Dearest reader.
If you’ve found your way to this page, it probably means I’ve caught your curiosity somehow. Good! You may be wondering what ‘Ainú’ means and who is Ainú?
Apart from my work as a clinical psychologist, where I’m used to work with people through verbal and mental pathway exploration, I also make space for the non-verbal. Ainú is the meaning for this ‘space’. That which can’t be or won’t be expressed verbally, but which moves from within, or ‘Ainú’ the meaning of the ‘soul’, the movement within the breath, within each inhale and exhale. A lot of this work happens subconsciously and has a more ‘mysterious’ aspect to it. Since a lot of memory goes through the body and is not necessarily always met consciously, opening up spaces for this ‘gaps’ in awareness can make room for great energy shifts to happen. Something which is often described as ‘awakenings’ of enlightenment within the somewhat ‘more spiritual’ communities.
The work can be applied through all kinds of methods. Most common in my arsenal right now are the intent and use of non-violent communication or as some like to call it ‘connecting communication’, yoga asana, breathwork excercices and laying hands above or on the body. But also voice therapy, musical and/or art excercices. In reality, life knows no limits to express itself... All depends on what you’ll need at the present moment.
As someone who has undergone various forms and methods of ‘healing’ of her own, I agree to the understanding that healing doesn’t submiss itself to one way or one set of theories only. A variety of intentions can be met through the use of the most complex and evidence-based machinery to the most simple offerings, such as a smile or a leaf falling from a tree.
From a mental point of view the ‘unseen’ is something dark, which may be scary. But in truth, it’s never the dark we fear. It is our light!
Wanna join me in a meet-up? I’ll be gladly to work with you and see how we can collaborate together!

In the latter, I’m currently specializing and able be used additionally to help support the therapy.
