Therapy
A Journey of Self-Discovery and Personal Empowerment
Inside each of us is the wisdom and ability to create positive change but often we are held back by attitudes and beliefs that diminish our self esteem, block our creativity, and limit our potential and resourcefulness. Fortunately we never lose the ability to help ourselves - no matter how stuck we may feel!
When you choose to invest in yourself - to tune into the power of your mind and utilise your body’s own intrinsic ability to heal and maintain itself - you support yourself to live any ordinary day more vividly, true to yourself and to your full potential, free from the conditioned barriers and blockages that create the feeling of stuckness. You can choose to understand and integrate your experiences from a deeper perspective and become a refined, more real and upgraded version of yourself.

Transform your life
Step into your potential

Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a mind-body medicine that uses a deep state of relaxation and focussed attention, enabling to access your minds own healing ability.
It is a therapeutic approach that utilises hypnosis to access the subconscious mind and promote positive changes in thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
During a hypnotherapy session, you are guided into a relaxed state of heightened focus and suggestibility, known as a trance. In this state, the subconscious mind becomes more open to change and can be directed towards addressing specific concerns or goals. Contrary to common misconceptions, individuals under hypnosis are not in a state of deep sleep, they maintain full control over their actions and cannot be forced to do anything against their will.
Hypnotherapy aims to tap into the inner resources of the mind to facilitate personal growth, self-discovery, and the resolution of psychological and behavioural challenges. Some examples include:
Habits and Addictions:
Smoking | Drugs | Alchohol
Nail biting | Stuttering
Anxious behaviours
OCD
Situational Issues:
Confidence | Nervousness
Public speaking
Fear | Phobia's | Anxiety
Birth preparation
Chronic Conditions:
Depression | Insomnia
Stress | Panic Attacks
Guilt | Insecurity | Anger
Weight loss

Coaching
Coaching is weaved through all of my work to get you moving powerfully forward. Whilst coaching is not therapy, I use a psycho-dynamic and existential approach to coaching.
Coaching is about getting you to reach your potential, bringing flow into your life and becoming the best version of yourself; fully embodied, thriving and alive! In the process, you learn to understand yourself better, get into the drivers seat to navigate your own life, and move toward achieving your dreams, goals and desires - whether as a leader of your own life, in your business or in other areas of life.
Through coaching I help you to unearth your latent talents and hidden gifts, discover the power and presence of who you really are, develop a deeper connection with your inner guidance system and support you to walk your path with conviction.
Examples of some areas of coaching that I work with:
Personal Leadership
Live into potential and create a life of flow
Understand yourself better, your values, your life choices
Develop a positive mindset to awaken possibilities
Become more focused and set the right goals that work for you
Beat procrastination and establish good habits
Become more productive, resourceful and purposeful
Improve performance and enhance your skills
Develop emotional intelligence
Deal with interpersonal dynamics and conflicts
“Coaches are shamans of the 21st Century” - Guthrie Sayan
Professionally certified as a senior coach practitioner and coach supervisor with the European Mentoring and Coaching Council, I bring a wealth of therapeutic and healing practices together with transformative coaching to form an integral part of the work we do together; whether it's a stand-alone coaching programme or part of a broader healing or therapeutic journey. I also bring a diversity of transpersonal and spiritual awareness from my work in cross-cultural settings and healing spaces to craft and tailor each session creatively.

“Runa has taken me from a scared, worried and anxious person to someone who has tools to deal with conflict, speak up and address concerns. She is trustworthy, warm, experienced and skilled. She has the ability to listen and give practical guidance for growth. She understands complex situations and dynamics very quickly and easily. Runa was not afraid to ask the BIG questions. I could not have asked for a better coach to trust with my personal thoughts and fears."
