Hi, I’m Whitney 🤍
I am someone who has a huge humanitarian heart, an open mind and a free spirit. I found myself in this line of work as it feels like something that has come naturally to me after navigating my own healing journey. I have always had a curious mind, asked lots of questions and wondered what the meaning of life was all about.. what are we really here for.
I often find myself in situations where people seem to open up to me, sharing things they haven’t shared with others before, merely because they felt safe enough to. I love hearing their stories, the challenges they have faced, the journey they have been on and also witnessing their light.
There is nothing more rewarding and purposeful then walking alongside someone as they remember who they are beneath the heaviness, the pain, limiting beliefs and the trauma they have faced.. I love creating spaces where people can feel safe, seen, and free to just be themselves - messy, human, perfectly imperfect and enough as they are.
My path towards this work has been one like most who enter the therapy space… life humbled me, my lived experiences shaped me and everything I have been through led me here.
I’ve been in the deep end - where the weight of living felt unbearable, where the light inside me dimmed, and where simply opening my eyes each morning felt like a battle. I know what it’s like to live with an aching chest, a heavy body, and an inner voice so loud with negativity that it convinces you you’re broken, worthless, beyond help and accepting of perhaps I was just “born this way”
I’ve walked through grief after losing my dad when I was fourteen. Years of disordered eating, body dysmorphia, and punishing myself in the gym in a desperate attempt to feel enough. Constant running. Searching for home, belonging, and relief by changing places, careers, bodies, identities.
I spent years trying to fix myself - believing that if I could just be perfect, heal enough, become strong enough, shrink enough, be like everyone else and fit into a box, I would finally be worthy and loveable, id finally be happy.
I understand what it’s like to reach out for help and feel unseen, dismissed, treated like your just another number. To be offered medication without being met in your humanity, or asked what was it you truly needed. To sit across from professionals who don’t quite get it, like you could talk around in circles and no matter how much you tried to express yourself they never truly heard what you were saying. To feel isolated inside your pain with no hope of ever getting out.
My Journey
I come from a background in fitness -personal training for over 13 years, coaching boxing and Muay Thai, and fighting professionally. I learned discipline, resilience, strength, to harden, protect yourself and try to control everything around you… but eventually I realised that real transformation doesn’t come from pushing harder. It comes from slowing down, from listening, from softening, from opening and finally feeling what your body has been holding onto.
Everything shifted when I found breathwork and hypnotherapy. For the first time in a long time, my body could speak. Grief moved through me. I felt release, love, connection, and a deep sense of coming home. That moment opened a door I couldn’t close - and I began a journey of remembering myself, layer by layer.
I learned that I was never broken, I just got really good at surviving. I learnt that I didn’t loose my light, joy, happiness and aliveness - they just got buried underneath all the heaviness I had been carrying.
Since then, I’ve devoted myself to learning and practicing healing in all its forms. I’ve trained in Counselling, Ox*Gen breathwork therapy, Hypnotherapy, integrative health coaching, yoga teaching, youth mentoring, and colour therapy. I’m passionate about bridging mind, body, and soul- honouring both science and spirit, depth and play, human mess and human joy and the grounded reality of life here on this earth, the experience of being a human whilst also the deeper understanding of our souls purpose.
I have come to understand that to help support those I work with is to take a whole person approach, that is unique and individual to each nervous system, past lived experience, beliefs and values.
Still Human, Still Learning
A part of my approach is to also honour that I am human first and still navigating this wild ride we call life. Ill never claim to have it all figured out, to know everything, offer you results I cannot guarantee or to be perfect. I still get triggered. I still have days when I want to do nothing but watch netflix and eat gelato. Where I ebb and flow from gratitude to grief. Where all my tools go out the window and I need someone to support me. I laugh until my belly hurts. I love the ocean. I love traveling. I love meeting new people. I love taking risks. I love the humanness of life - the little joys, the messy moments, the in-between. I still face my own challenges and I still have a mentor and therapist. This is because I value to maintain that I hold the safest, most integral and authentic space.
And I bring all of that - the depth and the lightness - into my work.
How I Work
Over the past five years, I’ve had the privilege of holding space for hundreds of people through 1:1 sessions, groups, workshops, retreats, and immersions. I work gently, intuitively, and honestly - meeting people where they are, not where they think they should be. I walk alongside you not above you.
My approach is integrative, intuitive, rooted in lived and professional experience. Some sessions are deep and still. Others are wild and cathartic. Sometimes we laugh. Sometimes we cry. Every time, we meet whatever is true and real for you. Whether you’re moving through emotional pain, identity shifts, body disconnection, grief, burnout, or simply a quiet longing for something more this work invites you home to yourself .It allows you to be in the drivers seat, for you to call back your power and start to create the changes that are aligned with the life you desire and in honouring that it requires your commitment, your honesty and your dedication to taking what we have moved through in our sessions together and continuing to implement it into your daily life- because that’s where the real work happens.
If You’re Here
If you’re reading this and feeling stuck, lost, or disconnected, I want you to know this: you’re not broken. You’re allowed to choose yourself. You’re allowed to feel, to laugh, to cry, to stumble, and to rise again. You’re allowed to live a life that feels meaningful, joyful, messy, and real.
This work is deep, embodied, human - but it’s also warm, playful, and full of life. You don’t need to be perfect, or “healed,” or have it all together to start. You just need to show up and commit to yourself. That’s where the magic happens.
and even after all of that just maybe something in you knows…
That your here for something more and its finally time you take those steps.
I am here for you and I look forward to seeing how I can support you on your own healing journey.
