9 Journeys

A one-to-one coaching pathway for safely reclaiming yourself from trauma and reconnecting with your unique identity.

Reclaiming Yourself

My coaching container is focused, potent, and safely held for you to explore your life's journey and the strategies you have put into practice to survive stressful times. We look both backwards at the patterns, protective responses, and beliefs that may be shaping your daily life, as well as present to your needs today and forwards towards your future journeys.

The nine-journey framework provides gentle structure without turning your experience into a checklist. You will develop greater awareness of your nervous system, clearer boundaries, practical grounding tools, and a more compassionate relationship with yourself. I accompany you on the bridge from your old pathways to your chosen adventures, helping you to reclaim the vitality that has been lost.

Ideal For

  • Trauma-informed one-to-one support

  • Understanding and transforming recurring patterns

  • Building boundaries, agency, and self-acceptance

  • Profound and effective personal growth

How It Works

  1. Book your 9 Journeys container and your first session.

  2. We focus on your current needs and goals in developing a plan for your sessions.

  3. Explore The Journeys: We move through your life's cyclical themes incorporating transpersonal journeying and inquiry to find exiled parts and lost connections, completing cycles of evolution, severing unhealthy attachments, and mending disrupted ancestral connections.

  4. Integrate What Helps: We identify practical insights and resources you can carry into everyday life for complete transformation.
