Hello and a warm welcome to Liberated Soul Holistics!

My personal healing journey and spiritual awakening was kick-started abruptly in 2005 with the unexpected loss of both of my parents when I was just eighteen. After both suffering complications from chronic diseases that were in part undetected and mismanaged, they passed away within a year of each other. Ten months after losing my Dad who was just 60 at the time, I lost my Mum who was only 51, leaving me an orphan.

My parents both passed away when I wasn’t by their side. Having expected to see them again and with hope for their recovery, I was completely blindsided when I received the news that they had each died. The sudden shock in each case was compounded by the intense sorrow and guilt I felt that I didn’t get to say “Goodbye,” or even “Thank you” to either of them before they departed the physical world.

The unanticipated and traumatic experiences of seeing my parents go through such suffering and then finding myself orphaned suddenly as a teenager were the catalysts that initiated my own long and winding healing journey. For years I experienced PTSD, which manifested as debilitating IBS, out-of-the-blue anxiety attacks, general depression and the adoption of a whole host of misaligned coping mechanisms!

As an only child, my empty family home became a haunting place and the worst of my panic attacks would come on at night when the noise of the outside world dimmed and I was alone. Terrified to be present with my thoughts and overwhelming feelings, I tried everything from prescription anti-depressants to over-indulging in alcohol and wandering the local shopping centre until closing time to distract my mind, fill the void and avoid the anxiety that I felt whenever I was alone. However, all of these attempts at mental distraction and emotional numbing only led me further into a state of imbalance, disconnection and confusion.

I immediately stopped taking the antidepressants that numbed my emotions (the good, as well as the bad). I just couldn't tolerate moving through the motions of my life in a dissociative and chemically-induced haze. As my clarity returned, the initial shock began to give way to intense feelings of anger and I knew it had the potential to destroy me, if I didn’t have a constructive way to process it.

When I was alone, I found journalling my thoughts to be a steady source of comfort. The prevailing question I kept asking of the Universe was, "Why?! - Why us? Why now??" The answer remained elusive, but as time progressed, I was guided to do the only thing that promised light at the end of the tunnel: to seek greater knowledge.

Instead of hiding from the reality of life without my parents, I was determined to receive answers as to why they suffered as they did and at such relatively young ages. Years on, I was still plagued by memories of seeing them lying gaunt and weak in hospital beds and me feeling so helpless and frustrated - even the experts seemed clueless.

I wanted to find meaning amid the powerlessness by learning more about the underlying causes of illness, what it really means to be ‘healthy’ and to discover how (or even if) I could reconnect with my own inner peace and well-being after having it so suddenly ripped away from me.

In search of wisdom and empowerment I spent many years voraciously studying the holistic healing arts, beginning with herbalism and naturopathic principles of healing and detoxification. Introducing herbalism and detoxification practices into my daily routine brought much-needed balance and increased clarity into my body and mind. That alone brought me hope. From this place of increased vital force energy and balance, I was then inspired to delve into the more esoteric realms of energy healing and psychic development.

I had always been energetically sensitive and intuitive, with a thirst for exploring the metaphysical mysteries of life, so when in 2013 I stumbled across Soul Realignment, I instantly knew it was something I wanted to pursue - and I'm so glad I did - it absolutely changed my life! Puzzle pieces came rushing in, filling in the blank spaces of my consciousness and providing the insight and meaning I had always searched for. Yet, at the same time, as I discovered this deeper self knowledge and esoteric wisdom I realised that part of me had never forgotten.

In 2014, a good Reiki Master friend of mine was interested in experiencing a Soul Realignment session with me and suggested in exchange she would do my Level 1 Reiki attunement. This serendipitous offering marked the start of my Reiki journey, which opened a new door within my awareness, initiated me into a powerful new path of self-healing and ultimately led to me becoming a Usui Reiki Master Teacher several years later.

Discovering the healing modalities of Reiki and Soul Realignment unlocked answers and higher wisdom that I felt I had been waiting for my whole life. I found that by restoring balance to my energy and inner peace with Reiki and reconnecting with the wisdom of my Soul-level gifts with Soul Realignment, I was able to create empowering shifts in my life.

The more I began to work with others as a therapist, I came to see that the painful experiences I went through in my teen years held a precious gift; not only the opportunity to find my own holistic healing path that reconnected me with my intrinsic well-being, spiritual empowerment and soul purpose as the Conscious Creator of a Soul-aligned life, but the gift of being able to be in service to others and help them to do the same.

I’m so very thankful that what began as a personal tragedy blossomed into a huge opportunity to expand into a life of embodied soul purpose. The more I asked for guidance and the more I followed my intuition, the more clearly the path unfolded before me. I've connected with clients all around the world who have been searching for answers to the very same questions that first stirred within me as a bereaved teenager.

I came to understand that as well as holding physical toxicity, harbouring negative thought patterns and emotions (such as anger, worry and fear), living out of alignment with our unique truth and suppressing our Soul’s innate desire for expansion, fulfilment and joy are all in themselves very real causes of illness.

My experiences across over a decade of working in the healing arts have led me to understand that the key to the prevention of disease lies within the inherent connection between our spiritual, mental, emotional and physical well-being. A prolonged imbalance in any of these areas can significantly impact the others.

In 2026, I became certified as a trauma-informed Grief Coach. I feel this course of study brought me full-circle and served to further me on the initiatory path of my own deep healing journey, as well as equipping me with the knowledge to support others though grief from a place of trauma-informed practice, as well as deep empathy and understanding from my own lived experience.

My therapy work is based on a combination of holistic and metaphysical principles of health and wellness and is focused on healing at the multidimensional level of being; incorporating body, mind and spirit as one.

I’m a firm believer that we are all capable of consciously creating lives of radiant health, empowerment, joy and freedom - and it all begins with Intention!

When I meet a new client I always take the time to understand where they are on their current path in life and what their highest needs and intentions are when it comes to healing and moving forward, so I can offer the highest level of service to each Soul on their unique healing journey.

If you’re ready to realign with your highest expression of wellness, reconnect with your inner radiance and peace, or get to know yourself on a deep, Soul-level and move past the long-held karmic blocks that are holding you back from consciously creating your most Soul-aligned life, I invite you to book a free consultation to find out more about my therapies, Akashic record readings and coaching programs.
