Dr. Mendy Neralic
CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST, GUIDE, YOGA PRACTITIONER
I’m a clinical psychologist with a background and interest in various traditions and approaches.
At its heart, my approach is alchemical, dialogical and co-creative.
I incorporate mind-body practices from traditional cognitive-behavioural psychology (CBT, ACT) and Transpersonal, Depth, and Archetypal Psychology with Somatic approaches (Hakomi, DBR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy).
I also naturally invite the wisdom of spiritual and religious traditions, yoga philosophy, energy medicine, and mystical and esoteric practices, including ancestral healing, mythology, dreaming, tarot, and trance.
With two decades of experience, I continue, with curiosity, to unlock the right doors for guidance. Each woman’s specific hurts and tender wounds need a unique alchemical blend — a tincture of this, a soak in that, combined with some time spent there..
As I draw in and weave through the wisdom and practices, your experiences and responses further inform the “what next” and particular recipe for your needs - you are an active participant in the process - so we dialoague, dance, experiment, and are curious together.
The greater aim is to help each person be a more conscious, embodied, and engaged human - no longer tied to past hurts and victimhood, you live from and for yourself, but also in relationship with others and the greater community and cosmology.
MY OFFERINGS
I aim to help you navigate the spaces between what was, what is, and what will become.
My role is to encourage you to cross thresholds and initiate you through change and the rites of passage. I’ll help you re-story your life and develop and refine your own alchemical practices for life-long inner guidance and support.
