My Story

|
I am an Alternative Health practitioner based in Johannesburg, South Africa. I have over 15 years experience in a wide variety of modalities including Reflexology, Holistic Massage Therapy, Aromatherapy, Cranio-Sacral Therapy, Hypnotherapy and EFT among others. I have a Masters Degree from The University of Johannesburg, in the field of Alternative Health research.
After 8 years in private practice, I stopped practicing the healing science and arts, due to being unable to physically manage myself and what was required of me on a physical level. I had been diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease, Fibromyalgia, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and Chronic Fatigue. I spent approximately two years in bed, feeling desperate and depressed. I felt my life was over. I was later diagnosed with latent onset Type 1 Diabetes. This was the last straw, and the illusions of my life shattered. It was the most humbling and empowering experience of my life. I knew then that I had so much to offer the world. I was managing and THRIVING with so many conditions, it had to have a greater purpose! Shortly after my diagnosis, the most special person in my life told me about Marc David's amazing work, and that this may be the opportunity I was looking for...
I trained at the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, the world’s leading school in Nutritional Psychology where I received my certification as an Eating Psychology Coach. In IPE's internationally acclaimed program, I learned powerful cutting-edge tools and protocols that enable me to work with weight issues, body image challenges, overeating, binge eating, and a variety of nutrition related health concerns such as digestion, fatigue, mood, immunity, and others. My work combines the powerful new fields of Dynamic Eating Psychology and Mind-Body Nutrition. The skills I use from this training are a combination of practical coaching techniques, results-oriented psychology, clinical nutrition, body-centered practices, mind-body science, and a positive and compassionate approach to challenges with food and health.
I am passionate about helping people fulfill their potential and working through the blocks that are holding them back in life! Should my approach and story appeal to you, I look forward to our Journey through this process together.
