Private 1:1 Transformational Coaching

I am a certified practitioner and coach of Neuro Transformation Therapy (NTT), trained in Timeline Therapy and subconscious reprogramming. My work is rooted in the understanding that real change happens not just through mindset shifts but through the nervous system, the body, and understanding the deeper "why" beneath our patterns.

My deepest passion is helping those navigating grief, heartbreak, identity shifts, and the deep longing to feel more alive, connected, and grounded in their true essence.

During our discovery call, we will explore your hopes and visions for the future and any challenges that you are facing in your life. This is a safe, welcoming space to fully express the complexity of what is alive in you so you can fully be seen, heard, and understood.

My coaching method combines:

✅ Neuroscience-backed coaching tools to identify and shift the 7 core elements driving any stuck pattern

✅ Behavioural psychology and deep inquiry to uncover the root cause behind recurring challenges

✅ Intuitive guidance to help you learn how to listen to your body, your inner knowing, and what life is trying to teach you

✅ Embodiment practices and ritual to target the roots of our limiting beliefs and behaviour patterns, anchor lasting change in your nervous system, not just your thoughts

Whether you’re moving through loss, rebuilding your life after rupture, or simply hearing the call for more - it’s time to come home to yourself.

You don’t have to do it alone.

Working with Vanessa has honestly been one of the most powerful investments I’ve made in myself. She is so genuine, deeply knowledgeable, and truly cares about the women she works with. you can feel that in every session. She creates such a safe space where you feel seen, heard, and supported, but she also gently challenges you to step outside your comfort zone and grow in ways you didn’t even realise you needed. Through working with Vanessa, I’ve gained so much clarity, confidence, and self-awareness. She has this incredible way of helping you connect the dots between your past, your patterns, and the life you actually want to create. If you’re wanting real transformation and someone who will walk beside you with compassion and wisdom, I couldn’t recommend Vanessa more highly.

Life is SO much richer and more purposeful thanks to the presence and impact of Vanessa in my life. Over the last few years I have immersed myself in Vanessa’s full range of services - sound healings, 1:1 coaching, a 1:1 grief & renewal ceremony, and more… which has helped me move through some really fked up times: an intense breakup, a friendship betrayal, and a chronic state of shutdown, doubt and deep fear of pursuing my dreams. Vanessa is a POWERHOUSE spiritual mentor, coach and sound artist. Her teachings are so authentic, deep, transformational, peaceful and energising all at once. If you’re looking to transform yourself - for GOOD - that’s when you hire her as your coach.

I have been incredibly fortunate to have experienced Vanessa's guidance, insight and absolute genuine empathy many times and at times in my life when I have felt completely lost and alone within myself. Vanessa's calm presence and her ability to help you navigate through various stages and obstacles is definitely a talent and something she is very passionate about. Such a beautiful and genuine experience ✨️ aka the dog whisperer Thank you V 🧡🧡

Grief, Forgiveness and Renewal Ceremony

How we navigate our relationship with sorrow profoundly affects how we live after and during loss, with our rebirth tied intimately with the threads of gratitude and reverence - Francis Weller

Held in a serene bush setting in the Blue Mountains (NSW), this ritual creates a space for any unprocessed emotions and experiences to be unearthed and witnessed, shifting grief into a force that transforms life into purpose and meaning.

With the sacred altars of fire and water supporting our process, we will honour the five doorways of grief taught within the book written by US psychotherapist, The Wild Edge of Sorrow.

(1) Everything we love, we will ultimately grieve - immediate losses

(2) The places that have not known love - the parts within ourselves that we have neglected or shamed

(3) The sorrows of the world - grief over the state of world affairs

(4) What we expected and did not receive - unfulfilled hopes and dreams

(5) Ancestral grief - grief passed onto us from former generations.

1:1 grief ritual (allow 3 hours)

Private grief ritual (up to 5 people) (allow 4 hours)

The Grief Ritual that Vanessa hosted was by far one of the most life changing experiences I have ever had! After the passing of my Pop last year I felt I hadn't had the chance to properly grieve his passing as it was very sudden, and my Mum needed me for a tonne of support. So when I heard of the Grief ritual I practically RAN at the opportunity to process the grief I had stored in my mind, body and soul. From the moment I arrived at the venue I felt held, supported and able to drop into processing the grief I had been avoiding for months! Being in nature was something that my soul needed and to be in community with people, but have time to be alone and share and in nature it was the perfect combination of everything I needed to let go and trust my Pop was in a better place and that was okay! Vanessa is an incredible space holder for helping a group of people move through such incredibly sensitive emotions. I loved everything about this experience and want everyone else to know this is their safe space to come and process grief when they are going through it on their journeys.

Yesterday was stunning. Thank you for helping me navigate to the me I deserve to be. You really have seen it all and your non judgement and generosity is beyond words.

Venessa has been such an integral part of my healing journey. Her sound journeys have taken me to places outside of this realm. Allowing me to access my darkness, my light, my shadows and my subconscious for the DEEPEST healing experience. She has helped me immensely both on a personal and on a professional level with processing grief. During her sound baths I am able to connect with loved ones passed. As well as her grief retreats allowing me to crack myself open, surrender to my grief, sit with it and transmute it in a safe space. I would not be where I am today without Venessa guiding me through the depts of my emotions, without judgment, without expectations, but with pure love. I highly recommend journeying with Venessa in any way that feels aligned. I am forever grateful to have crossed paths with this beautiful soul in this life time.

Cacao Ceremony and Sound Journeys

These journeys are sacred spaces where you can slow down, exhale, and return to yourself. Designed to meet you wherever you are, they offer a gentle yet powerful way to tend to the parts of you that are often left unseen; the parts that crave silence, softness, and spaciousness.

We begin by sharing a cup of ceremonial cacao, brewed with herbs and flowers to support your intention I will then guide you through a meditation to settle the body, clear the mind, and open the space for any emotions or insights that want to arise. Within this spaciousness we return to a state of deep listening and alignment.

Then, you’ll be invited to lie down and receive a live sound journey. Using the healing frequencies of handpan, crystal singing bowls and other vibrational instruments, I create a sensory experience that helps regulate the nervous system, quieten internal noise, and deepen your connection to your inner world.

Private 1:1 sound journey (90 min, includes 30 min integration coaching) - $150

Optional cacao ceremony (+ 15 min) + $10

Private group (min 2 people) cacao ceremony and sound journey in your home (90 min) - please contact me for availability and pricing

I had the most beautiful and life-changing experience with Vanessa’s sound healing. The session was so deeply relaxing, but what touched me most was the journey I went on. In my dream, I was reunited with my grandmother, who passed away 30 years ago. For the very first time, I felt her hug, it was so real, so warm, so healing, that I found myself crying while my soul was being restored. This moment touched me to the core, and it’s something I will never forget 🥹🥰 Vanessa creates such a safe, sacred space that allows true transformation and connection. Beyond sound healing, she also offers transformational coaching, grief rituals, and powerful guidance that support healing, growth, and empowerment on every level. If you’re looking for more than just relaxation, if you’re ready for deep healing, self-discovery, and soul transformation, I cannot recommend Vanessa enough, she is truly amazing, I’m so blessed to have known her 😇🙏💖

If you ever had the pleasure to hear Vanessa play, you know it will be an experience that is one of a kind. Merging traditional instruments with instruments she acquired overseas, she brings to you the land & connection to nature and so much more. With her handpan, whistles, chimes and sound bowls galore, she transports you into another world & with her ancient modality style guides you to your inner being, leaving you feeling safe, empowered and ready to take on the world. Highly recommend an experience with Vanessa
