Frequently Asked Questions
How much/long is a session?
Shamanic Healing sessions are 1.5hrs long and the fee per is $200 per session.
How do I prepare?
Give some thought to what you’d like to get out of the session (e.g. i want to feel peaceful, i need to forgive x , etc.)
Ideally, avoid alcohol and red meat for 3 days prior to the session.
How will I feel after the session?
It varies and it depends on what you’re presenting with. Typically, most people feel relieved when they let go of the dense energy they came to release. However, this is a healing process and the work can release pent up emotions. I’ll talk to you more during the session about good after care practices.
What do i need to do after the session?
That depends on your unique situation. Ideally, make sure you’ll have time to process your experience. Avoid busy or loud environments for a day or two and take some time in nature if possible.
How many sessions do I need?
For most clients, I recommend 3 sessions about 3-4 weeks apart. This allows processing on your part and stabilisation of your energy so that we can continue the work on a firm foundation. This approach has been very successful and gives a more rounded outcome as we work with several modalities and techniques to clear the problem at multiple levels. After the 3rd session, you can come back whenever you wish to address other concerns.
I don’t know which service to book. How do I select the session I need?
For shamanic healing : You don’t need to select the service. The type of service provided is determined during our discussion at the start of the session. Advanced practices such as soul or destiny retrieval require at least 2 or 3 extraction sessions to ensure there’s enough space in your system to hold and properly integrate that energy.
Where are you located?
The practice is located at my home in Chelsea. The address and access details will be provided upon making a booking. There’s ample street parking, or you’d be welcome to park in my driveway. My home is around a 10 min walk from the Chelsea train station.
Do you offer discounted rates for pensioners, unemployed persons or students?
Yes, this is done on an as needed basis and after discussion. Please submit a query through the online form and we’ll get back to you.

Do you have Online sessions?
Yes, if you’re interstate or living out of Melbourne i can see you over Googlemeets. The session duration and Price are still the same. You can select this option during the booking process.
What happens during the session?
The session starts with a brief chat to get an idea about your circumstances, how you’re feeling and what you’d like to address. I’ll then explain how shamanic healing works and how it relates/differs to the Western Medical/Psychological framework. We then move to the energy work where you’ll be lying down and getting into your experience. After that part, we’ll have a chat to discuss any questions you have or insights you may have had during the session. We’ll end the session with a discussion of any after care practices that would assist you with integrating the work.
Do online healing sessions work?
The work is unaffected by your or my location, or indeed proximity to one another. The only advantage of face to face is to engage the conscious mind sufficiently for it to step out of the way and allow the healing to occur. The incense, entry into a different space, lighting, music contribute to this effect of softening the conscious resistances.
Healing is ultimately about transcending time and space and working with the soul energy, which is not bound by either.
You’d need to be in a quiet space where you have a place lie down for a portion of the session. Other than, wi-fi or good data reception would be recommended to avoid interruptions during the session.
I need a Soul Retrieval and I need it NOW!
Soul retrieval is a delicate art and in my experience it is best approached when there is sufficient space in your system to hold the retrieved soul energy. The experience of feeling that you’ve “lost yourself” is interpreted shamanically as having lost a part of your power or soul. That is what soul retrieval is about: bringing that part of you back so you can feel whole again.
Rest assured that if you’re on planet Earth, you have a soul!
In order for soul retrieval to be effective, between 3-4 clearing sessions (1 month between sessions) are required prior to the soul retrieval session. These sessions often focus on clearing dense and stuck energies in the lower 3 chakras where we typically store imprints of trauma.
It’s a little like deleting old corrupt files from your hard drive so you can download something new in their place. These old “files” are the mechanisms we use in lieu of the soul part or power. They also include all manner of secondary traumas and difficulties based on the initial traumatic event that caused the soul part to leave in the first place.
If soul retrieval is done too soon (i.e. the old corrupt files are not deleted first), then it may not hold. Have you ever tried downloading a movie on a full hard drive?
Occasionally, the soul power will stay, even in the midst of all the old mechanisms. But that will create strong cognitive dissonance and make the post session integration experience extremely difficult. With more than 10 years of experience in this modality, I’ve found the methodical and pragmatic “step by step” approach to be the most successful.
