Gene's Journey: Navigating the Path to Healing
Gene's exploration of holistic medicine began with her struggles with mental health. Her battles transformed into a healing journey, guiding her to integrate deep wounds through holistic practices. These experiences serve as a guiding compass in her work, infused with empathy, compassion, and a profound understanding of the interconnectedness of health.
Specialising in women's health and fertility for over a year, Gene has discovered a profound calling in this topic, with expertise extending to mental health, body positivity, self-esteem, self-love, and the connection to sensuality and sexuality. Gene's pursuit of a career in the holistic world originated from her teenage years, where conventional medicine provided support during challenging periods but left a desire for more profound healing. Embracing the holistic world, Gene encountered practitioners who unlocked a world of self-growth, self-healing, and self-love. Reiki appointments became integral to her self-care routine, and seizing the opportunity to learn it herself marked the beginning of a passion that originated as an inner healing journey.
Holistic Healing: The Power of Reiki and Counselling
Gene's holistic approach seamlessly integrates traditional counselling techniques with the gentle yet powerful practice of Reiki, creating a nurturing environment for healing and self-discovery. This unique combination, rooted in client-centred care, sets the stage for transformative journeys for our clients.
Understanding that every person has their own complex life, stories, needs, and beliefs, Gene takes the time to genuinely connect with each individual who sits in session with her. Client-centred care is the cornerstone of her practice, allowing flexibility in sessions to tailor them to each client's specific needs on any given day. Each session is unique; some days, clients may need to talk and connect more before engaging in Reiki.
During Reiki sessions, Gene intuitively identifies areas in the body where energy isn't flowing optimally, actively working to remove blockages. Beyond surface-level healing, she integrates traditional counselling techniques to delve into the root causes of these blockages. Collaborating with clients, Gene seeks to understand why certain issues manifest in the energetical body, providing a comprehensive and holistic approach. Together, they explore tools and techniques for ongoing support between sessions. They actively develop personalised goals and plans for each individual's unique healing journey. This integrative and client-focused method ensures a thorough and personalised healing experience beyond the Reiki session.
Reflecting on her lowest points with mental health, Gene acknowledges the profound impact of having supportive individuals who genuinely listened and held space for her vulnerability. This invaluable lesson has been woven into her practice, where non-judgment and emotional safety are essential. Gene's practice radiates empathy, understanding, relatability, and hope, creating a space where clients can show up authentically and embark on their transformative healing journeys.

Reiki: Tapping into the Essence of Life Force Energy
At the heart of Gene's holistic practice lies Reiki, a sacred form of energy healing with roots in Japan. Embracing the concept of "life force energy," this universal essence, known as "ki" in Japanese, "chi" in Chinese, or "prana" in Sanskrit, is believed to flow through every living being.
Gene, like other Reiki practitioners, understands that disruptions in this energy flow within an individual can lead to physical, emotional, or spiritual imbalances, resulting in illness or discomfort. Gene channels this energy through her Reiki practice, directing it to where needed within the client's energy field. Using gentle hand placements on or near the body, Gene facilitates the flow of energy, helping remove blockages and restore balance.
Gene's specialisation in women's health and fertility is deeply rooted in her observations of societal dynamics, particularly in how Western culture operates within a rigid 24-hour cycle often referred to as the 'male cycle.' Recognising that women frequently suppress their natural rhythms to fit into systems misaligned with their innate cycles, Gene felt a calling to support them in reclaiming strength, empowerment, and ease of daily challenges. Her interest in fertility, a relatively new focus, emerged about a year ago, driven by the profound ability to nurture and cultivate life within one's own body. Gene finds immense fulfilment in guiding women through their fertility journeys, supporting them during pregnancy, and aiding in postpartum experiences. She believes in the magical quality of the collective strength of women, emphasising that within this sisterhood, there is immense potential for healing, support, and mutual upliftment, fostering growth and empowerment.
