About Me

I had anxiety and depression for 25 years.

Like many of us, I come from a dysfunctional family. I grew up dealing with bullying at home and school. Due to low self-esteem, I rebelled and became trapped in addiction.

I tried everything to heal my life, including counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I saw a psychologist and read every self-help book under the sun. Over the years, I spent thousands of dollars trying to fix myself.

What I wanted was to wake up and feel confident. I didn’t want to feel that I wasn’t attractive enough, smart enough, or funny enough. I didn’t want to doubt myself in my relationships and fear that men would leave me for someone else.

Frustrated with going to therapy for months and not getting anywhere. I was afraid I would always feel this way. I became a yoga teacher, a meditator and a life coach with a foundation in somatic psychotherapy.

Fascinated by the mind and how it influences our experience, I came to understand that depression is not just a chemical imbalance; it comes from harsh self-criticism and from not living from your heart. It also has its foundation in the belief that ‘I am not enough.’

Through yoga, meditation, somatic psychotherapy and mindfulness practices, I rewired my subconscious mind to change the way I think and feel about myself. Connecting with a deep feeling of peace and love on my spiritual journey also profoundly changed my life. The depression lifted and my self-esteem improved. This journey inspired me to help others.

In 2003, an organisation in Melbourne offered me a job as a therapist to work with long-term unemployed clients who couldn't work because of anxiety and depression. I worked with a full caseload of clients for over five years.

In 2016, I trained as an RTT Therapist with one of the world’s leading hypnotherapists, Marisa Peer. RTT Therapy incorporates the most effective components of hypnotherapy, neural linguistic programming, cognitive behaviour programming, and psychotherapy. It is the most powerful tool I have worked with.

In my early years, I tried hypnotherapy, and it didn’t work. Fluffing around with guided visualisations was not my thing. I was sceptical, however, RTT delivers results.

Since I trained as an RTT Therapist, RTT Therapy is the main hypnotherapy method I use in my work. I have treated over 3000 clients with RTT. Just today, a client shared that after our first session; she’s feeling better. Despite years of therapy, she still experienced anxiety and depression before meeting me.

One of my passions is helping clients connect with themselves on a deep spiritual level. I have run workshops and retreats in countries, including Australia and Mexico (where I lived for 3 years), empowering men and women to love and accept themselves through working with archetypes and ancient women’s wisdom.

Anxiety and depression don’t have to be a life sentence, and it is possible to have great self-esteem. Having emotional blocks that cause addiction, money worries, or relationship issues can be healed. These do not have to be a life sentence and you do not need to be in therapy for months or years.

I would love everyone to experience my work because it transforms people’s lives. Low self-esteem is boring. You were born knowing that you are loveable, that you are unique, that you are enough. It is time to remember this again.
