I have helped people to live from peace and joy for over 25 years through mentoring, counselling, acupuncture, journey work & ceremony. Since the 1990s, I have helped hundreds of people from all backgrounds to heal their bodies and find inner peace, through a combination of spiritual counselling and acupuncture. My own personal journey has very much deepened the work that I offer in recent years. Helping people to feel vibrant, alive and comfortable in their bodies has always been the mainstay of my practice. I trained in Acupuncture in the 1990's and also spent over 10 years at the Nutri Centre in London advising supplements, herbs and nutrition to aid well being. Right alongside my acupuncture and healing practice for clients, my own private spiritual journey has consistently lit my heart. I have spent precious time in Asia chanting in ashrams and meditating, and have held groups in my home discussing the non dual teachings of A Course in Miracles. I was ordained as a One Spirit Minister in 2000. I have led many ceremonies and have held space for countless clients as they've dived deep into their pain and come out the other side. It is my complete joy to offer this. Nothing could have prepared me, nor taken me to greater depths of being than dealing with the shock of my own cancer diagnosis in 2019! It initially catapulted me into a blur of adrenalin fuelled processes, juicing, endless supplements, herbs treatments and therapies... I knew what to do right?....healing was what I did, except this time I was applying it to me! As for the conventional medicine I'd accepted, the tumours I had removed in a panic immediately grew back and the immunotherapy I'd reluctantly acquiesced to didn't work. After 6 months, I finally capitulated and admitted that, despite more than 2 decades in this field, my habitual way of thinking and working out problems hadn’t a clue how to heal this. Somewhere I knew that a force greater than my every day mind knew exactly what to do. The fear was immense! It seemed that I had no choice: either I dissolved into a mass of petrified dreams as I clung to what I thought should be happening in my idealised life, or I let go of my grip on how I thought my body and my future should look, let go of every concept I had as to who I thought I was, let go even of the desperate drive to survive, to be there for my family. In my terror, I thought it would be the end of me. To my complete surprise, Grace took over right where I let go of my control. I fell into indescribable boundless presence, pure light, a spacious peace beyond words. More than this, sweet whisperings of sanity started guiding me as to what to do next, who to see, along with the certainty that I could trust I was safe. No matter what happened to my body, I could rest in this indescribable boundless light, this peace beyond bodily identification where everything felt perfect. I could rest in love, in Source, in God. I knew without a doubt that this wisdom and love (whatever we choose to call it... and yes, I know that last word is loaded) is the core identity of all of us and how incredibly blessed I felt to be finally leaning into it. This deep inner peace, beyond anything I've experienced in this world, gave me strength and courage to meet my grievances and fears with love, to forgive and let go of age old traumas, and be guided as to what was next. The more I let go of any outcome, the more I learned to trust the inner voice that told me that all is well. It wasn't plain sailing. I had frequent times of doubt and tears, but I received some immense help along the way, met outstanding teachers and was supported with beautiful friendships, for which I’ll always be grateful. To mine and my consultant’s incredulity, the cancer entirely disappeared (despite his assurance that this would not be possible). Since this time, my spiritual practice has deepened immensely and as a result, my work with clients has also deepened. I continue to walk the path myself and feel hugely grateful to help others to courageously embrace their shadows, heal false limiting beliefs and let go of thoughts of unworthiness, guilt, blame and shame (which are always based on past misinterpretations). Only love remains when all that is untrue has been removed; that's our true identity. My greatest passion is to hold awareness of the light and innocence that is the deepest reality of another (whether or not they are aware of this), whilst layers of false thinking dissolves and heals. This work takes courage; it can take you to the depths of your darkness, but also can liberate you beyond your wildest dreams into peace and freedom. If anything I’ve said here resonates for you, I would be delighted to act as your guide and healer along your journey. I offer spiritual counselling & mentoring,
1-1 and group guidance through A Course in Miracles (whose wisdom I love and has helped me so much!),
and deep journeying into emotional patterns to find and release core wounds. All of this is possible via zoom. If you happen to live close to me, I still love my acupuncture practice and very happily see clients. I also offer life ceremonies, please click ‘services’ for more info. My greatest joy is to help you to find peace in the every day and awaken to the light and strength that you are! In letting go of all that you value in this world, you will be amazed at the immeasurable peace you will find...and how your vitality is freed up to heal! (yes, it's the irony of it all!). If you feel drawn to work with me, then take the next step and schedule a call, and who knows, we might be working together and journeying together on this path,
Thank you for reading this far. With love,
Andrea

Ceremonies and celebrations with heart

I have offered ceremonies imbued with heart, passion, mystical connection and depth for over 20 years. The furthest I’ve travelled for a ceremony is Portugal and the nearest is the next village to where we live. All ceremonies are uniquely co- created for you. I have listed below some of the ceremonies I regularly offer. I would be delighted to chat with you to clarify what you envisage for your special occasion.

Weddings and Vow Renewals~ Many couples are now seeking spiritual weddings, hand fastings or simply personal ceremonies outside the restrictions of a particular denomination and as an alternative to civil weddings. The beauty of opting for a marriage ceremony led by an interfaith minister is that you can weave into the service your own spiritual understanding of life with blessings that are meaningful to you, in a place of your choice. Ceremonies are often held in stunning locations, in the countryside or by the sea. I work with you to understand what your coming together means to you, how you envisage your lives together, where you feel strong as a couple, what your spiritual beliefs are, if any and much more.

I always encourage couples to write their own vows, with guidance if they feel they'd like to, and work with what is sacred to you.

Funerals and Memorial Services~ Many families opt for an interfaith service because it’s a huge comfort to honour a loved one in a way that is supportive of the person’s traditions, beliefs and ideologies.
