I was born in Brazil and immigrated to Canada with my husband in 1990. I was first introduced to SoulCollage® in 2018 when a friend of mine invited me to a workshop. I was not able to attend, but I was intrigued so I sought out another class. I was surprised to learn that an old colleague (I had not seen her for longer than a decade) was part of the event. Can you say synchronicity? Of course, I had to reach out to her. I always liked her and loved interacting with her.

Before I go any further, I need to let you know that I am a skeptic and look at things with big analytical eyes before I “buy into it.” When I got introduced to the cards and the person was instructing us to listen to what the cards had to say . . . Well, I wondered what she was talking about. Cards talking to me?!?! Cards talking to each other?!? Being respectful and curious about other people’s experiences, I gave it a try. You also need to know that I have been a psychologist for over twenty years and consider myself a very self-aware person . . . or so I thought! Don’t get me wrong, I am self-aware, but SoulCollage® brought a completely different level of awareness.

I was so impressed with what I was learning about myself and the process. Then, I began to see the potential to work with my clients. By the end of 2018 I became a SoulCollage® Facilitator. I am always looking for ways to explore my deck and learn about SoulCollage® in general.

As a psychologist and personally, I think what I like most about the process is the non-threatening way we can learn about ourselves, and what floats or sinks our boats. SoulCollage® is gentle, accepting, and inclusive – personally and collectively. I love these aspects. I love that we embrace all parts of ourselves – there is no good or bad – just what is.

I would like to share one of my success stories. I have a client that I worked with for a few years, and we were making progress – slowly but surely. He was quite reserved and resistant. One day I decided to introduce him to SoulCollage® and oh boy! The progress from there was leaps and bounds. The Neters helped him to go where he was unable to go before. He was able to embrace aspects of his personality that he would not even admit to at first. He still has a long way to go (don’t we all??), but he is so much happier and more aware. And this is only one of many stories that I can share. I can hardly wait to get SoulCollage® into more people’s lives and let them go with it and find their own treasures.

In my personal life, SoulCollage® has been a source of support and insight. I feel that I embrace the “contradictory” parts of myself more easily. I can also work on the parts that I am not fond of with more compassion and acceptance. In times of doubt or overwhelm, I can reach to my deck and I always get what I need. What a blessing!!!

If you are new to SoulCollage®, I would like to encourage you to be patient with the process. Respect your pace. At times, the cards may not speak to you, or you may feel that you are making things up. Sometimes it can be challenging and sometimes we don’t want to hear or accept what is coming through the cards. That is just fine. Do not rush the process. Don’t give up! Take one day at a time and keep opening your heart and your mind to them. When the time is right, I know you will get what you need. It is your journey and nobody else’s.
