If you are feeling run down, lost, tired, depressed, stressed, anxious or simply just not feeling yourself, I can assist you to recover your sense of wellbeing and vitality.
I draw on many years of experience in personal development and formal professional training in natural therapies to help you recover and restore your intrinsic balance of physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
You will experience a sense of renewal, feelings of restoration and replenishment, new insights and connections to the deepest parts of yourself, and an enhanced sense of inner peace and contentment.
How I work with YOU
Counselling
When you are feeling loss or grief, overwhelmed, confused, depressed, low self-worth, betrayed, hurt, angry or just plain upset, it helps just being able to talk about your thoughts and feelings with someone who will really listen to you and hear you.
Often, life can have a way of reminding you that old patterns and habits no longer work or serve you well. There are times when the circumstances in your life seem to be just not fair, and at these times there can appear to be no easy answer at hand.
By using a client centred approach, I will fully support you in working through and overcoming any issue that may seem just too overwhelming to deal with.
I am committed to inspiring you to discover and experience a satisfying and rewarding life, fulfilling personal relationships, along with optimal health and wellbeing.
Affirmations and Visualisations
Your emotions have a profound effect on your healing. They come from your desires and attachments to how you expect your life to be fulfilled. If you are unhappy about a situation, you may experience aggression, anxiety or grief. Suppressing feelings locks them into the subconscious, which in turn directly bring about physical changes in your body.
For example, aggression that is unexpressed becomes blocked in the muscles of your body. It freezes your muscles and impedes your ability to respond and move. It settles in the back of the neck and behind the throat if you do not say the words that need to be expressed.
Unfortunately, most of us live in a society that does not allow us to express our feelings easily or comfortably.
Without releasing negative emotions and replacing them with positive ones, you will continue to live with physical symptoms that are often manifested as muscular pain, headaches, migraine and nausea often accompanied by sleeplessness, low mood, anxiety and even depression.
Be aware of and listen carefully to your own self-talk, particularly when you make a mistake. Check out whether this is critical or demeaning, without warmth or compassion for yourself. Ask yourself whether you would you treat your best friend this way? Probably not!
Affirmations are powerful, positive, yet simple statements that you practice saying to yourself regularly. They are tailored to target and support the most important issue(s) that otherwise may bring you down through negative thinking. They create positive thinking, which in turn creates positive feelings towards yourself and others.
Visualisations are created in a deep state of relaxation. In this calm and relaxed state, the subconscious mind is open to the suggestion of whatever it is you desire……
In this altered state of awareness, “the subconscious does not know the difference between that which is real and that which is imagined”.
By using the power of imagination, old outmoded belief systems can be gently released, replacing them with new, positive beliefs.
You will find renewed hope! You will learn how to release old patterns and cycles of negative thoughts, feelings and behaviour, that will lead you to experience a renewed, positive and powerful sense of SELF. You will learn how to become the major source of ongoing support and encouragement for yourself, and your life will begin to change in positive ways
Holistic Kinesiology
Holistic Kinesiology is a wonderful new health science that interestingly is based on the ancient Eastern teachings enshrined in both Traditional Chinese Medicine and the energy healing of Indian Vedic Medicine. It also includes elements of Chiropractic science.
A Holistic Kinesiology session is primarily focused on balancing chi, your essential life force energy. This vital energy constantly flows to all parts of your body, your muscles, bones, organs, the brain and nervous system. Your day to day wellbeing is dependent on the constant, even flow of chi.
Blockages to this vital flow of chi can be disrupted by many factors. For example, if you are feeling stressed, particularly for a prolonged period of time, your body and emotions experience disharmony. If you feel very depressed, angry, fearful or anxious, you may not be able to sleep and you may feel lethargic because your energy levels are low. Simply, you may not feel your usual self and just can’t get rid of that feeling.
Your session will include an overall energetic assessment. I will work with you to identify blockages and then rebalance your vital flow of chi, with the view to healing the underlying cause of blockages and disharmony, rather than the symptom(s).
Holistic Kinesiology works on many levels to restore the flow of chi, and your wellbeing:
Physically – where tension and stress is held and felt as aches and pains.
Emotionally – by exploring both your conscious and sub-conscious beliefs and attitudes that cause you torment but no longer serve you.
Energetically – through your awareness, to release negative thoughts and feelings that will open the way to look at your life from a new perspective, revealing new and positive possibilities for your future.
Holistic Kinesiology Healing Modalities
I will use the gentle practice of acupressure therapy, often in combination with flower essences, light, colour, sound or meridian therapies, and/or, bring focus to balancing your chakra energies in accordance with Vedic teachings.
Acupressure Therapy
Traditional Chinese Medicine identifies 14 major meridians that are major channels of energy where chi flows throughout your body. Along each meridian are located many individual acupressure points, which when stimulated, restore the smooth flow of chi and vital energy.
The appropriate points for you are identified and gently stimulated by touch, and/or with the use of colour, light or flower essences.
Flower Essences
Entirely safe and gentle, flower essences help you manage the emotional demands of everyday life, harmonizing negative feelings and belief patterns held in the subconscious mind. Each essence targets a specific emotion and provides ‘vibrational healing’ on a subtle level, transforming negative emotions into positive aspects and possibilities. Essences are a gentle way of accessing your intuition and activating your body’s natural ability to heal itself.
Often, more than one essence may be required, and will be selected from:- Bach Flower Remedies
- Australian Bush Flower Essences
- American Desert Flower Essences
Balancing Chakra Energies
Vedic medicine founded in ancient India identified seven major energy centres (Chakras) that effect your body. These form part of your naturally inherited energetic make up that governs form and consciousness. The chakras are the key to your physical health, emotional stability, and mental clarity. The energy of each chakra is expressed through the nerve plexuses, and specific endocrine glands that secrete hormones into the blood system, controlling a broad range of vital functions of your body.
Each chakra is intimately linked energetically to a specific colour, sound, light and sensory experience. Clearing each chakra to bring the flow of this subtle energy into balance will optimize your feelings of wellbeing and consciousness.

How many sessions will YOU need?
Generally, if you have been living with a long standing problem, then it will take some time for changes to occur, however, immediate changes are not uncommon. If a problem is fairly recent, positive changes can occur almost straight away. From clinical experience, an condition/issue can require between 2 to 6 sessions for you to benefit from positive change within yourself.
Essentially, the key focus of each session is to gain a complete understanding of the underlying cause(s) of an issue, before you can properly integrate the necessary healing strategies that will return you to good health and wellbeing.
Sessions normally average about an hour, however for long standing or deep seated issues, an hour and a half session is recommended.
