In 2013 I discovered and began studying the amazing benefits of hypnosis and from there, became a Master Practitioner of Hypnotherapy and practitioner in various other complementary and therapeutic treatment modalities. I discovered how these therapies can help so many people, from children to seniors, giving them the confidence to make long-term changes in their lives.
In 2017 I opened my own mobile practice around the Kalamunda and Baldivis areas in Perth. In 2020 I opened an office in Kalamunda. Clients can now book all appointments for my practice at the Kalamunda Wellness Centre.
Over the years my passion has grown stronger and stronger. I’ve become a Master Practitioner of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), Master Practitioner of Hypnotherapy, Practitioner of Conversational Hypnotherapy, IBS Hypnosis Certification, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), Sacred Ancestral Clearing and DNA Healing, and Angel Babies all while consistently upgrading my NLP Coaching Certification, Time Line Therapy Certification and IBS Gut Directed Hypnosis Certification.
Continuously upgrading and learning new techniques gives me the skills to be an adaptive therapist, to work with individuals or within marital and family dynamics. I can help my clients find freedom from a wide range of problems by connecting to the client’s subconscious mind with their own positive words and suggestions.
A story of self-discovery and a journey of self-appreciation through what, in past times, seemed like hopelessness. I was born in a small country town in Victoria and by no means was my family home a healthy environment. Parents hating each other, domestic violence, sexual abuse, alcoholism and the list goes on. My parents, myself and three siblings were split up when I was ten years old. I was put in a juvenile detention centre at the age of 15, married at 17, and separated and divorced by 19. I was on a road of destruction. I became a single mother by 20 and I then knew I had to get out of the toxic environment I had put myself in. I had to be something better. So, I packed my daughter and myself and moved interstate. A few years later I met my second husband and had two more children. I loved being a mum and wife but I struggled deeply with unresolved past trauma. This impacted my ability to parent well. I didn’t know how to be a good parent at the time following old patterns passed down by my own dysfunctional parents. Reflecting on this experience with grace, forgiveness and love has been a crucial learning curve in my life.
After 20 years I divorced again. That is when my journey accelerated. A journey to find me, my true self. Not someone’s peer, wife, mother or sister… but who is Sonja!? For the next 10 years, I learned to love and like myself and enjoy the quirky sense of humour that I had, once upon a time, hidden away. I could finally be a good friend to others because I was being a good friend to myself. I learned to be a more supportive and consistent parent to my children.
There was a lot of trial and error, ups and downs, tears and laughter during this time and just as I was thinking life is good, mum passed away and it brought up a lot of emotion. A few short years after, my little brother passed away in a car accident. Still, the universe didn’t think I had learned enough and gave me something which would shake me to the core. In 2010, my son died at the age of 28 from alcohol and a drug overdose. At this time, my ex-husband was in America, my eldest daughter was living interstate and my youngest daughter was up North doing FIFO. I had to tell them their son and brother had died through drugs and alcohol. This was the biggest lesson the universe was going to teach me. How do you survive something like this? How do you get over something like this? Where do you start? Grief and guilt can be overwhelming. Why didn’t I help him more? Why wasn’t I a better mother? I should have been there at his most difficult times? Why… Why… Why...
After a while, the answers started to come to me. I loved him, he loved me in our own special way. I did the best I could with the knowledge I had and that is OK. Grow from this. Learn from this. Accept this. For me, nothing is worse than losing my child. So now, there is nothing I cannot overcome. I have been through the worst, survived and thrived.
Everyone has a story. The good, the bad and the ugly. I am here to help, to laugh together and to cry together (I have lots of tissues). I offer clarity, trust, support and assistance. I bring life experiences and knowledge through my learning to help my clients have a safe journey to healing themselves, find their inner strength, to thrive moving forward and live a life they love.
