Stories of Transformation

My work is devoted to supporting women in the sacred journey home to themselves - reconnecting to their truth, power, sovereignty and creative essence in an embodied way, creating tangible, lasting change.

Perhaps you have been carrying grief, trauma, emotional exhaustion, or survival patterns for longer than you realise. Perhaps you have spent years over-giving, people-pleasing, abandoning your own needs, struggling to use your voice, be seen, or hold healthy boundaries. Perhaps you feel disconnected from your intuition, your body, others or life itself…

I want you to know that long-lasting healing is possible when you have the right support and tools to meet you where you are.

The personal stories below are shared by women who once felt the same way and have experienced the profound shifts that can occur when we choose to heal, reconnect, and come home to ourselves fully.

“When I first met Heliena, I was in a very bad place. I felt helpless, heavy and emotionally exhausted. I had lost touch with joy, my body, and my sense of hope. I was deeply disconnected from myself and stuck in survival mode for years - just trying to get through each day, one foot in front of the other. There was no light, no spark.

It was from this place that I began working with Heliena. Several years and multiple sessions later, I could not be in a more different place.

Now, I live from deep embodiment, joy and clarity. I feel radiant, safe in my body, connected to my intuition, my sensuality and my pleasure. I LOVE myself. I trust myself. I feel grounded, deeply present, intentional and completely in flow with life. The shifts within me now flow into every area of my life — my children, my relationships, my creations and the way I move through the world.

For the first time in my life, I no longer seek validation outside of myself. I now self-source my worth, wisdom, joy, truth and safety from within instead of constantly needing it externally. To me, that is real healing.

Heliena embodies the divine feminine in its truest form. There is no judgement in her - only extraordinary compassion, integrity, presence and unconditional love. She sees beyond the layers and meets the truth of who you really are, sometimes before you can even fully see it yourself. She creates a level of safety that allows you to become truly vulnerable, and that alone is profoundly healing.

I genuinely believe Heliena has access to a level of healing that is extraordinarily rare. The shifts she facilitates are profound, immediate and long lasting. What she does is difficult to explain because it goes far beyond what most people think of as healing. She works simultaneously on emotional, energetic, physical, spiritual and nervous system levels, and you do not need to intellectually understand it to feel the depth of what has occurred. You simply know something profound has shifted.

What makes her work even more powerful is that she does not create dependency. She equips you with the tools, awareness and understanding needed to continue growing and healing long after the session itself. She does not ask you to seek your power through her…she guides you back to yourself.

Would I describe her work as miraculous? Absolutely. Working with Heliena has been one of the greatest blessings of my life.”

“Working with Heliena has been one of the most profound healing experiences of my life, and continues to be so. It is honestly difficult to fully articulate her work because so much of what happens within her sessions exists beyond conventional language or understanding. The shifts are emotional, physical, energetic, spiritual, and deeply embodied all at once. It is something that is felt and lived more than explained. When I first came to Heliena, I was carrying years of emotional pain, nervous system exhaustion, grief, survival patterns, body shame, and deeply rooted wounds connected to self-worth and femininity. After losing my mother in 2022, my body and life went into a state of shock and survival that I now realise I had been living inside for a very long time. I felt disconnected from myself, disconnected from softness, disconnected from my body, and disconnected from a deeper sense of trust and peace within life itself.

What Heliena creates is not simply a healing session - she creates an incredibly safe, gentle, grounded space where the body, heart, and nervous system can finally soften enough to begin healing at the deepest layers. One of the most extraordinary parts of working with her has been the depth she is able to access, even during distance healing sessions. During our work together she connected with energies and imagery that became deeply significant throughout my healing journey, including the feminine restoration, and deep ancestral and emotional healing work. These themes continued unfolding long after the sessions themselves and became part of a much larger transformation within my life. The changes I experienced were not only emotional or spiritual. They became tangible and physical as well. After almost 40 years of chronic nail biting, something shifted within me after our healing work and my nails began growing naturally and beautifully for the first time in my life. What was a source of shame and felt impossible for decades dissolved gently and organically. It felt symbolic of my nervous system no longer needing to exist in a constant state of tension, anxiety, and self-protection. It was my body trusting in me, and me trusting in my body for the first time in my life. Heliena also helped me begin healing long-held wounds connected to eating disorders, control, shame, grief, and generational pain.

