As an Integrative Psychiatrist, I use both Western Medicine approaches as well as Tai Chi / Qigong movements (with adults, adolescents and Deaf/Deaf-Blind population), Qigong Emotional Release techniques (tapping on the 4 Golden Wheels as taught to me by Robert Peng), Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping on acupuncture points) and Mindfulness and/or Guided Meditation tools and techniques to assist people with physical issues or anxiety and depression to understand the power of who they truly are and their connectedness to All that Is. I review the holistic heath system and where/how Western Medicine affects focuses on the physical and cognitive-behavioral/mindfulness focuses on thoughts/emotions—- while Qigong, acupuncture, and other energetic approaches focus on the etheric /vitalising Body. I teach people how to unblock their meridians specifically linked to the emotions they are stuck in based on their own faulty beliefs about their self. I have used meditation, visualization, color and sound / vibrational Medicine - including Qigong - for my own physical health issues for personal transformation. This created a desire for me to help as many people as possible understand their own internal power to heal if they are willing to put in the effort to practice mindfully.
