I have had the privilege of working with people from all over the world in individual therapy, workshops and in meditation & therapeutic retreats over the last 30+ years. I have been based in Australia for a lot of my adult life but have lived and worked in Chile, India, Italy, Scandinavia and the U.K. 

My journey started back in the late 80’s when I traveled to India as an, already seeking, 19 year old – knowing that there was so much more to life than I had been exposed to but not knowing where to find it. I traveled through the North of India drawn to Buddhist temples and communities including the Osho Ashram in Poona where learned meditation and participated in all kinds of workshops. I also studied and practiced Reichian Breath therapy and Craniosacral Therapy and from that time meditation and spiritual transformation became the central focus of my life.

I continued to visit the India over the next 10 years and was able to immerse myself in therapy groups, trainings and meditation practices. In the 90’s a small group of us co-created a process called The Path of Love in which I was a senior facilitator for 15 years. It was an intense and rich time of traveling as a team and facilitating this process on several continents.

Concurrently over that time, I attended personal, experiential and professional therapeutic trainings around the world – approaches that include Psychotherapy, Trauma Healing(Somatic Experiencing® and EMDR), Tibetan Buddhist practices, Mindfulness and Meditation, Addiction Counselling, Relational Gestalt, Group Therapy, Family therapy & Family Constellation and Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, The Diamond Logos Teachings and The Hoffman Process.

In 1996, I met Faisal Muqaddam who is the founder of The Diamond Logos Teaching which is a conprehensive map and methodology to retrieve connection to one’s essential self. I was asked to organise the retreats that over the next few years rapidly grew into four large groups that met annually in Italy. This ‘job’ gave me the unique opportunity to be close to Faisal as my mentor and friend while I gave sessions during the retreats to the participants and had the fortune to be present in all of the retreats in Italy over the next 10 years.  

In 2008, after all of the ‘alternative’ trainings, I returned to Australia to formally study psychotherapy to have a qualification that was more conventional. After completing a degree at the Jansen Newman Institute in Sydney I felt the need to return to my homeland and process some of my personal family story that I thought I had managed to escape from but was still not resolved. This was a time of healing and reconnecting with my roots, and while I was in the U.K I worked as an Addiction therapist at The Priory Hospital in London where I learned so much about the horror and destruction of the disease of addiction and the tools to recovery. 

Back in Australia in 2012, I trained to be a facilitator of The Hoffman Process Australia, that has its headquarters near my home, Byron Bay. I worked with the team in Australia until 2023 as a supervisor and senior facilitator and more recently joined the U.K team. I have a private psychotherapy practice in person and online.

I so appreciate having the fortune to work in the field of healing and transformation. I experience it an honour to accompany people to discover the depth and wonder of their true nature. My own self-inquiry and evolution of consciousness have been a life-long passion and I treasure the continued learning and deepening in my own understanding, meditation and awakening, while I accompany others  – it is something that will continue until my last breath.
