Hi, My Name is Lydia Ignacio I am a LCSW in NY & FL and Transformational Coach providing combined energetic healing services. My areas of expertise include trauma, stress, and transitional life changes such as within the anxiety spectrum, depressive spectrum, PTSD, complex PTSD, relational trauma, trauma informed anxieties, depression, and PTSD, issues of identity, LGBTQ+ identity, relationship and relational challenges in couples counseling, LGBT+ couples counseling, and career development.
In our first session we will establish an understanding of the challenges you seek to address, my working style, skills, and expertise, comprehension of the therapeutic process and expectations, and identify session frequency, time, and date. In this session you will get a sense of our synergy, scope of treatment, and celebrate the beginning of your healing journey!
As an alternative healing therapist, I merge and create a unique blend of psychotherapy modalities and energetic healing practices to provide a comprehensive holistic healing treatment and journey. I am versed with a variety of traditional modalities. Most used include CBT, DBT, ACT, relational theory and therapy, interpersonal psychotherapy, supportive psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, change theories, and more. I also marry these interventions with energetic psychology practices such as EFT, EMDR, Trauma Resolution Energy Therapy, and energetic healing modalities such as sound, crystal, herbal bath, and candle clearing and healing practices.
A short synopsis of the holistic healing model at work: Jack is a 45 year old Irish fireman and Jill a 40 year old Hispanic nurse practitioner married for 22 years with a 7 year old daughter. Jack struggles with OCD and Narcissistic Personality Disorder and Jill struggles with ADHD and social anxiety. These individual mental health challenges create conflict and tension in how these interact and have been gravely escalating in the past 7 years. Their home was in array, their marriage estranged, the arguments were constant, and their little girl suffering developmentally. Jill could not muster the will to tend the house and engage with her husband, who has become obsessive and volatile about the mess, her weight gain, and her lack of impulse control in budgeting finances. These are not bad people. They are like you and I, just trying to live the American Dream. We got to work on identifying the gaps in their communication, learning conflict resolution skills, fostering compassion and understanding, trust and intimacy by sharing and discovering their individual challenges and how they interact, and tackling their strife at the pragmatic level (creating systems of communication and negotiation that adheres to boundaries), the energetic level (mending trust and highlighting commonalities and points of connection), the physiological level (optimizing their health), and psychological level (individual therapy and psychiatric follow up). The result: they learned to emotionally regulate, mitigate individual challenges, vastly improve communication and conflict resolution skills, and mended broken trust to regain intimacy--they reconciled their own healing with that of each others and now ready for the next chapter of their lives in unison. My unique blend of psychotherapy and energetic healing targets healing at the mind, body, and spiritual levels individually and in interaction with others. Heal the Self, Heal the World!™️
