In our practice, we integrate three different energy medicine modalities to create a cumulative effect of releasing old blocks. The result is to allow you to move forward with renewed sense of empowerment and possibility. Although there are many practitioners who use these modalities individually, we are unique in integrating them into a seamless whole, which produces powerful results for our clients.
Intuitive Therapy/Counseling
In traditional psychotherapy, the therapist provides a holding space in which a client is offered an opportunity to develop her own insights and change perspectives. This may take a very long time (in some cases, years). Further more, intellectual insights do not always translate into change.
Mimi Ratner brings a different approach to therapeutic counseling. Her approach is grounded in the understanding that true change is only possible in the present moment. Consequently, Mimi's focus is to bring the client completely and fully into the present. Grounded in years of experience and training, Mimi employs her intuition to shed light on the root causes of the client's problem and offer guidance. based on that. A single session with Mimi frequently results in more profound change than years of traditional therapy. The success of her approach has been verified by years of practice and hundreds of satisfied clients. Underlying this approach is the idea of unity of consciousness, which states that information exists in multiple fields just outside our normal level of awareness. All that's required is for us to tune into that information. Intervention in a single area leads to change in the entire system: i.e., when we get to a truth, everything else shifts.
Emotional Freedom Technique
Following a session with Mimi, Mark works with the client to begin transforming the identified limiting beliefs and thought patterns using the Emotional Freedom Technique, or EFT. EFT is a form of energy psychology that combines elements of brief psychotherapy, Chinese medicine, and EMDR to create immediate, lasting relief to long-standing emotional and behavioral issues. In the process of treatment, clients learn the technique of meridian tapping and can begin to use it on their own. EFT is quick and effective, often getting to core issues untouched by years of therapy. It is also a powerful way to address the many daily issues life presents: difficult coworkers, financial stress, relationship anxieties, writer's block and other impediments to creativity, performance anxiety, public speaking, and various pet peeves. EFT works by removing the negative emotion surrounding the issues and fostering an attitude of true empowerment and well-being. It has also been shown to be an effective tool in pain management, depression, and anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorders.

Body-Based Energetic Release
Your half-day intensive will conclude with a body-based energy release session that will help deepen your insights while connecting you with a sense of self-acceptance and compassion. The specific modality employed in our practice is one of Healing Touch. Healing Touch is a compassionate, integrative therapy in which practitioners use their hands in a heart-centered and intentional way to support and facilitate your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health and self-healing. Healing Touch uses gentle, light or near-body touch to clear, balance, energize and support the human energy system in an effort to promote healing for the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. It is a complementary, integrative therapy that can be used in conjunction with other therapies. The goal of Healing Touch is to restore harmony and balance in the energy system thus creating an optimal environment for the body's innate tendency for healing to occur. It facilitates a deep sense of calm and relaxation as well as overall and specific responses for body-mind-spirit healing. Clients frequently report feeling nurtured and energized. Used in combination with the other two modalities, a Healing Touch session can be a profoundly healing and transformative experience. Healing Touch has been shown to be effective in alleviating depression and anxiety, pain management, and trauma release.
