Hi, I’m Kia. My work is informed by decades of meditation, embodied healing practices, creativity, sensitivity and lived experience.

I’m a mum in my 40s, an artist, Steiner early childhood educator, nature lover, massage and Somatic Lightwork therapist.

Quite early on in my adult life, I stepped away from the path I was supposed to follow, and I’ve been softly crafting a handmade life ever since. It hasn’t always been perfect. Sometimes it’s been messy, but it’s been beautiful, and I wouldn’t change it for the world.

I’ve walked through strange, sensitive and transformative experiences too, and part of why I do this work is so others feel less alone in theirs.

My AuDHD mind loves to hyperfocus, obsess, study and learn a variety of changing things deeply in its own unconventional way, and much of my work has grown from that devotion.

I have a bunch of certificates and diplomas and I’ve started university degrees, but honestly, what my grandmother used to say about me feels more relevant: “Kia studies in the university of life.” I think that’s really what has made me most qualified for the work I offer now.

My approach is slow, intuitive and deeply relational — creating gentle spaces for rest, insight, healing and reconnection.

Somatic refers to awareness of the body, especially the nervous system and inner felt sense.

Lightwork refers to esoteric or spiritual healing that works with pure, positive energy.

Together, Somatic Lightwork is body-based energy work that supports the nervous system while gently inviting healing, insight and energetic shift.

Somatic Lightwork can support health, love, fulfilment, clarity, relaxation, abundance and spiritual connection.

People come to sessions for many different reasons, including:

• stress, overwhelm or anxiety

• heartbreak, grief or life transitions

• feeling stuck or disconnected

• recurring emotional or relationship patterns

• burnout or nervous system exhaustion

• creative or spiritual blocks

• support around health or physical tension

• clarity, direction or deeper self-understanding

• a desire to feel calmer, freer and more alive.

What makes this work different is my slow, relational and body-based approach.

Rather than focusing only on talking or technique, the sessions combine nervous system support, meditation, intuitive insight and energetic healing within a calm, restorative space.

The work is gentle, collaborative and grounded - with an emphasis on safety, sensitivity, presence and deep attunement.
