My Story

My own healing process

In my experience, we all have trauma. It's just a matter of how much, and when the effects of that trauma manifest themselves in our lives.

I was fortunate enough to grow up in a home where Eastern practices were an integral part of my upbringing. My grandmother taught me the Ayurvedic way of wellbeing and my father ensured yoga was a central part of our lives. But when I left home and started working full-time, I began to lose myself—and in turn, my health suffered. I felt like I'd reached a breaking point, and knew there had to be another way.

The answer was both simple and complex: it was time for me to return to those Eastern practices with a new appreciation for the healing powers they could hold for body, mind, and spirit - but with the Western skills I had learnt over the last 20 years.

And so I created holistic but concrete steps to heal myself mentally and physically, and now use this plan to support my clients’ journeys.

  • Alpa is a certified practitioner of RTT®, a therapeutic approach that uses powerful, evidence-based techniques to provide people with the tools they need to make positive changes.

    The roots of RTT® are drawn from within areas of traditional psychotherapy such as gestalt, solution-focused and cognitive behavioural therapy, hypnotherapy and mindfulness.

    Its personalized approach works with clients to help them reframe any negative beliefs, values, habits and emotions – many of which they have carried with them since childhood.

    Unlike traditional hypnotherapy, RTT® does not rely solely on positive reinforcement. RTT® goes beyond this and focuses on identifying how, where and when unhelpful beliefs and behaviours were formed. It then utilizes the leading scientific principles of neuroplasticity to enable the creation of new neural pathways in the mind.
