WildHeart Psychotherapy

BOOK A SESSIOn

In the middle of the road of my life, I awoke in a dark wood, where the true way was wholly lost.

- David Whyte

I am a Melbourne based Psychotherapist, Holotropic Breathwork practitioner and Men's Group facilitator.

I work from a therapy clinic on Sydney Rd in Brunswick and cater to people looking for support across a wide range of areas including anxiety, depression, spiritual emergence / emergency and more. 

I work from a Gestalt-informed, Process Oriented, and Transpersonal perspective, with roots in Traditional Chinese Medicine. My approach is awareness-based, using the breath and body as central tools to support healing and personal growth.

I've been involved in the fields of healing and personal development since the late 1990s. My journey began in 1994, exploring how environmental factors influence our health. This led to a period of teaching Western Geomancy at the Australian College of Environmental Studies, where I offered "Power of Place" field trips and lectures. These focused on our relationship with place and country, using experiential methods to deepen connection with the spaces we live in.

A steady appreciation for nature has been an important part of my work over the past 20 years, and continues to inform a grounded and respectful approach to psychotherapy.

Holotropic Breathwork

In the late 1990's I had my first experience of Holotropic breathwork, with one of Australia's pioneering Holotropic Breathwork practitioners, the Reverend Alf Foote. Alf Foote was a part of the key month-long workshops at the Esalen community during the 1980's when Stan Grof started to form the set and setting for Holotropic Breathwork.

In 2006 I began the Grof Transpersonal Facilitator Training under Tav Sparks and in 2013 certified as a Holotropic Breathwork Facilitor. Since then I have been running regular Holotropic Breathwork workshops in Melbourne.

Men's Groups

I am also keenly interested in working in groups and working with Men to help facilitate greater personal and relational intimacy. I am personally a member of a group that has been meeting monthly for almost 15 years and have also facilitated groups since 2013.
