Paola Bobadilla
I am a Chilean-trained psychologist and holistic transpersonal practitioner with over 25 years of experience supporting individuals in their personal and spiritual development across Chile, England, and the Netherlands.
In 2007, I transitioned from a conventional clinical psychology approach to a more integrative and transpersonal path, following a profound shift in my professional and personal direction. I deepened my studies in mystical and spiritual traditions as a direct disciple of Z'ev ben Shimon Halevi at the School of the Soul in London. This marked the beginning of a lifelong commitment to inner work, meditation, and the study of Kabbalah.
Since then, I have developed a holistic approach that bridges psychological insight with spiritual understanding. I work with individuals who recognize that unresolved trauma and psychological patterns can limit their growth, and who feel ready to engage in a deeper process of transformation and expansion of consciousness.
My work integrates over 20 years of study and practice in meditation and Kabbalah. I offer Kabbalistic analysis using the Tree of Life as a framework for understanding life patterns, challenges, and potential from a soul-centered perspective.
I am also the creator of Dance of the Soul, a body-based method that supports emotional release, integration, and reconnection with the self.
I offer sessions in person in The Hague and online. My approach is intuitive, structured, and tailored to each individual. When appropriate, I incorporate complementary tools such as essential oils to support emotional balance and integration.
• Deep understanding and exploration of the personality, using the kabbalistic diagram of the Tree of Life.
• Dream analysis using Jungian Art therapy technique.
• Meditation as a tool to deepen self-knowledge and consciousness expansion, and as a natural transformative method for psychological disbalances.
• Creative approach to resolve personal and family conflicts. Movement-art-play tools are powerful expressions to help individuals achieve emotional, cognitive, physical, and social integration.
• Representation of psychological conflicts on Jungian archetypal symbology.
• Exploration of unconscious patterns and components of deep inner conflict, physical pain and undesirable customs and behaviours, using the sacred kabbalistic diagram Tree of Life.
• Use of natural oils (Doterra) and their application through Aromatouch Technique relaxing massage, to support and enhance the entire process.
My Approach
TRANSPERSONAL STUDIES
“TP attempts to integrate timeless Wisdom with modern western Psychology and translate spiritual principles into scientifically grounded, contemporary language. It addresses the full spectrum of Human Psycho Spiritual development from our deepest wounds and needs to the existential crisis of the human being, to the most transcendent capacities of our consciousness.” (M.Caplan)
DANCE OF THE SOUL
It is a type of Dance Movement Therapy. Dance of the Soul intends to awaken and repair the body from repressed unconscious complexes, so it becomes a healthy vessel to house the Psyche and Soul, and get back in touch with emotions and feelings, promoting self-awareness, self-esteem and mind&body balance.
MEDITATION
I’ve been practicing meditation for longer than 20 years, experiencing its benefits myself. Thereby I integrated Meditation in my professional practice as an effective way for transformation. I teach an Integrative way of Meditation and muscle relaxation to naturally overcome bodily related issues, gain self-knowledge and consciousness expansion.
DANCE-PLAY-ART
I use creative tools for people to express their repressed thoughts and emotions. Children and adults do not need to talk about their inner conflicts, but they are expressed in a Creative way, allowing painful thoughts and feelings to rise gently to the surface of consciousness, be addressed and worked through.
