What helped me the most with my sessions with Barb was being able to confront very sad events in my life in a safe environment with a very empathetic and understanding and non-judgmental practitioner. Feeling safe was very important to me.

The biggest change in my life is that I have been able to ‘let things go’.  I would definitely recommend Barb.  Being able to identify events in your life which have impacted negatively on you, working through them and then deal with them in a safe environment and then given the tools to heal has been an immense gift and one I know I will draw on in the future.

Sarah Manning, Auckland, New Zealand

Barb’s openness and ability to be neutral was one of the things that helped me the most.  I was able to understand more about my childhood and what memories I had held onto that were causing me grief, which allowed me to better understand myself and heal. I do recommend Barb.

Mary Duncan, Whangamata, New Zealand

Barb gave me a safe space to be honest with myself and allow emotions to pass through without my own mind getting in the way and trying to stop them, allowing me to release internal stress and pressures.  The release of these emotions has opened up space for my creativity, personal direction and purpose to unfold and become clear, which has been the biggest positive impact.  Finding direction and purpose in my life going forward, and also to my past and understanding why my experiences have all been necessary to get me to where I am now.

Everything has changed in my life since having sessions with Barb!  My perspective on myself, my habits, my characteristics that contribute to a lot of my current frustrations – the changes in my relationships with my family, and my understanding of my past.  It’s made a huge positive impact on my struggles with mental health and anxiety, and understanding trauma, growing self-love and encouraging self-forgiveness.

I’ve recommended Barb to family and friends.  When I see situations in other people that I have personally experienced, and then healed through EFT, and these other people can’t seem to find the right ‘fix’.  EFT is the one practice that has regularly been a success and the longest commitment I’ve been able to stick too in my ‘health’ journey.

Angevahn, New Zealand

I am so grateful for the work I’ve done with you means I’m out of my usual environment and no anxiety and staying fully present.  You were the right and the timing was great.

My blood pressure has dropped each week – something which had not happened for 3-4 worrying months.  I have extremely low levels of anxiety and am responding in new ways – like letting go of challenges more easily, not over thinking situations, looking for win-win solutions rather than being strongly invested in “my way”

I feel extremely grateful for the changes, for the expansion of my safe operating zone, for new confidence and peacefulness.  I’m also very pleased I made the investment of multiple sessions. 

Barb was respectful of my worldview – particularly important to me as this signals being heard, being respected, and consequently feeling safe – though I think this need for safety has shifted LOL.

Faith, Singapore

I was facing the loss of my dear dog and had difficulty dealing with the well of emotions that I was facing. My emotions were raw and having much effects on the way I was handling my daily duties and interactions with others.

Barbara is professional and amazing. She is empathetic, and able to put me at ease during the sessions. I was feeling that someone was willing to work and facilitate me towards my own healing and growth. My dear dog was almost like a family member, and having to make the choices for him nearer the end of his life was too much for me to bear. Having to deal with them after he was gone make it even harder.  Barbara was able to help me deal with the emotions that I was having, and help me gained new insights to the struggles that I had.  I was able to work out a grief process which works for me, and construct positive images and memories of my dog. It has been 1.5 months after my dog has passed and I am glad that Barbara was the practitioner which I had worked with. I am now able to move forward in my life more positively and remembering my dear dog in a dear and beautiful way.

It is your capacity to travel so deeply and accurately with me intuiting where I need to go, what I’ve not seen yet.  Your total acceptance, encouragement, lack of judgement and ability to go anywhere at all and sense the best way to do it and reveal what’s hidden to me. I would totally recommend you and do. I could not possibly recommend you more highly.

You have changed my life and it keeps happening. I function with more ease, stand up for myself more a lot of the time, feel better about myself.  You have given me something I’ve never had, unfailing support and real trust in another human.  

I’ve come to terms with a great majority of my life’s tragedies which I’d not been able to, and have forgiven myself with more understanding than I would ever have found without you. 

I’m infinitely happier than I was, not the walking wounded.  And  ALL the relationships in my life-past and present have improved hugely, and how I am in them. No doubt from now on, the future too will be different Thank you

I have recently had EFT sessions with Barb to work through a traumatic memory. Even though I’m a long-time tapper, I need others to help me work through the “biggies”.

I have recently had EFT sessions with Barb to work through a traumatic memory. Even though I’m a long-time tapper, I need others to help me work through the “biggies”.

Barb was an amazing practitioner! She asked GREAT questions to help me tune in to the issue at hand, she was thorough and made sure we didn’t miss even a tiny detail. She helped me relate this one memory to other significant events in my life that had created some beliefs for me that were not helpful to carry around as an adult anymore.

Barb handled the sensitive topic with beautiful kindness, sensitivity and professionalism. I LOVED how she was able to “get” me without me having to explain everything in detail. She was right there, with me, all the time, helping me to feel safe and loved. She’s intuitive, gentle, very thorough and made sure I knew what to do after the session to get the most out of our work together.

The memory is now “distant” and I’m taking a beautiful, empowering new learning with me into the future. Barb comes very highly recommended.

Jocelyn, Auckland, New Zealand

Barb was awesome to work with. She helped me break things down and think about my situation in smaller bits. She listened to what I had to say and worked at my pace. Even when more things popped up for me, she helped me get through them. She always had suggestions for whatever popped up for me.

E.J., Melbourne, Australia

Barbara has a rare ability to walk beside you in a session.  I found her to be gentle, caring and loving.  If you want to find clarity in your life, then a session with Barbara is the way to go.  Thanks Barbara.