Through her guidance I was able to reconnect to myself, reconnect to my body with compassion, and even reconnect to my mother in a deeply loving and healing way. What makes her work so powerful is not only her gifts, but the way she holds people while doing it. There is a rare combination of softness and strength within Heliena. She is incredibly intuitive and deeply gifted, yet also humble, gentle, grounded, and safe. She has the ability to hold immense emotional and energetic depth while making someone feel deeply cared for, respected, protected, and seen. At no point did the work feel overwhelming or forceful. Instead, it felt like being carefully guided back toward myself. The healing also does not stop at the session itself. This is something I value enormously about her work. Heliena continually offers guidance, meditations, tools, insight, and practices that allow the healing and integration to continue long afterwards. Rather than creating dependency, she helps people reconnect to their own intuition, their own body, and their own inner power.

Over time, the ripple effects of this work have touched every area of my life. I became softer within myself. More emotionally regulated and connected to my body instead of fighting it. More open-hearted, intuitive, grounded and trusting. I truly became more feminine in a way that felt embodied and powerful rather than performative, which I know so many women can relate to. It truly feels as though Heliena helped awaken something within me that had been buried beneath years of survival, grief, overprotection, and emotional armour. For anyone considering working with her, I can honestly say that her work has been unlike anything I have ever experienced. The transformations that unfold may not always fit neatly into words, but they are deeply real, deeply felt, and life changing in the gentlest and most beautiful way. I will always be profoundly grateful for the role she has played in my healing journey and I hope to continue to work with her for the rest of my days.”

  • Before working with Heliena, I didn't realise how much I had been living in survival mode. I used my husband as a shield and a buffer when I felt overwhelmed around other people. I've always found it hard to make friends because I've never felt good enough. I've never truly felt loved or felt real joy or connection with others, except for my kids. I had spent most of my life with a hard persona up. Sstuck in fight and flight. I had been carrying so much for so long and I was chronically exhausted. When I first met Heliena, I felt something I had never felt before. She got me. She understood me. I had never felt that before. She made me feel safe. To be honest, I didn't really understand what it would involve until I experienced it for myself. She told me the basics of it, but I truly didn't understand until I went through it. As soon as I walked into the room, it felt calm and safe. The air around me, the smells, the sounds — everything felt right. Normally, I have a lot of aversion to smells and can find them quite overwhelming, but this felt different. Everything just felt exactly as it needed to be, and I immediately felt safe and at ease. During the session, Heliena knew exactly where to focus at the right time. There were moments where I felt like I needed my hand held, and she did, or support around my neck, and that happened too - all without me saying a word. I felt something heavy leaving my body through my arms and my tummy. At one point my tummy started hurting, she began working on this area and then the pain went away. Throughout the entire session I felt so safe and cared for. Afterwards, I couldn't believe the time. It felt like twenty minutes, but in reality it was over two hours. What I can say is that the heavy weight I had been carrying for so long truly lifted. After my session, I stopped taking my antidepressants, which I had been taking for years and personally never thought I would be off. For some reason that I can't explain, I just don't seem to need them anymore. I laughed for the first time. I know that sounds weird, but I had never truly laughed before. I didn't even know I could belly laugh and snort laugh, but I did, and it felt amazing. I walked away feeling lighter and I have so much more energy, and capacity for genuine connection now. What she has is a true gift. Thank you, Heliena.

  • When I first met Heliena, I was immediately drawn to her presence and energy. There is something about her that feels beyond our usual construct of time, as though she carries wisdom that is ancient in origin. I had the opportunity to work with her in a 1:1 healing session and, even though I didn't really know what to expect, I felt deeply supported and held throughout the entire experience. During the session, I experienced a profound connection with beings and energies from another realm, and Heliena shared a transmission that continues to resonate with me. Part of the healing was centred around helping me connect more deeply with my purpose and the path I am here to walk. Through the guidance that came through, I was invited to open to new possibilities, aligned opportunities, and the people and connections that could support me in both my career and life purpose journey. The insights and wisdom I received have helped me move forward into areas of my life that I did not even realise I was being called to explore. What stood out most was how safe I felt in her presence. There was a deep sense of trust and knowing that allowed me to fully surrender to the experience. For anyone considering working with her, I would say that the experience has the potential to be a very powerful catalyst for deep inner healing, personal transformation, and an opening to possibilities and opportunities you may not have known existed.

