From reading the Face & Body, Giovanna is able to identify where there is disharmony within one's system. When there are events in our life, that are too difficult to process at the time, this energy often gets stored in our bodies. Overtime repressed feelings manifests as physical or mental health issue. Giovanna creates a safe and supportive environment to work with these unconscious energies. The impact of this work often leads to looking younger, feeling more connected to the self, having a lot more energy and vitality, a deep feeling of harmony within the Soul. Giovanna's approach also extends to working on the Family Soul. When there has been unresolved trauma and issues in generations before us. Often these symptoms get passed down the line, from generation to generation, until the issue has been acknowledged, which opens the opportunity for deep transformation for the individual, and generations following. This work is recommended for those who are committed to working on themselves. Especially for those who have worked with Psychologist and would like to go deeper to shift things on a cellular level. I am always happy to offer a complimentary phone call for those who are interested in connecting to learn more, of my offerings.

I work with many clients who have had their boundaries crossed time and time again.

When there is no capacity or safety to say "no," the body compensates by embodying the "no."

This often manifests as hardened tissue—a literal wall of safety built to maintain distance between you and the world.

​Eventually, these walls that once kept you safe will begin to act as a prison. Keeping you locked in and everyone else locked out, leading to even more suffering and isolation.

​One of the first things I do to support my clients in establishing a new found safety and trust within themselves is to invite my clients to say "no".

Ofcourse it isn't really about me, it’s about the practice of reclamation.

​Often, the only way to begin dissolving those walls is to finally give a voice to that "f'-k you", often leading to a deep softening, as the younger version of you begins to realise, that things are different now.

It is safe to say no and to learn how to articulate boundaries.

Your "no" is finally being respected and honored.

This is where deep trust and safety in the body truly begin.

​I am definitely not conventional in my approach.

But my methods are often embraced with deep relief—the relief of being unapologetically honest with oneself.

That, in itself, is profoundly liberating.

I have been quiet on socials for a while.

There's been a lot going on behind the scenes, and I can’t even articulate the gravity of what I have been through.

​Finally, I find myself in my own home—my own sanctuary. For the first time, I'm starting to remember how it feels to fully feel safe again.

​Having gifts is an extraordinary blessing. My work is what it is because of those gifts, but when you're in a dark place and your energy is not at full capacity, it makes someone like myself very vulnerable. I have never felt scared of the unseen before, but during this time I was forced to undergo an excruciating initiation.

One I barely survived.

​This chapter has now closed—thank f'^*k!

​I am not the person I was.

Death and deep loss don’t just change you; it changes everything.

I have aged.

My hair is looking more salt than pepper these days.

But I’m starting to embrace this new me.

​This maturing has also transferred into my practice.

I can confidently say that I am an expert in the field of somatics.

I am an expert at reading tissue and being able to shift chronic holding patterns and trauma held in the body through a framework I have created which infuses the unseen with the body’s innate intelligence.

​My focus now is to write a book to bring more awareness to those who are not feeling adequately met by what's currently out there and to begin training other practitioners.

​I am excited, but still very much needing to go slow and continue my recovery.

​I just felt called to come out of hiding to say hey,

I'm still here.

What a time! It's my last week in Thailand, and it's been nothing like what I anticipated.

​After running on fight--flight for the last few years, being pushed beyond what I ever thought I was capable of, the stress of witnessing my beautiful mumma get sick and pass away, absolutely demolished me. I knew that I needed a whole month to reset my system and to heal.

I got horrendously sick the moment I arrived. I was in the jungle, far away from everything, and I was forced to stop. It was excruciating. I was so angry! After all I'd been through, I desperately needed a break.

​I know now that this was all necessary and part of the plan. I didn't know how to stop or how to not be on edge; I had lost my sense of normalcy and calm.

​I've spent most of my holiday in bed, and only now am I starting to regain my health. I've realized that I needed to completely fall apart so I could fully reset myself, my health, and my new normal.

Everything feels different now. My nervous system is healing, and I am no longer on edge. I am healing ❤️.

