Heart-led experiences powered by academic evidence.

Heart-led experiences, powered by academic evidence.

You have a passion for seeing others have their well-being restored in transformational ways. You believe that you are a vessel for healing, and that you have a gift that you’d like to share. You deeply believe in and are fascinated by the mind-body link in human beings, and how trauma can disrupt this. You have a heart for the broken-hearted. Perhaps you too are on a healing journey, and would like to learn more. 

You’re at the right place.

After many years of investment in my own training and experience, I am now pouring back into the growth of other healers – that’s you 

 

Trauma survivors reached on our group therapy programs.

Counselors and facilitators trained and graduated in our certification programs.

We can’t teach what we don’t know.

One of my therapy trainers said this to me, it stuck with me and continues to influence my teaching. My personal history of trauma and subsequent, debilitating chronic illness forever marked me. It was at the bottom of these pits that I found the fuel I needed to search. And search hard.

I needed answers. Not the kind I was reading in magazines and blogs. The answers that came from deep personal transformation and the wisdom of highly experienced mind-body practitioners. 

Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would use this to not only support the healing of those on similar paths to me, but to train other healers!

Whether you are a yoga practitioner, counsellor, yoga teacher or simply curious – there is something special for you to explore with me.
