Claudia
Hello, I’m Claudia - a channelled writer, energy healer and yoga teacher.
My journey into this work began early in life, though the first major turning point came after experiencing encephalitis in 2017. Rebuilding from that experience gifted me with a deeper gratitude and a reminder of life’s sacredness.
Through a combination of practical and mystical modalities, I hold space to gently guide you back to your inner power, wisdom, strength and soul alignment.
Each session weaves together energy healing (reiki) and a written channelled reading, offering both energetic release and guidance.
This session is for you if you feel a pull to:
-seek clarity or guidance
-relax, soften and release what no longer serves you
-feel less overwhelmed, stuck, drained or pulled in different directions (whether you’re holding your own energy or others)
-step back into your power and reconnect with soul alignment - coming home to self
-receive a gentle energetic clearing and reset in a supportive, sacred space.
Claudia offers appointments at The Healing Garden on Mondays.
