This is a message from Dr Claudia Nielsen, a researcher and longstanding member of the Scientific & Medical Network:

Are you interested in or had experience of out-of-body experiences, lucid-dreaming or astral travel? Spiritual communications, visions or near-death-experiences?

Have you ever been in counselling or therapy and did you feel the need to talk about your beliefs or experiences with your therapist? If so, did they help you understand and explore these areas – or were these issues somehow off-limits?

I am exploring these under-explored and even taboo subjects, including beliefs and experiences of death and its aftermath.

In particular, I am conducting research with the University of Chester to explore how much conventional therapy and counselling help people to get to grips with this aspect of life or whether even there it might suffer from the general mainstream avoidance.

If you are in counselling or therapy sessions now, or have been in the past, you could be part of this groundbreaking enquiry by completing an anonymised online survey which will take between 5-8 minutes at most.

Thanking you in anticipation