  • Before I had my life-changing session with Heliena, I had spent years in service to others, living in survival mode, people-pleasing, and unable to set strong boundaries or use my voice to speak up for myself. This had manifested as a state of constant fatigue. I had a wonderful understanding of health, spirituality, and wellbeing, but I was unable to implement all that I wanted to in order to fully weave it into the fabric of my everyday life. During my session, I experienced a huge emotional release. I could feel myself letting go of responsibilities that were not mine to carry. She cleared so much generational trauma that was keeping me incredibly stuck. It has now been almost two years, and I am living in a completely new reality. I am full of life force energy with so much more joy, I have incredible routines, habits, and self-care practices. I am still in service to others, as this is a beautiful part of who I am, but it is no longer to my detriment. In fact, it now uplifts me. I am forever grateful for Heliena coming into my life and for the opportunity to experience the pure, loving, and transformational healing that she offers.

  • Over the last few years, between menopause and life generally throwing a few curveballs my way, I felt like I'd lost a part of myself. I was carrying a lot of stress, running on empty, and constantly putting everyone else's needs before my own.

    Working with Heliena has helped me reconnect with myself in a way I didn't realise I needed. I've slowly let go of so much of the stress and pressure I was carrying, and I feel like I'm finally starting to unwind, breathe more deeply, and make myself a priority again.

    There is a real sense that a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I'm feeling calmer, more connected to myself, and much more in flow with life instead of constantly pushing through it. The changes haven't felt forced; they've unfolded naturally through the work we've done together.

    I'm incredibly grateful for Heliena's support, guidance, and gentle approach. It's been such a positive experience, and I honestly feel more like myself than I have in years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Healing is a living process of remembering, releasing, integrating, and becoming. It unfolds uniquely for each individual, often revealing deeper layers of awareness, understanding, healing, and transformation as the journey progresses.

Whether you are just beginning to explore this work or have already spent years investing in your healing and personal growth, it is natural to have questions as you consider the next step on your journey.

Below you will find answers to some of the questions I am most commonly asked. My intention is that they provide greater clarity, reassurance, and understanding as you consider how this work may support you on your journey.

If you have a question that is not answered here, I warmly invite you to book a Pre-Session Consultation so we can connect and explore your unique needs, intentions, and circumstances together.

  • Women come to this work for many different reasons.

    Some are navigating anxiety, burnout, grief and loss, trauma, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, relationship challenges, or recurring patterns/ inner blocks that they feel unable to clear or break away from.

    Others feel disconnected from themselves, their intuition, their inner feminine or masculine energies, purpose, joy, vitality, or sense of fulfilment and are seeking deeper healing, clarity, self-understanding, and transformation.

    At its core, this work supports women in understanding and transforming the deeper patterns, conditioning, wounds, and experiences that may be limiting their wellbeing, relationships, self-expression, and overall experience of life.

  • My work is deeply intuitive, personalised, and multidimensional.

    Rather than working solely with the conscious mind, I work with the layers that influence your experience of life, including the body, nervous system, subconscious mind, emotional landscape, energy field, higher self, and soul.

    Each session is guided by both what you consciously bring and the deeper intelligence that exists within you. Together, we uncover the patterns, beliefs, conditioning, unresolved emotions, unprocessed experiences, and inherited influences that may be contributing to what you are currently experiencing.

    To learn more - please read here.

  • Once your enquiry has been received, I will personally review your information and be in touch regarding the next steps.

    We will arrange a consultation to discuss your intentions, answer any questions, and determine the most aligned path forward.

    Payment details will be provided once your call has been confirmed.

  • No.

    You do not need to follow a particular belief system, religion, or spiritual practice to benefit from this work.

    While my approach acknowledges the spiritual dimensions of healing and personal growth, you do not need to have previous experience with spirituality or energy work in order to receive a session. The focus is ultimately on creating meaningful shifts within your life, your relationships, your wellbeing, and your connection to yourself.

  • No two sessions are ever the same.

    Each session begins with a period of preparation where I enter a deep meditative state, establish energetic protection, and prepare the space before the healing work begins.

    From there, the session unfolds according to what is most ready to be seen, understood, healed, released, or activated.

    Depending on your needs, the work may include multidimensional energy healing, intuitive guidance, nervous system support, subconscious reprogramming, emotional processing, somatic release, inner child healing, trans-generational healing, and integration guidance.

    For a more detailed overview of the process, please refer to the offering you are interested in.

