In this bonus episode of The Awakened Therapist Podcast, I share about the often-unspoken dimension of healing: subtle energy. While most of us were trained to focus on cognition, behavior, or even somatic awareness, subtle energy is woven through every therapeutic encounter. It is the felt sense of presence, the unspoken resonance between therapist and client, and the coherence (or incoherence) that shapes the safety and depth of the therapeutic field.
I explore why subtle energy matters in psychotherapy, how ignoring it can create misattunement, and how attuning to it supports deeper repair. You’ll also hear about ways to recognize subtle energy in your own sessions and hold it with integrity, neutrality, and compassion.
