Listening Service
A space to be heard. A space to just be.
In these times of collective uncertainty, many people feel isolated, overwhelmed, or unseen. Sometimes what we need most is someone who will simply listen without judgment, advice, or expectation.
So many are carrying invisible weight — stories, sensations, energies — with nowhere safe to lay them down. Many traditional support may not always be accessible, have a long referral waiting period, nor meet the body, soul, and the subtle realms.
Whilst this is not a psychotherapeutic practice, many find that having a space to decompress, that is filled with radical acceptance and deep listening, can make a real difference. Sometimes, being truly heard and held is enough to ease the overwhelm that keeps us stuck.
In this space we aim to offer a holistic and multidimensional approach, holding space for what is arising, whether you’re going through something heavy or simply need to be met in silence.
Sometimes your story needs to be spoken aloud; other times, simply sitting with your feelings is enough. Either way, this space holds you gently, without pressure or expectation.
With trainings in:
Listening skills through NGOs
Multidimensional Trauma-Informed Approaches
Brainspotting
Energy medicine and quantum transfiguration
A committed study of the dharma
This space is rooted in compassion, trauma awareness, and mindfulness offers something different: a place to feel safe, and a reminder that you’re not alone.
This service is intended as a safe space for those we’ve come into contact with through the school, in some capacity.
While we are not a funded body or part of the national health service, we aim to keep this service accessible.
It is designed to serve as a bridge for those who may be waiting for formal referrals, or who find traditional therapeutic or coaching services financially out of reach. We ask for contributions to help cover time and expenses, while remaining committed to offering support where it’s most needed.
