What Clients Are Saying

I found out about Michaela from a friend, who highly recommended her earlier this year to support me through some profound grief. I am so grateful that he did! As a therapist myself, I hold exceptionally high standards and Michaela exceeds every one of them. Her presence is soothing, grounded, and deeply attuned. She isn’t afraid to guide you into profound emotional territory or inner child work, yet she does so in a way that feels very nurturing, supportive, and firmly connected to the body. This makes the whole process very gentle. Working with her felt like arriving somewhere safe, like home. I always felt held, supported and met with genuine care, as though if I began to fall, she would catch me with ease. And her somatic techniques and tools are very simple yet powerful, I have even started sharing my favourite ones with my own clients!

Michaela guided me through an extraordinary process of [embodied processing] with music. Her beautiful calm voice was like honey leading me into a calm safe space. She intuitively led me through the process. I felt held, listened to, accepted and acknowledged.

I would highly recommend Michaela as a practitioner, she has something so beautifully unique 💝

— Liz Webster

I felt drawn to Michaela’s work having read other people's experiences and recommendations of her.

Michaela, from the moment we connected, I felt I was being held safe by your presence, that I was safe to share personal details with you. I felt your energy was so warm and gentle and you were so kind and supportive, giving me reassurance when I wasn't giving it to myself. This has helped me recognise how hard I am on myself, and even though I can be there for myself to some degree, it highlighted how a lot of the time I'm being horrible to myself, to the parts of me that need me the most. I felt you were intuitive, empathic, confident and knowledgeable in your practice, and a genuinely lovely person.

Michaela is a lovely warm, supportive, knowledgeable Somatic practitioner. I felt safe with her straight away. This enabled me to explore more within myself during our time together with her gentle, intuitive guidance. I will definitely be recommending Michaela to other people.

Before I started working with you, I felt overall heavy stressed and burnt out, down, low, generally depressed and stuck. Overtime, I started feeling more positive, and more hopeful that I can help myself. Your calm and open nature was very welcoming and comforting right from the start. I had no idea what I was doing but felt comfortable just going with it anyway :) The first session I felt good, surprised at the power of this work, although I didn't really feel like I was doing much. The following sessions I felt amazing!! Again, totally surprised, I giggled, burped, had strong visions and freeing feelings and then cried at how powerful it was. I think you are fabulous! You have been absolutely wonderful at helping me explore my own care and wellbeing and explaining everything as we go, and then just being quiet and allowing me to explore the feelings but also quietly guiding me. It's a bit difficult to put in to words and I know everyone will have different experiences, so all I can say is, give it a try! You won't be disappointed, Michaela is amazing at what she does and you feel so so comfortable and just free to let it all out, whatever it is :)

My somatic healing journey with Michaela was absolutely transformative. From the moment I stepped into her space, I could feel her beautiful energy, calm, grounding, and full of light. Michaela is truly a wonderful soul who creates a safe, nurturing environment that allows for deep connection and release.  Her somatic journeying session was a gentle yet powerful experience. Instead of focusing on the mind, Michaela guides you inward, helping you feel into your body, connect with your breath, and regulate your nervous system in such an intuitive, compassionate way. I was amazed at how much emotion and tension I had been holding without realizing it, and how supported I felt in letting it all move through me. Michaela helps you access the parts of healing that words alone can’t reach. If you’re looking for a profound yet gentle approach to healing, Michaela is an absolute gift. Her wisdom, presence, and loving guidance make every session a true journey back home to your body and your heart.

Before I met with Michaela, I was less connected to my body and didn’t understand physical symptoms are information - I would often ignore unpleasant sensations and aches. I am now able to easily connect to my body and have tools and techniques from our sessions that help me manage physical feelings and emotions as they happen. I am now loving letting go of pain held within and making space for peace and joy.

In our first couple of sessions she was cautious about approaching my nervous system with anything too dense or negative and so we kept it light until trust and assurance was confirmed.  It didn’t take long though and I thoroughly enjoy every session, even when something unpleasant or scary comes up, I know I am supported by Michaela and her beautiful feminine energy that radiates throughout sessions I have had. 

If you embark on this work with her, my advice is to trust her process and trust your body.  Michaela is a wonderful guide and will always honour you and you getting to know yourself.  

There is no judgment - she is here for you and wants the best for you. Everytime we meet, no matter how I have shown up, she will show up in beautiful energy, holding space for me.  By the end of each session I leave with profound insights and in loving, peaceful energy.  

I am so grateful to regularly receive the insights I learn in these sessions and to have met Michaela because her work has shifted me dramatically for the better.

Before I connected with Michaela, I felt quite down, low energy, cornered and alone. After our sessions I felt uplifted, confident and full of energy. During my journey with Michaela, I experienced profound realisation of becoming and embodying inner child and being cared for and loved by higher self. Starting from the introduction right through to the conclusion, everything was beautifully, caringly, compassionately and professionally organised and executed. A profoundly touching and moving experience with Michaela, which not only uplifted me energetically, I also gained much needed insights into my soul journey that helped me understand and answer so many of the questions I had. Thank you hugely and God Bless you my dear.

