About

A practice held in the body.

Vanessa is a facilitator and energy healer working at the intersection of feminine wisdom, ritual, and folklore.

Vanessa's creation story is a unique one. She was prayed into existence by a pioneering family who used cutting-edge fertility treatment in 1990s Australia — her mother wrote to a magazine, reaching out to a doctor to enrol her in the trial program. Part magic, part science: she credits her tenacity and zest for life to her origin.

The phonetics for her last name can be interpreted as "half-eye," appropriate for one with a lifelong resolve to traverse the lands of the seen and unseen.

Energy Healing

Sessions for what words can't reach.

Slow, attentive work, built from years of tracking bodies, journeying through the underworld and upperworld, and learning when to act and when simply to witness.

Every session begins the same way: presence first, technique second.

Energy Healer Training

For those called to hold humans deeply.

A place to understand and recognise the power of the hands. Using breath and intention, we craft the tools we inherit and the tools we create, to remember the long internal work of becoming someone the body trusts to lead it somewhere unfamiliar.

Vanessa uses 'maps' lent to us in our folklore, to interpret the flight of the soul through seasons, cycles, moments of bliss, grief, and everything in between. Healing is not a far away concept, but a path we travel again and again, with conviction and company.
