As an experienced social worker, Certified Havening Techniques® practitioner, and trainer based in the Macedon Ranges, Victoria, Australia, I bring over 20 years of therapeutic expertise to my practice.

I’ve had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, and adults who have encountered challenging life experiences impacting their ability to live fully. My focus is on helping clients process trauma, release stagnant emotions, overcome personal blocks, and navigate through change. I also support people in discovering their inner strengths and resources, empowering them to achieve their goals.

By integrating Havening techniques, mindfulness, and other therapeutic modalities, I help clients find relief and growth. My background in yoga, neuroscience, and the nervous system enhances my ability to guide clients in regulating their emotions and reactions.

I pride myself on creating a warm, compassionate environment where clients feel safe, supported, and empowered to transition from past difficulties to a more fulfilling present.

I offer both online and in-person sessions.

The gift of Havening


In 1988, the seventeen-year-old, animal loving version of me, witnessed a traumatic event involving a puppy. In this situation, due to multiple factors, I was unable to help the puppy to the full extent that I’d easily be able to now. The event and the aftermath, my limited choices at the time and the memories of this have quite literally haunted me for thirty-six years. I have been wracked with guilt, sadness, remorse, anger regularly. The memories would flood my brain at any given time, sometimes with no warning and each time I remembered, I’d feel as I did right back at the scene, with compound interest. The last time this happened, I felt I needed help somehow to either dampen down my memories and the visceral feelings attached to it, or to face the fact that this was going to be a feature of my entire life – that thought left me feeling quite desperate. Priya suggested that Havening could help me, and I was very eager to try. We set up a video call appointment as I am based in Wales. I was slightly nervous, more about crying buckets over the memory, but the overarching feeling was one of hope. Priya very gently set the context in which we’d work and made sure that I knew what to do and when. The next 45 minutes were a mix of feeling great release, relief, puzzlement, some sadness and tears, some hysterical laughter and finally a sense of calm and stillness. Priya guided and checked in with me regularly during the process, I felt in completely safe and professional hands in my moments of vulnerability. It’s now several weeks since my session and I can truthfully state that my feelings associated to this memory have completely dulled, I feel no trauma …and the memory itself is as though the colour has gone out of it and it’s a literal shadow of its former self. I feel that confident in this process , that I am now looking to complete training myself. Thank you so much Priya, you’ve no idea what a huge gift you’ve given me.

Havening Training

Priya is a warm, friendly and natural teacher, she creates a positive and dynamic learning environment with resourceful flair and humour. It's clear that Priya is a highly skilled Havening Techniques practitioner, as this shines through in her passion for the subject through her creative teaching methods.
Priya made my learning experience both enjoyable and engaging. Each new subject was like a fresh adventure with her innate ability to make the class engaging, this was a joy and a highlight. Her enthusiasm for Havening is palpable and infectious, whilst managing to make even the complex cellular chemistry and final rules and regulations 'dry' section a breeze, adding her own examples from her practitioner experiences to explain concepts in easily digested and understandable ways.
I would warmly recommend Priya as a Havening Techniques teacher.
