Threshold Work
Threshold work is for people in periods of rupture, disillusionment, or transition. times when familiar identities, roles, or ways of making sense of life no longer hold, and something new has not yet formed.
Between times.
This work is not therapy or coaching. I won’t be activley teaching techniques to regulate emotions, fix symptoms, or move you toward a tidy outcome or measure ‘progress’. Instead, we attend carefully to what is breaking down, and what is asking to be lived through, without rushing to resolution.
The focus is on noticing how larger shifts show up in ordinary, embodied ways: in habits, relationships, attention, decisions, dreams, art, and daily life.
We work with symbolic, mythic, ancestral, and imaginal material as it intersects with the practical realities of living - grounded in the body, and in a radical spirituality, not abstraction or bypass. We keep it REAL while working in the liminal.
Navigating passages requires a different kind of presence. This work cultivates the capacity to stand in the uncertainty, to discern what wants to die and what wants to be born, and to move through initiation without collapsing into either despair or false certainty.
We can explore which of the 13 (+) Passages you may be traversing or standing on the threshold of.
Sessions may involve dialogue, dreamwork, myth and story, restorying imagination, tarot, movement, sound, trance, art, or ritual forms of attention.
At times, I may suggest - or we co-create - simple, concrete tasks or practices to be carried into everyday life. These are not solutions or self-improvement exercises, but ways of cultivating new experiences, discernment, attention, and endurance while something is ending and something else is forming.
Rather than reassurance or repair, this work emphasises curiosity over certainty, discernment over explanation, and presence over soothing.
This work is not gentle in the conventional sense, though it is held with care, clarity, and firm boundaries. It is not suitable for those seeking stabilisation, diagnosis, symptom management, or those who are currently experiencing acute trauma symptoms.
Stand-alone Tarology and Dreamwork are available for focused threshold inquiry.
All sessions with Dr Mendy are conducted online. on Mondays and Tuesdays.

This is for people who wish to be guided and supported in deeper personal development and transformation work. This is not a clinical or therapeutic session. Its preparation for initiation.
You’ll enter these sessions with a capacity for self-reflection and embodied resilience, as I’ll be encouraging you to delve deeper into your psyche and soul.
Tarology sessions can be stand alone. These sessions require openness to deep collaborative dialogue between you, me, the tarot.

I recommend weekly sessions intially - at least 4-6 sessions - before extending to ‘maintenance’ sessions after the inital immersion.
i.e. regular check-in’s every 1 - 12 months.