  • No.

    While aspects of your past arise during a session, there is absolutely no requirement to relive traumatic experiences in order to heal.

    A core foundation of my work is cultivating safety within the body and nervous system first and foremost. From this place, healing is able to unfold in a way that feels supportive, nurturing, and safe.

    Often, healing involves bringing awareness, understanding, and acknowledgement to parts of ourselves that were unable to fully process, express, or release an experience when it originally occurred. As we work with these layers, emotional and somatic release can naturally occur as part of the body's healing and integration process.

    By working with the body, nervous system, subconscious mind, and energy field, it is often possible to process, release, and integrate what has been held without needing to relive traumatic experiences.

    One of the most common pieces of feedback I receive from clients is how safe, held, supported, and cared for they felt throughout the process — even when working with deeper emotions, experiences, or releases.

    My intention is always to create a safe and nurturing environment where healing can occur without force. Many women leave feeling lighter, more peaceful, more connected to themselves, and with a greater sense of clarity, freedom, and emotional wellbeing.

  • This is completely normal.

    For many women, reaching out for support and stepping into something unfamiliar can feel really  vulnerable. It is natural to have questions, uncertainties, or to feel nervous about what the experience may involve.

    My priority is always to create a space where you feel safe, comfortable, supported, and respected throughout the entire process. We move at a pace that honours your nervous system, your readiness, and what feels appropriate for you.

    This is also one of the reasons I offer a Pre-Session Consultation. It gives us an opportunity to connect beforehand, discuss any questions or concerns you may have, and ensure you feel comfortable and supported your healing takes place. 

  • Yes.

    Remote sessions are available worldwide and can be just as powerful as in-person healings.

    The primary difference is that during an in-person session I am also able to work directly with on your physical body through hands-on healing and somatic techniques.

    For remote sessions, you do not need to be lying down, meditating, or doing anything specific while the healing is taking place. You may be asleep or going about your day. I simply notify you when the session will be commencing and then send you detailed voice messages of your session to listen to in your own time.

  • Every woman and every journey is unique.

    Many women experience profound shifts from a single session, while others choose to work with me more regularly for deeper healing, support, and integration.

    My intention is not to create dependency, but to help you reconnect with your own self-trust, intuition, personal power, and capacity to create lasting change within your life.

    Some women choose to book sessions as needed throughout the year, while others feel called into a more immersive container such as Transformation, where ongoing support, accountability, and guidance allow us to work with deeper patterns as they arise.

    If you are unsure what level of support is right for you, we can discuss this during your consultation.

  • As your awareness deepens and shifts begin to occur, it is really common for new insights, emotions, perspectives, and opportunities for growth to continue emerging in the days and weeks that follow. As these changes begin to unfold in real time, support can play an integral role in helping you understand, navigate, and integrate what has shifted and what continues to unfold within your life after the session.

    For this reason, all offerings include personalised integration support designed to help you understand, embody, and sustain the changes unfolding within your life.

    Depending on the offering, this may include follow-up calls, personalised guidance, practices, resources, meditations, and practical integration support. Together, these tools help bridge the gap between insight and embodiment, allowing tangible change to become integrated into your everyday life.

  • Yes.

    Flexible payment plans are available for all offerings and can be tailored to suit your individual circumstances.

    Payments may be spread across an agreed timeframe in advance of your session or programme commencing. However, all healing sessions and programmes must be paid in full prior to commencement.

    If you would like to discuss payment options, please feel free to raise this during your consultation.

  • Absolutely.

    The Transformation journey is available to women worldwide and can be completed entirely remotely. You do not need to travel to New Zealand in order to participate or experience profound healing and transformation.

    Because Transformation is my most intimate and personalised offering, only a select number of women are accepted each year. This ensures every woman receives the depth of support, guidance, accountability, and personalised investment that this journey is designed to provide.

    Whether you are located in New Zealand or elsewhere in the world, you will receive the same level of care, support, mentorship, healing, and integration throughout the six-month experience.

    If you are considering Transformation and would like to explore whether it is the right fit for you, I invite you to book a Pre-Session Consultation.

  • The best place to start is by booking a Pre-Session Consultation.

    This dedicated 45-minute call gives us an opportunity to explore where you are, what you are seeking support with, and which offering is most aligned with your needs, intentions, and desired level of support.

    It is also an opportunity to ask any questions you may have before moving forward.
