About Wanda

LOVES MUSICDANCETHE MOONTHE MYSTERYSPIRITLOVETHE STRUGGLETHE FOLKHERSELF…REGARDLESS

I am a healer.
I am a guide.
I am a trauma navigator.
And I am in awe of the surrender process.
I can be with ALL of you – and also all of me – unconditionally

This work is transformative

Psychotherapy is a precious art of deep listening, to the space in between the words, the great pause between breaths.

But this work transforms on a much deeper level than that…
…its spirit led and body oriented.

Bodies talk. We cant talk without embodiment.
This is deep, soul work…and it can be messy.
We live in a world of cultural cracks systemic injustices and internalized oppression.

Trauma is historical and intergenerational.

“When we can really be with what’s hurting, we know we’re together in this. I’m a part of the collective healing journey with my clients.”

This work is sacred

Sacred because it is in a truly safe and loving, soul-to-soul relationship that healing and nervous system repatterning can happen.

Sacred because its a privilege to be let into someone’s inner world, to watch them unearth the hidden treasures inside themselves.

Sacred because this isn’t just about healing individually – this is a collective healing journey.

"When we heal ourselves, we heal the world." – Mark Nepo

Our wounds beautify our work

Psychotherapist, Executive Coach & Guide.

I didn’t arrive at this place all at once.

It was a trajectory based on a decision to surrender….and choose joy.

My life has been a series of transformations.

I’m still evolving.

I know the pain of a life spent longing to be known, yet doing everything possible to remain unknown.

To wonder how someone could possibly know my deepest shame and darkest secrets and STILL love me?

This is the gift that was given to me so many years ago when I first began to process my story.

A dear and gentle woman sat with me. And sat and sat and sat, while I slowly and painfully unravelled myself.

One day, when I could finally bring myself to look up, what I saw in her eyes changed me. I saw an unflinching willingness to hold my pain no matter what…to sit with me for as long as it takes.

That’s how I experienced the life-giving gift of being truly known and truly loved, and it’s what I hope to give to those that work with me.

The journey to heal guided me to ashrams, silent retreats, 12 step meetings, healing circles and the study of a wide range of trauma-related disciplines including; attachment theory, somatic experiencing, neuroscience, ancestral healing, mindfulness, embodied parts therapy and transformational breathwork.

The more inner work I do the better I am at holding space for my clients to do their own inner work.

Working with hundreds of clients for more than three decades in mental health, addiction counselling and psychotherapy.

Clients that come to me have been living inside a dysregulated nervous system for a very long time. Caused by disruptions to our sense of safety, uncertainty, internalized oppression, systemic injustices, grief, loss, confusion, toxic shame and collective trauma.

But its more than that…these symptoms are a ‘calling’…a deep yearning from our soul…to be heard…acknowledged and seen.

I consider it my role in this moment to make the invisible… visible.

If you

If you feel a sense of dread, tightness in your chest or an ache in your throat
If you are driven by an inner critic that demands perfection all the time
If you identify with negative self-statements as truth
If you procrastinate (even with things you like) starting not finishing, missing deadlines, giving up
If you have lists of goals, you set and often give up on
If you deal with moments of anxiety that can cripple you around the smallest of to-do’s
If you feel restless and irritable when you try to be still
If you are using substances to self soothe and sometimes a bit too much

I can help you learn

To recognize your inner critic when it shows up in disguise
To respond to a call of distress rather than being swallowed up by it
To relate to parts within you that don’t want to take action
To stay with and explore the somatic experience of shame, guilt or blame
To find the feelings in your body that you struggle to identify
To move into relationship with your dreams and goals

Are you feeling the pull to change?

No more playing small
No more over thinking your next move and tying yourself up in mental knots
I know change can be scarey
But you don’t need to do this alone
Let me walk with you

Only love can take us home

”I was struggling with relationship challenges, long-term personal struggles with my family, and a persistent sense of imposter syndrome. I felt stuck in patterns I couldn’t break on my own.
Working with Wanda has helped me navigate situations with greater clarity and confidence. I feel more self-aware and grounded, my emotions are much more regulated, and I’ve developed deeper, more meaningful connections with my husband, friends, and family.
What sets Wanda apart is her hands-on, involved approach, she truly cares for her clients. This has been transformational. I feel equipped to face life’s challenges with resilience and a new perspective. I have moved from reacting impulsively to pausing, reflecting, and responding intentionally - an invaluable shift that has improved every area of my life.

”I was trying to do it all, couldn't find balance, was stressed and spiralling. I knew there was a lot of self work to be done. I had tried many things but I couldn't figure this out on my own. Working with Wanda helped me unravel so much about myself. I have gained new perspectives on how my childhood and previous experiences have shaped me. I've experienced a major shift in my attitude and approach to stressful situations and relationships at work, with family, friends, and partner.
Wanda has this uncanny ability to lovingly mirror a situation back to you from a slightly different lens that makes it click in your brain. I previously struggled to find a therapist I could connect with. I feel very lucky to have been introduced to Wanda via a friend (who also happens to be a client!). Trust that you will be fully heard, seen, and supported as you work together. I never would've thought I would open up the way I did and it's a testament to Wanda's ability to make me feel 1000% safe, cherished and seen. She will walk with you on this journey.

”You couldn’t ask for a more effective combo of someone who has dug deep in her own messiness to do the work. Gifted with intuition and insight with a clarity of vision to look deep into your soul. She provided a lantern to help me find my way out of the dark.

”This work has been life changing. I've grown loads as a person. Wanda listens deeply and supports you to tackle things head on and without fear of judgement. Wanda has been compassionate in tailoring the sessions to my needs and meeting me where I'm at. It has also been great to have someone who is from a similar cultural background as me as she understands the nuance of being mixed-heritage. I have genuinely looked forward to our sessions, I will miss them but I'm so thankful for our time together. The techniques I've learnt will stay with me as a regular practice as I navigate life. I'd highly recommend working with Wanda and I'm deeply grateful to her for her help.

”Wanda saved my life. She made me feel safe enough to revisit my past, challenged my thought patterns, explored my deepest vulnerabilities and core beliefs. Knowing these things has given context to my stressed states and anxieties and rewrite my association with them. We laugh, I feel unconditionally supported and I feel an immediate improvement after our sessions.
ConsultantLondon, UK.

”I was very impressed with Wanda throughout the Psychotherapy program. Wanda has an excellent emotional quotient; she is able to read when to push further on issues and concerns, encourages relatability, she really listens to what is being said and responds to the root of the concern. Wanda’s curiosity and commitment to your ability to heal becomes a virtuous circle of care and transformation.

”I want to express my deep gratitude to you for helping me pull myself back from the shell of a person I was. You walked with me until I could stand in a twinkle of hope and light, you believed in me until I could believe in myself.
