About me

I'm an experienced bodyworker and healer with 20 years in the field of the healing arts.

I entered this field initially as a registered nurse and spent 9 years working in mental health nursing; acute inpatient wards, forensic, drug and alcohol detox and therapeutic communities in NZ and Australia. 

In 2013 I made the transition into offering massage, myofascial release and holistic, intuitive energy healing in my private practice.

I have dedicated myself to this work for the past 10 years, it has been a real honour to be able to serve people in this way. I have a real passion for seeing people thrive and walk their way through the dark night of the soul. I approach healing from a very humble and grounded perspective, honouring my clients' wisdom and internal compass. 

I view life as mythology and believe we are always being called to the challenge to step up as the hero/heroine in our own story. From this perspective life is a tapestry rich with the weaving of triumph and failure, despair and hope, the full spectrum of the human experience. I see my role as one of calling you to higher wisdom and self belief and digging into the hidden meaning in lifes challenges.

 

 

 

 

 

 

As I have developed my sensitivity and attunement over these years of dedicated practice I have come to reside in this ever evolving place between the two worlds; the world of form- our every day existence and the world of spirit where the divine and the miraculous is as real and palpable.
