These tough and at times terrifying experiences inspired me to study deeply. Studying a Master’s in Holistic Psychotherapy at the Metavision Institute, focusing on Process-Oriented Psychology (Arnold Mindell) and other holistic approaches to healing. My research explores how the mind is porous and how even encounters with darkness may hold paradoxical potential for healing when met consciously.

​

Alongside this, I’ve studied with teachers who shaped me profoundly: David Bedrick, whose trauma work emphasises unshaming presence; Paul Levy, whose teachings on Wetiko and consciousness illuminated how shadow can press us toward awakening; Robert Falconer, whose IFS and “others” work revealed the multiplicity of the psyche; and the depth psychology of Jung, whose insights into shadow and archetype gave me language for my own experiences.

​

But more than study, it was my own lived journey through pain and darkness that shaped me most. There were times I felt pushed under, unable to breathe, until slowly I began to glimpse my own light. These experiences became the ground of my work, teaching me that what nearly breaks us can also open us to a deeper strength and presence.

​

I have also been guided by spiritual practice throughout my life. Years of meditation, including Vipassana, Buddhist and Vedic philosophy, have grounded me in presence, compassion and a sense of connection with the sacred qualities that move through everyday life.

This thread of spiritual practice helps me live with humility, kindness and awareness.  For over five years I have studied with the Shakti Durga Mystery School, completing foundational training in Ignite Your Spirit Therapy and continuing studies with The Consciousness Connection. These teachings have supported my commitment to living with integrity rather than ego. I have also trained in The Journey (Brandon Bays), a gentle process for releasing old emotional patterns and reconnecting with inner truth.

​

These strands weave together in my practice. I offer a space where struggles are not reduced to symptoms but understood as part of a wider story. I listen with you, to body, field, and dreaming, for what wants to be revealed. My approach is trauma-informed, spiritually grounded, and relational. It is not about fixing or forcing, but about creating conditions where the hidden can come into light.

​

I don’t stand apart as someone who has arrived but continue to walk this path of discovery myself. What I offer is companionship in the unknown, curiosity rather than judgement, and presence with both shadow and light. My work is deeply intuitive, attuned to the subtle signals of the body, the dreaming field, and the unseen currents that shape our lives. It is an honour to walk alongside you as you uncover what is waiting to emerge.