I got exactly what I needed!

I can now indulge and enjoy a daily massage, amazing food, and all the beautiful things that Thailand has to offer.

Work-wise, I'm almost completely booked for September. I have a few spots left toward the end of the month for anyone who's feeling drawn. Please note that prices will increase starting September 1st.

I have worked with many clients who were initially skeptical.

That is 100% understandable.

We have not met and my offerings are unique and difficult to grasp intellectually.

All feelings are welcome and encouraged in my sessions.

When I sense resistance, I acknowledge it directly and give it full permission to exist.

This is how I build a foundation of safety and trust with my clients, and it's what ultimately allows me to be invited in 💚

It's really beautiful to witness the softening and the coming home, especially when there has been a lot of resistance and holding on.

As a somatic practitioner, I help clients integrate safety and find resolution where there's unrest and blocked energy held in the body.

If I'm not working at the root level of what a client is holding in their body, I am limited in my ability to truly help them heal at a cellular level.

Our tissues hold more than just our own unresolved "stuff." We also carry our parents' unresolved issues, their parents', and so on.

This energy keeps getting passed down the line, causing health issues and suffering, until we bring these deeper parts to rest.

My mission is to teach bodyworkers and somatic practitioners how to truly deepen their practice with clients.

That means learning to access and work with the unseen stories and emotions held within the body.

True freedom and wholeness only come from working at this depth.

I have a couple of spots left in my advanced and
beginners' training.

This training will change your clients' lives, and yours too, profoundly.

Please pass on my details to any somatic practitioner/ bodyworker/ therapists ready to expand their practice.

Thank you ❤️

Unresolved trauma and repressed emotions are held in your body. To move forward in your life, it's essential to resolve and shift these emotions from your body. Through psychosomatic therapy, bodywork, inner parts work, and family constellation therapy, I will gently assist you in working with these...

"Dear Mum/Dad, I love you so deeply that I chose to carry your pain, the things you did not want to see or feel. Not realising the toll it would take – how profoundly your burdens would impact my health and my freedom. I embodied all of it, for you"

These powerful sentiments are expressed in my sessions regularly.

The love a child holds for a parent is unlike anything else.

Children unconsciously absorb whatever parents are unwilling to confront, including
significant generational trauma.

People often ask if I work with children.

My answer is no, not directly.

However, I can help your children by working with you.

It's often when other avenues haven't quite resonated that clients find their way to me, typically when they're truly ready for profound change.

The work we do together runs deep.

By connecting with the wisdom held within your body, we can explore the very depths of your soul.

Facilitating such profound and transformative work is a responsibility I hold with deep care and integrity, particularly as my gifts allow me to access insights that might otherwise remain hidden.

Soul work, by its nature, needs ample time for processing and integration.

To honour this, I'm implementing a new policy: a five-week minimum period will now be required between sessions.

Should you choose to book within this timeframe, the session will be a counselling session, as I'll focus on verbal support rather than deeper body processes during that period.

Our minds often push for speed, but our bodies thrive on slowness – it’s how they feel safe and build trust.

Ensuring your safety is always priority.

I'll be away for all of August.

Kindly note that the price for all one-hour sessions will be $220, effective September 1st.

Thank you for your ongoing support 🧡

Emotional Release Therapy

I have been on a life long quest exploring different modalities of therapy and healing to assist me in overcoming some personal challenges and to break free from limiting thought forms. My background is in the performing arts, working with children, and counselling. I recently had a strong calling to shift things on a cellular level and believed that bodywork was the right tool for me. That’s when I discovered Psychosomatic Therapy. This work completely turned me upside down, inside out and aided me to go beyond what I thought was possible.

Through Psychosomatic Therapy we are able to gain a deeper understanding as to what is happening in one’s subconscious. From one’s posture, tissue quality, quantity and physical expression, we are able to gather an insight into what is happening in the mind and where there may be opportunities to release blocked emotions.

Emotional Release Therapy compliments my holistic counselling and my strong intuition. I am grateful to help other’s realise their potential and move forward with love and grace. x
