My life's work is to guide others back to themselves, reconnecting with the wisdom and wholeness that has always resided within.
My Journey
My path began over four decades ago with a profound curiosity about human consciousness and our capacity for transformation. What started as a personal quest for understanding became a lifelong commitment to supporting others on their journeys toward wholeness.
Through extensive training in both Eastern and Western modalities, I've developed a unique approach that bridges the ancient wisdom traditions with modern neuroscience. This synthesis allows me to address both the practical aspects of mental health as well as the deeper dimensions of human experience.
As a licensed Mental Health First Aid instructor with MHFA Australia, I bring evidence-based frameworks to communities and workplaces, empowering individuals to recognize and respond effectively to mental health challenges. Concurrently, my decades of experience with Rebirthing Breathwork, meditation, and holistic healing modalities inform my private practice, where I guide clients through The Conscious Liberation Method.
I've had the privilege of working with individuals from all walks of life—from corporate leaders and healthcare professionals to artists, educators, and spiritual seekers. Each relationship has deepened my understanding of our shared human journey and the universal longing for authentic connection and meaning.
My Approach & Philosophy
I believe that each person contains within them the wisdom and capacity for healing and growth. My role is not to "fix" or direct, but rather to create a safe container and provide practical tools for your own unfolding. Through compassionate presence and skilled guidance, I help you recognize and release the invisible programming that limits your experience of life.
Whether I'm teaching mental health first aid principles to a workplace team or guiding an individual through transformative breathwork, my approach remains grounded in several core principles:
Honoring both evidence-based practices and timeless wisdom traditions to address the full spectrum of human experience.
Cultivating the capacity to be fully present with whatever arises, as the doorway to deeper understanding and transformation.
Supporting the integration of mind, body, heart, and spirit for authentic living and expanded consciousness.
