Integrative Spiritual Therapy for Highly Sensitive People and/or those with AACC
Integrative Spiritual Therapy
Integrative Spiritual Therapy (IST) is a therapeutic approach that integrates emotional, physical/energetic, mental and spiritual work for adults who are highly sensitive, highly empathetic or highly gifted – and for you (whether or not you identify with the above) if:
- You live in a state of constant overstimulation.
- You absorb other people’s emotions and energies.
- You often feel emotionally overwhelmed.
- You experience anxiety stemming from excessive mental processing.
- You feel that you do not fit into conventional models of life or relationships.
- You have developed patterns of complacency, over-adaptation or self-sacrifice.
- You live with high self-expectations or perfectionism.
- You experience a deep need for meaning and coherence.
- You are going through life, existential or spiritual crises.
- You feel a disconnect between who you really are and the life you are living.
TIE is not based on dogma or religion, but on the need for you to find meaning, inner coherence and a deeper connection with your own experience. To this end, it offers you tools to:
- Regulate your emotional and energetic system.
- Stop confusing empathy with emotional burden.
- Set boundaries without feeling guilty.
- Regulate overstimulation.
- Reconcile yourself with your intensity.
- Integrate the feeling of being different.
- Develop a more authentic identity.
- Transform your sensitivity into a superpower rather than a burden.
The aim is not for you to adapt to what is happening to you at the expense of your own well-being, nor simply to alleviate your symptoms, but to explore what is happening on various levels. These levels, which we can work on using the metaphor of a tree, range from the roots to the fruits:
-
Limiting beliefs and reactive patterns: not feeling good enough; the need for approval; fear of abandonment; the need for control; not feeling safe...
-
Events, experiences, and life circumstances: family conflicts, bullying, trauma, accidents, experiences of rejection, abandonment...
* We often believe that our patterns and beliefs originate in childhood. Yet, at a deeper level, our soul arrives in this world already carrying the imprint of past lives. For this reason, the soul chooses the parents, events, and circumstances that will shape it, with the sole purpose of transmuting and transcending those patterns. -
Emotions and feelings: sadness, insecurity, jealousy, loneliness, nervousness, distrust, anger, helplessness, fear, guilt...
-
Symptoms: existential (lack of meaning, disconnection from the divine, spiritual crisis...), physical (pain, exhaustion, illness...), relational (family or relationship difficulties, distrust, loneliness...), professional (unemployment, workplace harassment, lack of purpose...), financial (scarcity, debt, monetary loss...).
-
Gifts: what you offer to the world. Your life is not only about receiving (satisfaction, love, attention...), but also about giving to others the gifts you came into this world to offer.
Spiritual Dimension
The range of reasons why a person might seek therapy is as vast as the universe. However, TIE not only addresses all the issues covered by conventional therapy, but also has a spiritual dimension that deals with other, more specific issues faced by highly sensitive, empathetic and/or gifted individuals.

Voice Message Therapy
After years of listening to the needs of my clients, I decided to adapt my approach to overcome the limitations and drawbacks that often arise in traditional therapy, whether in person or online. That is why I offer asynchronous therapy, which means that we do not need to be in the same place at the same time to work together.
To book a consultation or begin a course of therapy with me, please send me a text message or an audio message explaining the details of your situation and the reason for your enquiry. Once I have read or listened to it, I will let your story and your enquiry settle in my mind and will make notes of the information that comes to me over the course of several hours or days. When I feel that the ‘processing’ is complete, I will record my response as a voice message and send it to you by email.
I decided to offer therapy via voice messages because of the significant advantages it offers:
- Privacy: no waiting rooms and no need to show your face. I do not need to know what you look like in order to connect with you and your story. This level of privacy allows you to share from a deeper place of honesty and vulnerability, free from euphemisms, taboos, or shame.
- Freedom: a consultation model without the rigidity of a fixed schedule. We are not tied to our diaries or fixed appointments; you are free to book your consultation and send your message whenever you wish.
- Recording: one of the questions I was asked most often during my face-to-face consultations was, ‘Can I record you?’ With this format, you can rest assured that you’ll have my answers saved as audio files forever, allowing you to listen to them and reflect on them as often as you need.
- Complete Focus: we concentrate on what truly matters: the message itself. We remove the visual distractions of face-to-face therapy and avoid the mental chatter that often arises from seeing your own face on a screen during online sessions.
- Geographical Flexibility: we connect wherever you are, not only from any corner of the world, but also from within the spaces of your everyday life. You can listen to your session in the car, in the bath, in bed, while working, meditating, or on holiday.
- Depth: hearing is the first sense to develop in the womb and the last to fade when we die. It is the first sense to awaken in the morning and the last to fall asleep at night. Our ancestors healed through stories shared around the fire. Today, headphones become that fire, carrying my words directly to the soul, free from visual distractions.
Spiritual Integrative Therapy via voice message is undoubtedly a different kind of consultation for people with unique souls and minds.
