Deep Dives: Shadow Work Coaching

mary-ann-clements

The Shadow Work coaching I offer creates a shame free space for you to explore and find a way to move through things that feel stuck and immovable in your life and work.

These deep dives into something you are struggling with offer you a personal chance to explore something more deeply in a shame-free and confidential space.

This can be especially useful if you’re dealing with a particular challenge that feels like it keeps on 'coming around again' or blocking your way.

Whilst Shadow Work is a modality designed originally to explore personal and family dynamics, I deliberately take a structural and systemic view, and work with a deliberately anti-oppressive lens understanding that the culture around us and the oppressive systems we live with including patriarchy, white supremacy and capitalism create their own shadows and influence and shape both our personal experiences and trauma we carry.

These deep dives can also offer a space for you to explore how injustice and oppression show up in you and the things you are struggling with, working with them in this way can help you create more space to stand up for what you believe in & be part of imagining a radically different future.’

How it works

With first time Shadow Work clients, I offer a virtual package of 3 x 1.5-hour sessions usually over 6 weeks so a session every two weeks. This package allows the space for us to dive deep into the issue or topic that you want to work on.

This package currently costs £600.

Shadow Work is particularly useful for shifting recurring issues that you feel have you stuck in your life. We work with four main archetypes to identify areas where you may have learnt to suppress parts of yourself in the early years of your life that may now be continually holding you back.

I am a Certifed Shadow Work Coach. I am not currently offering these sessions face to face due to Covid-19.

‘I am surprised by the impact the sessions have had- I started to feel better about my situation even after the first session, and after the deeper work on session 3 I felt like I had been let free- completely euphoric then calm and content. I was not expecting the sessions to have such a direct or fast working effect. I am now left feeling like I have it within myself to cope with challenging situations, I just may need to dig a bit to listen to myself. I absolutely trust Mary Ann to conduct this work- as she might say herself, it sounds a bit whacky at first but it really works **and Mary Ann is a wonderful host on the journey.’
