Christel is an individual and group facilitator, who uses a wide variety of modalities to access the universal language of symbol: GIM - Guided Imagery and music, sound healing, process art, MARI, numerology, shamanic practices, nature and soul holidays. The various processes allow her clients to go on a journey of discovery into their own consciousness - unlocking their full human potential. This facilitates spiritual and personal growth, transformation and healing. Christel believes in the healing power of symbol, expressed especially through music and art, as well as each individuals own potential to heal themselves.
