Aboriginal Focusing Orientated Therapy
Aboriginal Focusing therapy is a land-based and body-centered approach to healing. Bringing Aboriginal psychotherapy and ancestral knowledge into the room, we discover that the answers lie within us. We come to learn that sometimes the pain we carry is intergenerational and not always ours. We honour our lineage and trust our bodies to help tell stories that have long been trapped or hidden.
It is a focused therapy approach. One ailment or issue at a time. Deepening our connection with the land, we unpack layers of self and familial pain. Clients who have participated in this therapy gain answers to deep-rooted pain and open the door to healing for self and ancestral lineages. Your body knows. You begin to understand how to listen to it. Quiet the mind and learn the tools to tap into embodied awareness.
Nature Immersion Therapy
$40 per session
Do you want to enhance your connection with nature to create more meaning and purpose in your life? Need some distance from difficult emotions? Nature Therapy may help!
Nature Immersion is an experiential life coaching session facilitated in the woods. I will help guide you to become mindful of your environment, connecting you to various parts of nature, and engaging all your senses. Allowing your senses and feelings of nature fill your entire being creates the distance needed from your emotions to let them go. There are so many ways nature teaches us to bring harmony and balance in our lives, one of them being mindfulness.
Become mindful of the present moment and tuning into our mind, body, and spirit, allows our connections to the land blossom. Mindfulness is our natural way to connect with the land and animals. We are in constant connection and relationship with water, air, fire, earth, plant & animal life. We take the time needed to nourish our relationship with Gaia and she responds in soulful ways.
During, and at the end of each session, you will receive specific nature-based exercises working towards your wellness goals helping you to gain the skills that will follow you a lifetime. Create a deeper connection with self, nature and others. Take the time, nurture your, and build meaningful connections that support your voyage through life. Let us walk in harmony with the rhythm of Gaia, our Mother Earth.
Drug and Alcohol Counselling
Utilizing CBT, mindfulness, and other approaches, I help guide clients to a live a purposeful and sober lifestyle. Having familial and personal experience with addictions, I use evidence-based practising whilst facilitating various healing techniques. This helps clients become mindful and aware of conscious choices, habitual thinking patterns, and emotional regulating behaviours.
These sessions are not your typical psychotherapy counselling as we create a trusting and meaningful therapeutic alliance through various healing modalities connecting your mind, body and soul. We learn to hold ourselves up, dissolving feelings of shame, anger, and self-hatred. Take the steps to slowly release hopelessness. Transform those feelings into personal empowerment and believe that you are worthy to live a life of sobriety.
Together we create and implement a wellness plan designed specifically for you. By creating a sanctuary for personal expression and exploration, you will be guided to discover your strengths and talents that have been hidden. Empowering you to overcome life challenges in positive ways, becoming mindful, and living life genuinely. The steps you take are a journey towards self-discovery; a journey to new beginnings that supports self-forgiveness, self-compassion, and sustains personal empowerment. It is a healing journey like no other.
Counselling & Crystal Therapy
For a more powerful and intimate healing experience, we begin with 30-45 min counselling session and end with a 30 minute Individualized Crystal Healing treatment. I book these for 2 hours to allow sufficient time to compete the healing process.
Goals & Visions
Breathe. Heal. Grow.
We hold the capacity within ourselves to heal our wounds and change our internal thoughts and beliefs. This isn’t about a magical change that happens overnight. It is about real change, like that of all newly planted trees, it slowly takes times to root and grow. We remain who we are, but we become more comfortable within ourselves. We learn to be more present and grounded to make mindful choices. We take time to breathe, to heal old wounds that continue to limit us into the present day, and to grow a strong foundation that supports our healing journey. I hold space to allow you to connect to your inner wisdom, and together, we heal.

Cold Full Moon Ceremony
A Gemini influenced full moon – the twin sign, 2 sides of personality, the yin and yang, the emotional and the intellect. This full moon can go either way, stirring up emotions, or mind chatter. So let’s concentrate on keeping ourselves grounded and coming from a place of love.
The last full moon of the year, although considered the cold moon, it holds a beautiful essence of warmth and love. Time to shed those limited beliefs we have of our selves. Together, we will release and come to a place of self-compassion working with our Root and Heart Chakra’s while we create a space for personal love and understanding.
Spirit Walk
Would you like to deepen your connection with Mother Earth? If so, please join me for a day of Spirit, ceremony, and loving intentions. Together, we will connect to our Higher Power, spirit animals and that of our ancestors through an Intuitive Earth Walk, fire ceremony and guided meditation.
Becoming body aware - tuning into our mind, body, and spirit - allows our connections to the land blossom. Body + mind awareness is our natural way to spiritually connect with our ancestors, and that of the land and animals. We are in constant connection and relationship with water, air, fire, earth, plant & animal life. Let us honour our sacred connectedness with love and light.
Let us honour and acknowledge our interrelatedness by becoming fully present in the moment, expressing our gratitude, love and intentions. Let's walk in harmony with the rhythm of Gia, our Mother Earth.
