The Process

Holistic Healing In
Sydney

Dr Geoff takes a holistic and integrative approach to wellness by using a combination of psychotherapy, coaching, meditation and energetic healing to relieve emotional and physical stress.

He developed his approach as a result of his research and professional training across a range of fields including counselling, hypnotherapy, yoga, shamanism, spiritual energetics and clinical psychology*.

The four-stage approach works at a conscious, subconscious, somatic and energetic level to help decrease the stress contributing to dis-ease in the body, mind and spirit.

Principles from psychological talking therapies, hypnotherapy and coaching are blended with Dr Lyons’ intuitive guidance to help you process your life challenges and build resilience, insight and direction.
Meditation and yogic breathwork are included to build mindfulness, spiritual connection and intuition while further reducing stress.

And a range of spiritual and energy healing techniques are used to clear energetic blockages that talking and body work miss, thereby strengthening spirituality as well as emotional and physical wellness.

His explicit use of spiritual energetics is what sets him apart from other “mainstream” coaching and counselling approaches that tend to dismiss this content as irrelevant “pseudoscience”.

Dr Geoff’s holistic health and healing process facilitates empowerment by leaving a person with a clearer connection with their own wisdom and the divine.

What is a “healing”

Spiritual healings are a central part of Dr Geoff’s Spirit Based Therapy. Spiritual healings have been present in all cultures throughout time. It is a type of healing modality that relies on spiritual elements to bring relief. There are many different types of spiritual healing across the world, some common ones include shamanic healing, laying of hands, and reiki (energy healing). Dr Geoff’s healing sessions are a combination of several healing methods, but are heavily influenced by his training in shamanic healing and his Christian heritage.

What happens in a healing?

After a period of counselling you will be guided to lay down on a table or a comfortable mat on the ground. Dr Geoff will prepare the space with some prayers then guide you into a relaxed state using specialized techniques. While you are in this relaxed, meditative state healing practices including prayer and energy balancing are used to bring about a deep sense of peace.

The energy healings are a sacred practice and need to be treated as such. Language such as “God” or “Christ” may be used but you do not have to be spiritual or religious to receive a healing session and you will never be coerced into converting into any particular belief system. The healings can also be given to anyone of any religion or tailored to your belief system.

Geoff Lyons is fully trained and insured to provide energy healing interventions. His energy psychology work supports people in the community from cultures and subcultures that have religious or non-religious spiritual beliefs or are simply interested in this topic.

Geoff Lyons is not claiming his or any energy healing is an effective treatment for psychological disorder or should be used as a replacement to empirically-supported psychological interventions. People with psychiatric or health conditions should consult with their GP before booking an appointment.

Does it work?

Spiritual healing and energy therapies sounds fanciful. Does it really work? This form of therapy is not an “empirically-supported” treatment; however, scientists do conduct research on energy medicine. 

Various peer-reviewed studies have found that energy medicine could be helpful for stress, pain, anxiety and quality of life. You can find a peer-reviewed journal article here that discusses what its like to experience energy medicine.

Dr Geoff also conducts his own research on energy medicine.

"We highly recommend Geoff as a couples therapist. After experiencing a difficult period in our relationship, we sought Geoff's help to reconnect with each other. We particularly sought someone with Geoff's qualifications and experience. Geoff provided an environment in which we felt comfortable to express our feelings and emotions. He carefully guided us through various exercises designed to repair our relationship and provided us with strategies to use in our everyday lives. Geoff is highly professional, caring and genuinely enjoys assisting people through difficult times."

"After my cancer relapse in 2019, my life completely changed....it was a very different experience from how I survived cancer ten years previously. Due to physical disability, chronic pain, and inability to return to work, my life became a struggle. Some days I did not think I would make it, I was physically and emotionally drained, but Geoff saved me! He is not only an exceptional practitioner but a very caring human being. Through a combination of psychology and healing, I felt I was able to "reset" and heal my soul. I don't think I have ever experienced anything like this. I cannot explain how it works, but it does. I believe it is a reason I am living today.”
