Davies has over a decade of broad training in the healing arts, including a few years of wide-ranging study at the legendary Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California. Her focus is in supporting and freeing the life energy.
This can lead to profound benefits for health and creativity, for flourishing people, teams, and grounded, astute leadership.
In 2023, she completed four years training in Bioenergetic Psychotherapy—an integrated body + mind therapy which has its foundations in the work of Wilhelm Reich and Alexander Lowen. She currently practices as a Bioenergetic Therapist in Training, with full qualification expected in 2026.
In 2016, she trained in hypnotherapy at Rochelle Jaffe’s mindfulness-based school in Ashland, Oregon, and practices in Aotearoa under an American Council of Hypnotist Examiners certification. She supplements her training with ongoing study of tikanga, meditation, yoga and neuroscience. And is supported by regular, clinical psychotherapeutic supervision in Bioenergetics.
Before all this, Davies worked as a film maker and writer for a couple of decades in Aotearoa, winning prizes for her documentaries, music videos, commercials and short films.
The depth, richness and diversity of Davies' experience allows her to offer a wealth of practical support to her clients, along with a genuine kindness and sense of humour.
