Professional Qualifications and Experience
Dr Karen JanesDr Karen Janes began her career in healing and healthcare as a psychologist some 15 years ago. She obtained her Doctorate in Clinical Psychology with the University of London and worked in the British National Health Services and charitable organisations before setting up her healing practice. She has a wide range of experience in mental and physical health and has worked successfully with clients from age 2 to 92. Karen came across Reiki nearly ten years ago, through friends who were learning to use this healing system. This prompted her interest in ways of working with people beyond her existing psychological therapy skills. She progressed through the system of Reiki training over a number of years, completing her Master Teacher degree in 2006. During this time she also began learning other healing techniques with an international group of energy healers – what came to be known as Applied Energy Flow (AEF). As the final string to her bow, she is proud to be one of a very few practitioners attuned to use Emotional Realignment Therapy (ERT) worldwide. Based in Wiltshire in the UK, Karen now specialises in Energy Medicine, utilising the benefits of Applied Energy Flow and Emotional Realignment Therapy. She is dedicated to bringing her full range of skills and experience to her clients. Karen continues to enjoy teaching Reiki and meditation, as well as specific techniques within AEF sessions. This forms part of her commitment to offering a range of valuable self-help tools to enable people to maintain their own energy and health. Becoming involved in establishing and running the Holistic Faculty of the British Psychological Society strengthened Karen’s interest in working with like-minded colleagues. The Faculty provided a forum for greater awareness of, and access to, a broad range of approaches to healthcare and wellbeing beyond mainstream medical treatments. Karen sees the development of Applied Energy Flow as a system of healing as a continuation of this way of working. She is therefore very excited to be on the Board of Directors of Applied Energy Flow because it is the culmination of many years of work to bring this innovative healing method into being
Dr Janes’ Practice
The aspects of Applied Energy Flow that most appeal to Karen are the core principles of working ‘with’ rather than ‘on’ our clients; keeping focused on energy; and helping people to help themselves. By tuning into an individual’s energy Karen is able to apply appropriate vibrations of energy and utilise her range of tools to maximise the benefits her clients can achieve. Karen sees personal development as an essential part of working as an AEF practitioner and considers this to be a life-long process: a healer is only as good as what they have healed within themselves. As a result she has made a commitment within her work to always do her best to act in the interests of her clients and to continue her own personal and professional development. The best way she has found to do this for herself is the same as what she offers her clients: the tools of AEF and ERT. Karen believes there can never be a guarantee that any particular treatment can resolve all problems. What she is able to guarantee is that she brings the best of her attention, support and skill to every session.
