In the deepest within
the most infinite beyond
(ken wilber)
LOVE LIVE & LAUGH!
THE PROCESS:
To provide a co-creative, nurturing 'Holding Space' to facilitate your INNER and OUTER AWAKENING through increased AWARENESS of yourself, your process and how you interact with life.
HOLDING SPACE is a SPACE for ...
allowing, accepting, supporting, listening, witnessing, validating, presencing, loving and ... holding.
It is a non-judgmental space that offers support and security for your own personal growth.
WHY PSYCHOTHERAPY / COACHING?
Sometimes events, people or circumstances in life can overwhelm you ... or perhaps you may simply want to deepen your personal development experience through empowerment and increased Self Awareness. In these moments you may need to reach out and seek external support to reorient you back to your own resources and balance within.
THERAPY ... is a personal journey of growth and healing.
THE THERAPIST ... is one who can assist, guide and support you in this process of growth and healing.

INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOTHERAPY
& COACHING
The curious paradox
is that when I accept
myself just as I am,
then I can change.
(Carl Rogers)
COUPLE PSYCHOTHERAPY
& COACHING
But let there be spaces
in your togetherness.
And let the winds of heaven
dance between you.
Love one another,
but make not a bond of love.
Let it rather be a moving sea
between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup
but drink not from one cup.
(Kahlil Gibran)
GROUP PSYCHOTHERAPY
& COACHING
We are all connected
Individually,
we are one drop.
Together,
we are an ocean.
(Ryunosuke Satoro)
let your inner & outer light
SHINE ON
The clouds are these difficult moments in life when we disconnect from our light within, and our awareness is closed off.
SHINE ON … is about connecting to ourselves once more, by bringing the warm light of AWARENESS (consciousness) to shine on our thoughts and feelings in the moment, HOLDING SPACE for and allowing them to just be there, without any judgment.
No matter what you are going through, this light of awareness will guide you through your "cloud moments" transforming them into a creative process once more, where you can awaken to and be present to your journey again continuing to learn, grow and evolve.
SHINE ON - let your inner light shine on your inner world
Shine on has an inner component,
... that of being aware of and shining the light on, what is going on inside of you, your thoughts, feelings, sensations, heart, divinity..
Awaken to who you are.
SHINE ON - let your inner light shine on the outer world
Shine on has an outer component,
... that of being aware of and shining your light on, the world around you, your family, friends, community, nature, animals.. the world.
Awaken to who you are in the world.
Even when the sky
is heavily overcast,
the sun hasn't disappeared.
It's still there
on the other side of the clouds.

SHINE ON
a "Presence-Centred Holding Space"
The diversity of people I’ve met — and my own path through life — have shaped a unique, integrative approach to well-being. Each role, study, and life experience has led me toward a more unified, embodied, spirited, way of working.
I draw from Gestalt Therapy, Psychology, NLP, Characterology & Bioenergetics, Martinus Cosmology, Psychosynthesis, Mindfulness, and the creative arts. I’ve also been a teacher, artist, children’s book author, videographer, ukulele player, and lifelong nature and animal lover.
Also, living with chronic health challenges since my early 20s has helped me find happiness within, that happiness that comes like a sparkle in the moment. From this inner light, I’ve learned how to be with life, to feel it, to breathe it ... to LIVE it, to LAUGH it, to LOVE it.
Life can be a journey of awakening.
The more I discover who I am intentionally, the more I meet the world with authenticity — beyond fear, shame, or judgment — and into courage, compassion, and presence.
... And this is what I bring to the Holding Space with you.
... And this is what I intend for you too. My hope is that you, too, learn to meet yourself with awareness, self-love, and compassion — while honoring your place within the web of life.
Connecting with and sharing your LIGHT is your responsibility. It involves:
- an INNER AWAKENING to yourself through personal and spiritual awareness.
- an OUTER AWAKENING to others through recognizing and nurturing your interconnection and interdependence with everything on our planet.
SHINE ON!
Vanessa
SHINE ON
“Become like the sun. If you do so, all darkness will be dispelled. No matter what happens, live confidently with the conviction that you, yourself are the “sun.” Of course, in life there are sunny days and cloudy days. But even on cloudy days, the sun is still there. Even when you are suffering, it is vital that you strive to keep the sun shining brightly in your heart.”
Daisaku Ikeda
