I’ve chosen to have had a very varied life, I often think of it as many lives in one. I’ve loved my yoga practice for about 30 years now, became a yoga teacher 17 years ago, and have meditated regularly for about 25 years. This led me to a lot of internal and self-growth work and over the last few years I have embraced several healing modalities. More recently, after a relationship breakup, I found myself in a difficult place emotionally and mentally where I felt really despondent and desperate, like there was no way out, and turned to hypnotherapy to release deeply etched patterns of thought and behaviour that were no longer serving me. I have been blown away by the results!

Seeing how successful hypnotherapy was in my own life, leading me to a sense of freedom and wellbeing I can maintain with ease, I was drawn to train in Rapid Transformational Therapy directly with Marisa Peer. I’m so pleased I completed this training and became a Clinical Hypnotherapist as each day I love sharing RTT and seeing its powerful healing effects on clients, leading them to quickly shift limiting beliefs and release related emotional and physical manifestations as they’ve been wanting to for so long.

I’ve had a wonderful succession of careers, so feel I can empathise with many paths in life. After studying, I became a corporate lawyer, working in Wellington, NZ, New York, NY, and London, UK. I traveled extensively before returning to NZ and volunteered in Dharamsala, India for TCHRD. I became General Counsel at a NZ public listed company. Then I had the joy of becoming a full-time mother and embracing the local Playcentre. This led to a passion for education which I fulfilled by first becoming a teacher aide and then retraining and working as a primary school teacher.

I’ve been married and divorced, and am a proud mother of three beautiful teenage daughters.

I love to be in nature, walking, swimming, relaxing, sharing time with friends and family. I’m passionate about learning about the mind, body and soul, and connecting through meditation and other ways with the Divine.

I’m based in Wellington, New Zealand, spending half my week in Wellington City and the other half in Te Horo. I can work with people in person from either Strathmore Park, Wellington, or Strathean Retreat Centre, Te Horo. I also work with clients online.
