and you get to have it.
the three parts of you
I work with clients like you to adopt a whole-body approach. Our sessions are based around the three parts of you:
​
mind: your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions and how they shape your behaviours and mental health.
body: somatic healing and connection with your body.
soul: your spiritual wellbeing, whether that involves connecting to purpose, values, or your deeper self. This can encompass spirituality, but it doesn’t have to; it’s ultimately about reaching a place of profound self-connection and meaning.
does this sound familiar?
You feel stuck and unable to show up fully in your career, relationships, and life.
You wake up exhausted, with little energy to pursue your dreams.
You know there are past traumas and pains that have not been processed.
Anxiety, stress, or overwhelm are regular struggles.
You feel guilty about taking time for yourself.
You're holding onto pain from past relationships or experiences and struggling to heal.
It feels like life is working against you.
You sense there’s more for you but don’t know where to start.
Setting boundaries and saying no is hard, leaving you frustrated and resentful.
Parenting challenges often push you to lose your cool.
You seek love and validation outside of yourself.
Self-criticism is constant, and you put yourself down often.
Comparing yourself to others brings deep feelings of jealousy.
Despite trying, you struggle to find positivity in your days.
You have a deep, inner-knowing that there is more for you out there.
i hear you, i see you & i'm here to support and guide you.
it doesn't have to be this way anymore.
i'm shorina, your holistic counsellor and wellbeing coach.
I am excited to guide you through a whole-body approach that brings together the mind, body, and soul for a deeply life-altering and healing experience.
My goal is to help you step into the happiest, healthiest, and most purpose-driven version of yourself.
When we work together, you’ll learn foundational elements that support your mental health and wellbeing, so that you can reach that beautiful life you dream of.
I create a safe, nurturing space where you can release past traumas, let go of self-limiting beliefs, and embrace life with a fresh, empowered perspective.
Central to my practice is a unique, structured process I’ve developed, called The Healing Framework. Drawing from my extensive background in counselling, somatic trauma therapy, mindfulness, and other specialised certifications, The Healing Framework provides a flexible yet powerful approach that we’ll move through together in our sessions.
armed with a diploma of counselling, somatic trauma therapy certification and mindfulness practitioner diploma, and 20+ specialty certifications, you know you're in good hands (and heart).
the healing framework
While I will always adapt each phase to meet your personal needs, goals and journey, here’s how the framework is designed to guide you:
​
Phase One: The Basics
To build a strong foundation for healing, we’ll focus first on the essentials -staying hydrated, eating nourishing meals, getting quality sleep, moving your body, and connecting with nature. These practices are often overlooked but must come first on any healing journey.
​
Phase Two: Safety
Next, we’ll work together to establish a sense of safety, both within yourself and in your surroundings (and within our relationship, of course). This phase is highly personal and can take time, but it is an essential part of creating the stability needed for healing.
​
Phase Three: Mind
In this phase, we’ll dive into your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions to explore how they shape your behaviors and mental health. Through this deeper work, you’ll begin to release old patterns, rewrite your narrative, and reshape your outlook on life.
​
Phase Four: Body
This phase focuses on somatic healing and reconnection with your body. Here, we’ll work with any trauma stored in the body and cultivate a deeper connection to your physical self, which is needed for long-lasting and sustainable healing.
​
Phase Five: Soul
The final phase is about supporting your spiritual wellbeing, whether that involves connecting to purpose, values, or your deeper self. This phase can encompass spirituality, but it doesn’t have to; it’s ultimately about reaching a place of profound self-connection and meaning.
i've been there too.
I understand your challenges, because I’ve lived through them myself. For years, I felt stuck in a relentless cycle of hardship and pain. I know what it’s like to feel buried by life’s struggles.
My life included every low point you could imagine: living alone at 14, enduring abusive relationships, losing my home to a storm, surviving a car accident that left me with a lifelong back injury, battling severe burnout, and experiencing traumatic births with my two children. It felt overwhelming and impossible to escape.
​
For nearly a decade, I moved from one traumatic experience to the next, without any sense of relief. To be honest, I didn't think I’d make it to 20 years old.
I was filled with self-hate, resentment, and exhaustion, and I often turned that pain inward, with self-harm and eventually an attempt to end my life. I was depressed, anxious, and completely lost, so when I say I understand the lowest of lows, I truly mean it.
Then, one day, I woke up and something shifted. I decided that I had had enough. I was tired of carrying all that pain, of feeling exhausted and trapped in a life that didn’t bring me joy or peace. I was done with allowing others to treat me poorly and with all the self-hate that had become my daily reality. I was ready for something different. I wanted to experience life in a new way, and I was willing to commit fully to change.
​
That decision became a turning point in my life. I promised myself I’d prioritise my own wellbeing and approach life differently. From that day forward, I committed to healing and growth, step by step. Over time, everything transformed. I discovered a life filled with meaning, self-respect, and a deep sense of peace.​​​
now, i use my experiences to help others find their way out of the darkness, to heal and grow. i’m here to show you that real change is possible, no matter how impossible it might seem. together, we’ll work to help you build a life that feels deeply fulfilling, joyful, and aligned with who you truly are.
