Catalyst

You can have complete trust in my competency as a catalyst for transformation. Half-Indian, half-English I worked as an international film star then entered a decade of deep meditation and studied the mind. This journey seeded a profound understanding of the human experience which informs my approach to supporting leaders, creatives, and those in the public eye. I offer a rare, compassionate and nuanced insight into what it truly means to evolve as a human.

My methods are eclectic, intuitive, and solution-focused. I am certified in Psychotherapy, Hypnotherapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) developed at Oxford University. My background as a Sage from a Nāga lineage allows for the perception of the finer levels of reality that shape our lives.

I help you identify blind spots, develop deeper perspectives on complex situations, and cognize creative solutions to even the most calcified problems. Clients report rapid shifts in consciousness far faster than they anticipated.

Please note that my work is entirely inclusive; your personal beliefs, faith, and worldview are deeply respected and integrated into our sessions, ensuring a container that feels authentic and unique to you.

I am deeply committed to helping clients awaken and navigate profound shifts into clarity and power. In your sessions, you will feel seen, understood, and uplifted. Everything you share is held in a compassionate, strictly confidential, and sacred space. You will gain deep insights, expanded awareness, and the ability to make intuitive decisions. You will feel lighter, reconnected to a natural flow, and finally, yourself—perhaps for the first time.

Bookings

My work is highly tailored to the specific needs and goals of each client. I work with a limited number of private clients per month, as my services are designed for those seeking high-level, intensive transformation. I offer sessions in person at my London practice and via secure video conferencing for clients globally.

To begin, please send a detailed message via the contact page regarding what you are seeking to shift or achieve. Following a brief initial assessment, I will provide a bespoke proposal that ensures we have the right structure to support your journey.
