Massachusetts therapist Leslie Brooks speaks of how she works:

How we Begin
My “Healing of the Soul” work is, quite simply, psychotherapy from the heart with the added perspective of the soul.
It begins with your entrance into the magical land of my little cottage. As we talk together, I get a feel for who you are and what you hope to get out of our work together. You get a feel for who I am and what I can offer you. We begin a relationship that will parallel the most pivotal developmental relationships of your life except that this time you are heard and held (metaphorically) in unconditional love.
I will assist you in getting clear about your issues in this lifetime and the
soul’s truth beneath them. I will also assist you in developing tools that you can
use in your day-to-day life.
I use the word “assist” rather than “help” because I have confidence in the inherent strength of your higher self’s ability and tendency towards healing. I see us as colleagues working together to achieve the same goals.

the soul level and RoHun
On the soul level, using RoHun, I teach you to access your higher soul Self.
You will gain insight into your soul’s purpose on this planet as well as how this lifetime’s issues play into the lessons your soul means you to learn.
Before each session, I pray and meditate and connect with the beautiful love and light of Source. I do this until I can be a clear channel of that love and light. In this way, I am fully present and supported so that I can support you in your goals to support yourself.
When we begin the RoHun part of the work, I teach you to connect to this light also. I then guide you to finding the part of yourself that first created the issue and we work with that part (usually a child).
We follow the child back in time. We locate and release the emotions and faulty thoughts that have affected your entire lifetime up to this point. I guide you to loving the child until s/he is completely healed and bathed in light from within. During this time, we also release any blocks, any energy that is not light, right into the light for transmutation and healing.
During the sessions, we weave back and forth between psychotherapy and
soulwork, between this lifetime’s present and past, and the no-time perspective of the soul. We develop a profound heart connection as I guide and follow you in your healing.
In time, you move through your issues with ease and compassion for yourself and with the certainty that you are loved, held, and cherished for who you are and who you have always been.

Working with Couples
When I work with couples, we again weave between psychotherapy and soulwork, this time doing joint RoHun.
After determining the presenting issues, I teach both individuals how to connect with their loving/soul Selves. Then we work, one at a time in the same session to find the source of the issue and heal that source, as described above.
In this way, the work is non-blaming and each individual moves to a place of understanding and compassion for the other. I work very closely in a very loving way with both individuals in the couple, coaching them to communicate and negotiate with open hearts.
It is truly amazing to see how a couple can move from discontent to compassion in such a short time.

Working with Teens
With teenagers, I work the same way but simpler, faster and more playfully. I give them a place to be completely who they are, giving them lots of encouragement and positive feedback and yet still connecting them with their higher soul Self. They too come to recognize, understand, and take responsibility for their part in their actions and reactions.
I generally use Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy® rather than RoHun with teens, as well as perhaps art therapy or sandplay, depending on the individual. This is in combination with the interpersonal relationship that we develop.
My goal here is more to anchor a strong inner state that teens can access any time they want to feel better.  Most teens are searching for who they are, trying on different roles, hypervigilant about how they look and act with their peers, and in an in-between place developmentally between child and adult. They want responsibility and want to be treated with respect yet they still have a longing to play and dream and imagine. I offer them a safe place to explore who they are.

Whoever my client or clients are, I love this work. I am in awe of the depth and the beauty of each person I meet. I am so very grateful for the opportunity to love in this Healing of the Soul work. I thank each and every client for all that they teach me along the way.