Having worked with you for some time, I am now very present in my body, with a deep inner knowing that is now guiding me more so than my mind. I love that my body finally feels heard and so my energy can land here. I love the absolute fine tune subtlety that you can see as I move through the process. I feel so seen and so held by you. Your voice is very soothing, and I particularly enjoy how much you join in with the verbal releases, that helps me to feel so supported. I have really enjoyed the slow process of moving deeper under your guidance, and your very consistent checking in to make sure I can always handle where things are going. I really like that you remind me that it's my body and that at anytime I can do what feels right for me. Just that constant reminder that this is my space and my body helps me so much - to remember that after years of bypassing myself to meet others’ needs. After each session I always feel much more centred and stable within. Sometimes I feel a little tired but there’s always a sense of relief.

Michaela is a natural at this. She makes you feel so calm and relaxed, she is very softly spoken and feminine which makes you feel very calm and supported. Not only that, the techniques she deploys allow you to address the issues you are facing really quickly but you never feel pressured to go anywhere you’re not ready for. Her calm, kind guidance always makes me feel very relaxed and allows me to explore the issues that I’m dealing with. 

— Tom

Michaela is beautiful soul, she holds a wonderful comforting space for you to open your heart and relax into your body, she has such warmth which allows you to speak openly and deep into what is coming up. Her intuition is amazing, she knows exactly how to guide you, it’s like she’s feeling it all with you and knows exactly how to respond to what’s coming up and how to guide you. The beautiful music the energy and the space I went to was divine 💗 

— Nic O'Leary

My journey with Michaela was amazing. It was lovely to be given the time to focus on myself and my needs. I was able to deeply relax and tune into my body and intuition. Right at the start, I set the intention to feel deeply, and my body gave me a few parts to explore during our time together. A couple of the parts were familiar and I have been working on them recently, however I also received guidance from a new part which will benefit my wellbeing going forwards. I have never made this connect in my mind before, regarding this new part, so I am grateful to have been given the opportunity to be shown this connection and given the guidance.

Michaela has a beautiful presence about her and creates a soft, welcoming, gentle and safe space. Michaela's voice is so soothing and calming and makes me feel deeply held. I also love the tool she gave me at the end of our time together as this is something that I can easily implement into my daily life to further support my inner journey. Michaela has a beautiful gift of guiding you back home to yourself.

Michaela holds a loving and safe container allowing me to let go of pain and connect more deeply with my heart. I always felt supported in my process and feel that I can now lean into my vulnerability with more confidence.  

— Allison D

Michaela has a really supportive and grounded presence. I felt genuinely listened to and cared for throughout the session. Her guidance was gentle but clear, and it helped me reconnect with a younger part of myself in a way that felt safe and natural. I left the session feeling lighter and more connected.

— Francois

The somatic journey I experienced with Michaela was very healing. I loved the journey we were able to go on together, it was really relaxing. Michaela’s loving energy is magnetic, I felt very safe, heard, held and supported. I enjoyed the tone of Michaela voice and the music was just right. I felt most supported by Michaela’s energy and presence. I felt so open, safe and loved. 

— Buffie Shondell

Michaela guided me beautifully through the session, grounding me and resourcing me. She then incorporated music throughout the session which was amazing. Selecting music that fitted so well with the context what we were exploring. An amazing session which really shifted something within.

— S Wyatt

It was a wonderful experience, I felt that my energies expanded, I know something healed on a deeper level as I had felt so much love towards others. An hour after my session, I had a heart expansion and my throat chakra was pulsating. Michaela has such a lovely peaceful energy and is very humble for having such a wonderful gift. 

— Jennifer Y

Before working with Michaela I was experiencing anxiety. Afterwards I felt much calmer and more optimistic. This work has really helped me come back home to my body, I feel more present, confident, and aligned.

— Stefka Nikolova

Michaela gently led me through a beautiful session that took me to some unexpected places and allowed me to meet some parts of myself that I look forward to working with in the future.

Michaela set a beautiful tone for the session and was able to create a safe container in which I was able to explore some places that despite being uncomfortable, were very cathartic and insightful. I felt safe and completely supported by Michaela throughout. She allowed me to really embody the exploration whilst feeling thoroughly resourced and held.

She is a natural at this work and will be a blessing to those who work with her.

Michaela guided me through a supportive and safe somatic journey to help me overcome my personal circumstances. She made me feel so comfortable and relaxed and I felt open to release some heavy emotions and tension. There was no pressure or judgement, just a sense of support and genuine compassion. I felt incredibly relaxed and felt I completely let go. Michaela shared some beautiful techniques and wisdom along the way to support me. I’m incredibly grateful for the kindness she showed me. I particularly loved the breathing exercises and the use of self massage, which really helped me relax and Michaela’s soothing voice really helped to relieve anxiety. 

— K

Before my journey with Michaela I felt a little bit raw and sensitive. After each session I felt empowered and excited. I feel like I was easily able to get into a relaxed state and Michaela guided me really well with her soft, gentle demeanor and kindness. She asked great questions that guided me to discovering some deep past emotional wounds.

— CG

It was a beautiful session, I truly enjoyed every single moment, I’ve connected to my worry and anger and Michaela helped me by holding a safe space for me so I could release it. It was a beautiful powerful session. Thank you!

— Kat
