Anne Little has an MA in Transpersonal Psychology,
and an MA in Counselling Psychology and is currently
completing her doctoral dissertation for a PhD in
Transpersonal Psychology. She has been studying and
practicing Holotropic Breathwork
tm
since 1989, she
trained with and was certified as a breathwork
facilitator by Dr. Stanislav and Christina Grof in
1993. Anne leads Holotropic Breathwork
tm
retreats
and workshops in both Canada and the United States
as well as guiding individuals and couples through
private breathwork sessions.
Anne is studying and writing about the effects of
long-term engagement with non-ordinary states of
consciousness for the purposes of
healing--specifically about healing ancestral and
collective issues; and also about some of the ways
that an awakening of kundalini can impact
consciousness. She is currently involved in writing
three (unpublished) works: (Healing
multigenerational family patterns using non-ordinary
states of consciousness; The Serpent Way: A defacto
approach to relationship in a braver and kinder
world; and Divine Darkness: The sacred path
of female empowerment) as well as several
articles.
Anne has a private practice in Vancouver with a
focus in transpersonal psychology. She has 15 years
of experience in the field of counselling. For the
last several years, Anne has been an avid student of
shamanism, and also of Tantric Buddhism and of Hindu
tantra. She uses her knowledge of these areas in
addition to her psychological background in her work
with others. Anne specializes in helping individuals
who are experiencing spiritual emergency and
spiritual emergence issues, especially shamanic
crisis, kundalini energies and psychic opening. She
has also been a student of Western astrology since
1994 (studied with renowned writer and scholar
Richard Tarnas who has linked astrological
archetypes to Grof's map of consciousness). Anne's
knowledge of archetypal astrology enables her to
offer clients a holistic, transpersonal perspective
of their psychospiritual issues and of their inner
work using non-ordinary states.
Her compassion, woven with in-depth experience
gleaned from her own spiritual journey, as well as a
sincere desire to be of service to others, infuse
her ability to assist those in need of support and
guidance through life's challenges and transition
periods. Because of the intensity of her own inner
process, Anne is able to effectively support
journeyers through any kind of process that they may
encounter.
