Meet the Founder: The Heart Behind The Australian Holistic Academy.
I’m Michelle, the founder of The Australian Holistic Academy — a space created from the deep desire to support practitioners in becoming the grounded, heart-led guides their clients truly need.
My journey into holistic wellbeing began as an energy healer. It was powerful and transformational, yet I noticed something was missing. Session after session, clients would return seeking deeper support, not just energetic realignment, but emotional healing, guidance, and someone who could walk alongside them as they navigated the root cause of their pain.
This calling led me to become a Holistic Counsellor, to deepen my own capacity, and meet my clients with the presence and tools they deserved.
But it wasn’t just professional. Years ago, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. I experienced firsthand the toll of stress and disconnection, and the transformation that came when I turned inward. Through meditation, soul work, and emotional healing, I found a new sense of peace and vitality that changed everything. My health improved, but so did my relationship with myself. That became the foundation of how I work and why I do what I do.
Now, after nearly six years in the industry, I’ve seen what happens when practitioners are given the right training and soul-led support. They go beyond surface-level fixes. They hold safe, trauma-informed space. They help clients find lasting clarity, healing, and alignment.
That’s the vision behind The Australian Holistic Academy.
We’re here to guide the next generation of heart-centred practitioners, those who feel called to do deeper work, who want to support others not just with technique but with soul, who want to make an impact in the lives of others while living in alignment with their own values.
This is more than a training college. It’s a movement for a new kind of practitioner, rooted in wisdom, integrity, and deep presence.
If that speaks to you, I invite you to explore this journey with us.
