I'm Kanina, a Spirit Release & Complex Energy Practitioner, specialising in helping people understand and resolve unusual spiritual and energetic experiences. I'm also a Spiritual Counsellor, Psychic Development Tutor, Psychic, Medium and Reiki Master Teacher.
My involvement with spirit release began nearly 30 years ago through personal experience when I was 27. At the time, I didn't even know what spirit release was, let alone that spirit release practitioners existed. What began unexpectedly led me down a path that, several years later, developed into helping others and has shaped much of my work ever since. In many ways, it was also the beginning of my own journey back to myself.
Over the years, my understanding of this field has grown considerably. I've learned that not everything that presents as spiritual or energetic necessarily has its origins there. Equally, something that can be understood psychologically doesn't automatically exclude a spiritual or energetic component. That perspective is central to how I work today.
I later trained and qualified as a Spiritual Counsellor, developing a substantial grounding in counselling theory and therapeutic practice alongside the spiritual and energetic elements of the training. I have practised as a counsellor since qualifying in 2015 and have continued to develop this side of my work through training in Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy and other trauma-informed approaches. I am accredited with the Complementary Medical Association.
I spent nearly a decade at Sue Allen's original School of Intuition & Healing in London, which closed when Sue retired in 2021. I joined initially as a student and later became a tutor. I trained and qualified there in Spiritual Counselling before teaching on the course myself. I also conceived the school's Spiritual Development class and taught across multiple levels of psychic development, as well as running workshops.
In addition, Sue and I co-created and taught a number of international retreats together, spanning spirit release and a broad range of spiritual, therapeutic and personal development work.
My wider spiritual training has included the College of Psychic Studies, the Spiritualist Association of Great Britain and the Arthur Findlay College, alongside training with a number of individual teachers and practitioners.
I undertake a minimum of 25 hours of professional CPD each year, continuing to develop my knowledge and skills across counselling, trauma-informed and somatic approaches.
Supervision has also become an important part of my work. I've been supervising practitioners since 2019 and hold Level 2 APT Accreditation in Providing Good Clinical Supervision.
Nearly three decades on from that first introduction to spirit release, I'm still learning, still questioning and still fascinated by people, the experiences we have and what makes us who we are.
I have known and worked with Kanina for many years, firstly as a student and then as a tutor at the School of Intuition & Healing of which I was the Founder and Director for 11 years until I retired in 2021.
Kanina has always demonstrated an absolute dedication to her spiritual work and a commitment to assisting her students in reaching their potential. She is very professional and genuine, with many years of training and experience behind her, and works with integrity in a grounded, boundaried way.
Kanina trained as a Spiritual Counsellor at the School and then became a tutor on the course. Since qualifying she has gone on to train in Somatic Trauma Therapy. Kanina offers supervision, counselling, healing and spirit release internationally.
Kanina is a very experienced teacher who teaches spiritual and psychic development in ongoing classes as well as workshops and retreats in a wide variety of subjects including working with Guides; spirit release and space clearing; consent and curses; psychic attack; soul retrieval; ancestral and past life healing; cord cutting; spiritual bypassing, self responsibility, energy management and personal development. I highly recommend her.
