Sometimes we know what we want to change, yet find ourselves falling into the same patterns. We may doubt ourselves, hold back from things we want to do, or find that understanding a problem doesn't necessarily help us move past it.
PSYCH-K® offers a way to explore the subconscious beliefs that may be influencing how we think, feel and respond to life. For me, it brings together the practical process of working with beliefs and a deeper exploration of who we are and what's possible for us.
As a facilitator, I work alongside you in a process that respects your experience, your choices and what matters to you. We start where you are, with no need to have everything figured out beforehand.
One of the things I appreciate about PSYCH-K® is that it offers a practical way to work with beliefs, while also inviting us to explore our relationship with ourselves and the world around us.
I first turned to PSYCH-K® in 2015, when I was finding my way through a broken heart. Since then, my own experience has taught me that the challenges we face can have deeper layers than we initially realise. Sometimes, change begins with one insight; at other times, it takes more time and exploration to understand what may be keeping us stuck.
Rather than simply talking about a challenge or trying to think our way through it, PSYCH-K® offers a structured process for working with beliefs at a deeper level.
Every session starts with you: what matters to you, what you'd like to explore and what feels relevant in your life right now. I see this as a do-with, not a do-to, process. My role is to guide the process, explain what we're doing and work alongside you—not to tell you what to believe or what you should want.
You don't need to arrive with a perfectly defined goal or know exactly what to expect. Curiosity and a willingness to explore are enough to begin.
We start with two simple questions:
“How is life now?” and “What would you like to experience instead?”
From there, we explore what you'd like to work on. You don't need to know how to get from where you are to where you'd like to be. You don't need to have all the answers before you begin.
As a PSYCH-K® facilitator, I'm not here to tell you what you need, interpret your experiences for you or decide what's best for you. You bring your own life experience and wisdom and my role is to hold a safe, respectful space for you and facilitate the PSYCH-K® process without imposing my own ideas or expectations.
In PSYCH-K®, this way of holding space is known as Isumataq. It's a role rooted in the understanding that the wisdom we seek doesn't have to come from someone else. As a facilitator, I hold the space for your own wisdom to emerge, while the process unfolds in a way that respects your experience and what you want to explore.
We can work together online, wherever you are, or meet in person if we're in the same place.
Before we begin, I'll explain what you can expect and answer any questions you may have. You don't need to know anything about PSYCH-K® beforehand.
For an online session, all you need is a quiet, comfortable space where you can focus on yourself and the process without unnecessary interruptions.
Whichever way we meet, we'll start with what's important to you and take it from there.
Everyone comes to PSYCH-K® with their own story, questions and hopes for change. The experience is different for each person and I believe the best way to understand what this work can mean is to hear from people who have experienced it themselves.
“Desi’s PSYCH-K® sessions are transformational and empowering. Her facilitation brings great emotional relief. She is authentic and very generous with her time. I highly recommend Desi for personal development work.”
Kawthar Benaissa · Naturopath and Coach · Spain“I was a little sceptical about doing a session online, but I was surprised by the impact in such a short time, especially over Zoom. Afterwards, I felt stronger, and that evening I experienced a new sense of self-love and self-acceptance. I’d wholeheartedly recommend a session as an addition to the work you're already doing on yourself.”
Otis Ogle · UK“I came to Desi with a problem that was affecting my relationship. During our sessions, we found that it was connected to situations from my childhood that I hadn't consciously remembered. Afterwards, I felt much calmer around the dog, and living together became possible. I'm glad I turned to Desi.”
Sunny Elle · BulgariaA personal story about discovering an unexpected connection and a different way forward.
"I came to Desi wanting to feel more settled and rooted in one place. I had already explored many approaches to personal development but I still felt caught in patterns I couldn't quite understand.
During our online PSYCH-K® session, we explored an experience from my childhood that I hadn't expected to be relevant. As the process unfolded, I began to recognise a connection between my parents' difficult marriage and patterns I'd been repeating in my own life.
What struck me was the feeling that Desi wasn't trying to tell me what was wrong or what I needed to do. It felt as though she was holding a space between me and the wiser part of myself—the part that knew what was ready to come to light.
One of the most important moments was realising that my parents' marriage was theirs, not mine. When Desi asked how I would like to feel about it instead, my answer was simple: “At peace.”
After the session, I felt as though a big emotional file had finally closed. My self-talk changed and I noticed more peaceful thoughts about relationships and the future. It felt like a part of myself had come back to me.
I'd explored many things before but this experience helped me approach something I'd struggled to resolve. I'm grateful to Desi for the compassion and support she brought to the process.
If you're hesitating, give yourself a chance and consider exploring what PSYCH-K® might offer you.
Thank you, Desi!"
Malwina Janiak, PolandYou can start with a single session or choose a bundle if you'd like to give yourself more time to explore what matters to you.
Each session lasts 90 minutes and can take place online or in person when we're in the same location.
A starting point if you'd like to explore a particular area of your life or experience PSYCH-K® for the first time.
Three sessions give us more room to explore a topic in depth or work with different areas of your life. Between sessions, you have time to integrate your experience, put things into practice and notice whether other obstacles come to the surface.
For those who want to explore a more multifaceted topic or work across several areas of life over a longer period.
Each session builds on the previous one, while the time between sessions gives you space to integrate changes, take action and notice what you'd like to explore next. Ideally, the six sessions are used within 12 weeks, allowing the process and your everyday experiences to inform one another.
You don't need to decide everything before we begin. A single session can be a good place to start, while a bundle offers more opportunity to return to a topic and explore it from different angles.
Choose the option that feels appropriate for you and for what you'd like to work on.
A Balance is the name given to a process in PSYCH-K® that aims to help transform beliefs that may be getting in the way of how you want to think, feel or experience life. It involves a series of steps that you carry out yourself, with my guidance as your facilitator.
Each Balance is connected to a belief or goal that matters to you. You don't need to know the steps beforehand — I'll guide you through the process.
Muscle testing is used in PSYCH-K® as a way to communicate with the subconscious mind. It involves checking muscle responses in relation to belief statements and is used to help guide the facilitation process.
As your facilitator, I'll carry out the muscle testing while you participate in the Balance yourself. My role is to guide the process, not to do the work on your behalf or decide what is right for you.
Online sessions use a process called surrogation. Because we aren't physically in the same room, I carry out the muscle testing on your behalf while guiding you through the Balance over a video call.
You still do the Balance yourself, following the steps I guide you through. Surrogation allows us to work together remotely, while keeping you actively involved in your own process.
