With over a decade of experience, she integrates traditional psychological therapies with somatic practices, emphasizing the profound connection between mind and body in the healing process. Rebecca's therapeutic approach is both intuitive and spiritual, creating a calm, meditative environment where clients can explore their inner selves without fear or judgment. She employs Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), breathwork, and other somatic techniques to assist women in processing trauma, releasing unhelpful beliefs, and alleviating toxic shame. Her dedication to shadow work and addressing toxic shame underscores her commitment to guiding clients toward self-acceptance and empowerment. In addition to her psychological practice, Rebecca has expanded her expertise through specialised training in breathwork. She studied under renowned breathwork practitioner and educator Robyn Fernance at Inner Connection, Newcastle's centre for Rebirthing Breathwork and Kinesiology. This training deepened her understanding of the body's role in storing and releasing trauma, enhancing her ability to facilitate holistic healing experiences for her clients. Rebecca's practice, Women's Psychology and Breathwork, reflects her integrative approach. She combines evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and motivational interviewing with somatic modalities to address complex trauma. Her focus on creating a safe and supportive environment allows clients to reconnect with their inner healer and trust their innate capacity for recovery. As an associate member of the Australian Breathwork Association, Rebecca remains committed to professional development and adherence to industry standards. Her holistic and client-centered approach continues to inspire and facilitate profound transformations in the lives of the women she supports. Read more
