About Natalie

Counsellor, spiritual coach, workshop facilitator and author of Being Human, The Path to Self-Acceptance, Resilience and Happiness.

I spent over a decade in the corporate world working in sales, marketing and HR, and during this time gained experience in organisational psychology, change management, leadership, coaching and executive coaching, training and facilitation. I had a very successful corporate career but after facing health issues, I chose to retrain as a counsellor in order to help individuals find happiness and success.

I embarked on a breadth and depth of reading, workshops and trainings that helped me build a much more conscious relationship with myself and a more healthy, happy and meaningful life. I developed a relationship with my thoughts, emotions and my physical health as well as explored and awakened my connection to my spiritual side.

This was hugely life changing (you can read a little of this story in my book) and led me to deep inner work on myself, a whole new career as a counsellor and towards many different spiritual trainings which have transformed my life.

My experience includes working with adults of all ages and young adults through private practice, as a University Student Counsellor as well as previous managerial, training and coaching roles at all levels from graduate to executive level.

I have an additional 25 years’ experience of training and facilitation of a wide variety of topics including psychological, corporate and spiritual programs.

When we make the choice to fill our heart space with unconditional love, our worlds blossom into a beauty far greater than we have known.

My Practice

I believe wholeheartedly in working on myself first and practice what I preach – I meditate and practice self-reflection daily so that I am able to continue working on myself. This I believe enables me to accompany and support my clients at depth on both the highs and lows of their journey.

Whilst, I have found an approach that works for me, I believe in the importance of helping others to find their own unique pathway in accordance with their own beliefs and values.
