Welcome fellow NDEr! My name is Elizabeth, most people call me Beth. Have you noticed that as an NDEr, it can be challenging to integrate your experience into your everyday life? I have also had that experience. Challenges of integrating such a powerful experience into everyday life can be challenging and that is normal. Each of us will find our own ways to bring lessons learned in the light into our normal routines. We can integrate the lessons along with the many changes that impact our lives after a Near Death Experience. I’m here to support you, as you explore ways to balance having one foot on the other side and the other foot right here on earth.

All parts of you are welcome here. As humans we are perfectly imperfect beings; we need only be who we are. Growth and change is a process. I, as your therapist, counselor, or coach, will work with you to support and help you integrate your NDE.

Being a Near Death Experiencer (NDEr) has strengthened my belief of this truth: you are loved unconditionally from before your birth until after the end of your earth life. Sure, this can be challenging to believe about ourselves, and this is something we can address together.

My NDE brought light, unconditional love, the loss of fear of death, and many other positive experiences into my life in ways that I had not experienced them before. Along with those experiences, I also have a deep and painful sense of loss, the experience of my NDE being misunderstood, not having support from many in my community and family. Some of these experiences can be traumatic. Looking at NDEs through the lens of trauma can be helpful if you are having similar experiences. Addressing the traumatic effects of an NDE can support some experiencers to fully integrate their experience.
