About me
Hi. I’m Nani Solares Personal Growth and Relationship Expert
As is the case with all of us, my life consists of many roles and responsibilities. However, of all the different aspects of my life, none is more important to me than the one that pertains to the journey of personal and spiritual growth. It is the primary emphasis of my life and informs the direction of my choices and life’s work.
My mission
A natural desire to help…
My deepest desire is to help others heal and to encourage people to embark on the inner journey of healing and evolution that will transform their lives and allow them to fulfill their soul’s destiny. As a psychotherapist and life coach, my personal growth work, along with my graduate studies and training in Psychology and Counseling, converge to bring about a holistic, energetic, and powerful approach to inner healing and personal growth.
I have worked in a variety of settings, including partial hospitalization, prison, agency, and private practice, which has given me firsthand insight into the mental health and emotional issues that plague humanity. Sadly, there are many. This is why I have made it my life’s mission to shine my light in the world and to do my part to help.
We all have our own lane in life. What distinguishes me from many of my wonderful peers, is that I seamlessly combine intellectual knowledge and spiritual wisdom in a unique way. This provides my clients and followers with a well-rounded and holistic approach that facilitates complete healing from the inside out.
My Approach to Psychotherapy and Life Coaching
Compassion
I am a firm believer that we cannot take someone somewhere we have not been. I have a deep sense of compassion and empathy toward humanity in general because I know that this life is not easy. I will never judge anyone for anything they tell me or anything they do or don’t do, because it is not my role here to judge but to help and support.
Intuition
Through meditative practices and deep spiritual work, I have developed profound intuitive abilities. I rely heavily on my intuition to get a sense of where people are, energetically speaking. I believe a good therapist hears what is not said and sees what is not displayed. Often our intuition can help us perceive information that our other senses cannot pick up on.
Root causes
When I work with individuals I always seek to find the root causes to their problems. In fact, if we do not remove the root, we cannot heal the issue. Within the first evaluative session, I usually have a good idea as to the main issues affecting the person, as well as the root causes maintaining them.
The Mind
A primary aspect of my counseling work is to help individuals become aware of subconscious, self-defeating belief systems. Once they become aware of these belief systems, I invariably educate them on the principles of neuroplasticity (in layman’s terms), as these will empower them to change their own brains in real time and during the course of their daily lives, which is when the majority of healing takes place.
Releasing blockages
My greatest frustration as a psychotherapist has been in working with individuals for an extended period of time yet little to no change has been obtained. In all of these cases, I have found the presence of energetic blockages within the individual that are creating stagnation and resistance to change. For this reason, it is not uncommon for me to use various energetic approaches to facilitate healing and the release of blockages.
My philosophy
I believe in the inner power within each of us
I believe in the inner journey – the soul’s journey — which leads us to own our personal power and to discover our true identity. I believe this is the path where our life’s purpose can be found. Also, I am a great believer in the power of the mind, the importance of learning to master our minds, and the fact that our thoughts will inevitably create our reality. This too takes a central role in my counseling work and teachings.
I believe that all humans are capable of great change – as much as we desire actually. I believe that the journey of life is to love, to learn, and to self-actualize, which is to become everything that we can possibly be. And it is my great joy to walk alongside others as they find the power to heal their lives and reach their innate potential.
