About Me

My spiritual journey began at a young age. I was a curious child and drawn to all things mystical. I could ‘read’ people and over the years, this gift has grown stronger. A trained teacher, my journey into healing therapy started in 2008 when I participated in a Heal your life workshop in Johannesburg. This was followed by several years of study of traditional Usui reiki leading to a master practitioner, Karuna reiki, ESP, pyramid and angel healing, Quantum touch healing and theta healing master practitioner. I am also a certified CBT life coach and strategic hypnotherapist.

​

It has been an amazing journey of self-growth and being part of the life journey of some wonderful brave people. I have had the good fortune of living in different countries, learning from some remarkable teachers and working with people across different cultures and traditions. Healing occurs in many ways, For some its physical and for others on an emotional or spiritual level. I have had the privilege of assisting people with various issues in their choice of healing modality.

Education and Certifications

I learnt Reiki from Mrs Sukirta Chopra based in Gurgaon India and Theta healing from Mark Anthony in Australia. I completed my certificate and diploma in clinical hypnosis and strategic psychotherapy and NLP from IAP Australia under the tutelage of Gordon Young who is very well known in this field and commands a global reputation. His trademarked model of strategic psychotherapy is unique and has shown to deliver long-lasting results.

I am also a certified CBT life coach and mindfulness practitioner and have completed CBT courses from Beck Institute, positive psychiatry and mental health course and a counselling course from the University of Sydney. 

I am also certified by the Australian Hypnotherapists Association (AHA)

Techniques Used

Hypnotherapy - is a clinically proven safe and effective form of therapy which promotes deep relaxation and then helps you to alter your mindset to better manage your life. Many of our behaviours are the result of unconscious conditioning and we help you find alternate more effective ways.

 

Modern strategic hypnosis is an advanced form of hypnosis available today. Whilst most form of hypnosis are little more than relaxation techniques or simple directives, strategic hypnosis, based on the Gordian pillars of psychotherapy, tackles the underpinning cognitive patterns that make and sustain the issues. You are always in complete control. Do read the FAQ section about the myths of hypnosis.

​

Strategic psychotherapy - looks at patterns of behaviour that have kept you stuck.

​

I look at where you are and where you hope to be. Together we can create an effective treatment plan that fosters a positive result. Since our thoughts and perceptions shape our reality, cognitive and neuroscience techniques can be used to transform our lives. Controlling our inner state of self helps bring balance.

​

Energy Healing - the practitioner channels the life force energy or Chi and directs it to the recipient with or without physical contact with the body. The goal is to balance the energy flow in the recipient to promote healing and well being.

More than just a session

 

As your therapist, Dev isn't just holding you in mind while you are in front of her. Hours are spent researching topics related to your case, making notes, and planning treatments outside of sessions. You are on her mind in between sessions. She consults her colleagues to ensure you are being provided with the best treatment. It's more than just 1 hour!
