My approach
SAFE SPACE
Whether we are working in-person or online, our space together is always safe because I'm listening and I care. You decide how much and when you want to share. This space is yours.
My approach may feel different than others you've tried. Instead of questioning yourself, my goal is for you to learn how to back yourself. I believe you, I don't think you're making anything up, I don't think you're being "too much", I think how you feel is reasonable.
NEEDS METHOD
Why have you struggled to just STOP a protective mode (e.g. perfectionism, procrastination, anger)? Because that mode was trying to get a need met for you.
In learning to meet that need in a different, more effective way, the mode starts to dial down naturally.
This is the Needs Method. It's the missing piece. Together, we will uncover your protective modes, identify what unmet needs they're indicating and then actually get your needs met.
COUPLES SESSION
I LOVE working with couples. Here, you'll learn how to repair any ruptures in the relationship.
We'll also apply the Needs Method to this couple setting by refocusing individual efforts so that each person actually FEELS loved. This is about understanding each other's needs and meeting them through simple, consistent ways.
Couple work is doable, worthwhile and, dare I say, fun!

FAQs
How long does it typically take to see results from Meditation Therapy?
Most people feel relaxed and calm after one session; however, they start to notice consistent improvements in stress, mood, and overall well-being after 3-4 sessions together.
Here's the thing: my goal is to help you navigate your challenges so that you can do it by yourself.
I wouldn't be a good practitioner if you needed to come back to me every time you had an issue. In my opinion, I've done a good job if you feel comfortable and confident in regulating your own emotions and navigating your needs independently. That's what we work towards.
What are the benefits of Meditation Therapy for mental health and overall well-being?
The benefits of Meditation Therapy are numerous and well-documented. Research shows it can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression symptoms, enhance emotional regulation, improve attention and concentration, promote better sleep, and increase feelings of overall happiness and well-being. Additionally, Meditation Therapy can help individuals cultivate greater self-awareness, develop healthier protective mechanisms, and build resilience to life's challenges.
What are the costs associated with Meditation Therapy?
A single session is $150 AUD (approximately $100 USD) .
If you're an existing client, you can bundle 3 sessions and receive 20% off!
If you are a business or sole trader you can claim our sessions as expenses.
How do you tailor Meditation Therapy sessions to meet the individual needs of clients?
I customise each session to suit the individual needs and aspirations of my clients. Your healing is self-directed. You can pick from a range of techniques, including guided meditation, body scans, breathwork, and somatics, to regulate your nervous system. You are in the driver's seat when it comes to what you want to focus on in our sessions in regard to topics, challenges or concerns. If you choose, I can integrate elements of evidence-based approaches to help you identify protective modes that have become maladaptive. By providing a nurturing and safe space, I hope to empower you to explore your inner landscape, nurture self-compassion, and develop effective strategies for coping with stress, anxiety, and other well-being challenges.
Are our sessions confidential?
Our sessions are confidential unless I believe there's a risk of harm to you or another individual. Cultivating safety for you is my number one priority.
Hi, I’m Epiphany.
Honestly, my needs used to baffle me.
I always pushed myself past my limits. I worked long hours, said yes to everything, and endlessly prioritised other people's needs over my own. Eventually, after working as a documentary director and travelling to 30 countries in one year, with 17-hour workdays, I burnt out. It was finally time for me to get serious about my well-being.
I went from experiencing relentless anxiety, depression, fatigue, chronic pain, and having a consistently activated fight-or-flight response to regulating my nervous system. By implementing a unique model of care that focused on identifying my needs and getting them met effectively, I detangled my thoughts, feelings and protective behaviours. Eventually, my feet found the earth again.
Cut to 10 years later, of course, life ebbs and flows, but for the most part, I feel well, strong and joyful. No more depression, no more relentless anxiety and no more chronic pain. My whole life has changed for the better.
In addition to my history as a Documentary Director, Guinness World Record holder, an Australian Directors Guild award winner, a Voice-Over Artist, and the Co-Creator of the mental health app Onlyhuman, I have a diploma in Meditation Therapy. Blending elements of holistic counselling, life coaching and, of course, meditation.
Using my unique Needs Method, I've worked with thousands of people. Through different workshops, courses, and one-on-one sessions. I'm excited to work with you, too! Together, we'll identify your needs and actually get them met.
I’m here to walk through it with you.
