Michelle offers therapeutic, educational and life changing spiritual support with degrees in Psychology, Hypnosis, Somatic Body Work, Breath-Work Therapy, Bush Flower Essences, Regression Therapy, Specialist Education, Reiki, Crystal Dreaming, EFT, and Therapeutic Clearing Technology.
Michelle was born in Sydney, Australia and is a survivor of Trauma Based Mind Control and Ritualistic Abuse that extended throughout her life. Her dedication to both extensive study and deep personal healing has equipped her with an accomplished and powerful approach in her practice as a Holistic Education Tutor and Spiritual Life coach.
After completing her studies in Psychology at Curtin University in 1983, Michelle spent the next 35 years studying alternative healing modalities and spiritual practices. In 1987 Michelle had a spiritual visitation which began her journey of healing and awakening from deep spiritual trauma.
Discover your true Identity
In 1988 Michelle travelled to the Himalayan Mountains where she studied and practiced ancient philosophies in the Buddhist Monasteries of Nepal. Travelling further into India, Michelle spent further years studying alternative medicines, homeopathy, Ayurvedic medicine, and practicing Bhakti Yoga in some of the most sacred villages of India. After years of studies and dedicated service, Michelle was initiated in 1996 into the Vedic order of Gaudiya Vaisnavas by Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Narayana Maharaja.
Michelle subsequently went on to complete her deep personal healing from the extensive spiritual violence and torture she endured as she was growing up. She now shares a wealth of support and experience with her students, fellow vaisnavas and those who pursue their own educational and spiritual aspirations.
