure, we followed the HBLU™ protocol to clear it, and his symptoms went away. 


Claira is an emergency room nurse who showed up valiantly every day during Covid.

After a year, she started drinking too much, became depressed and prone to outbursts of anger, and could no longer tolerate social interactions.  Her partner threatened to leave her. Claira, who had never had any kind of therapy and thought that as a nurse, she could just tough it out, realized she had a serious problem that wasn’t going away by itself.  Claira found me through a wholistic nurse who had seen me present at a conference.  I explained to Claira how the unconscious mind and body held emotional patterns that influenced behavior and reactions and even caused physical symptoms.


Although skeptical at first, Claira eventually came to understand that there was more going on inside than she was consciously aware of and stepped up to do the work.   


In the last year, Clara has recovered from burnout and repaired her relationship with her partner. 


We all need a little help sometimes.

At the most fundamental level, we are all multi-level beings with a conscious mind, an unconscious mind, a body and a soul. Despite the roles we play in everyday life, and the skills and abilities we have accumulated as mental and physical health-care providers we all have blind spots about what is running our reactions, behaviors, and maps of reality. Nobody knows everything. We all need help sometimes. 


Healing from the Body Level Up™ methodology (HBLU™) is designed to find hidden patterns of suffering, patterns that no one else can find or even knows where to look.  Even for experienced mental health professionals or people who have been in therapy for years, HBLU is designed to help clear what you haven’t yet been able to find. My mission is to support helping professionals be fully in service so that together we make the world a better place. 


If you or anyone you know has problems you haven’t yet been able to heal, HBLU™ methodology can help you. Especially for healing professionals, if you would like to protect yourself from absorbing negativity from your clients, we recommend you start by watching HBLU™: Heal The Top Five Patterns That Cause You To Absorb Other People’s Problems, Illnesses, And Symptoms

One of my favorite projects is getting people happily married. To do that I did quite a bit of original research and discovered that just as there are psychological child development stages, there are 3 psychological relationship readiness stages.

Sally and Frank came to me with the complaint, “He/she doesn’t love me.” When I asked Sally what Frank could do to make her feel loved, she said, “He needs to tell me I’m beautiful.” Further exploration revealed that she needed to hear this once a day. Although we tested other adjectives like gorgeous, fantastic, pretty, cute, adorable, fabulous, wonderful, terrific…no other adjective gave her the feeling of being loved. Frank agreed to do this one simple thing. In contrast, Frank needed someone to pet his head (anywhere on his head) about once a week to feel loved. Sally agreed to do this.
