I always find that one of the most important things you need to do when you embark on your healing journey, is ensure that you choose a healer that you connect with.
All healers will offer something different and bring a different type of energy into your space. The healer you feel most connected to, will be the right healer for you. Maybe for this time, maybe for a lifetime... if you are here reading this page, you are probably wondering who I am and whether I am the right person for you, so here is a little more about me to help you decide <3
I'm Lara. I'm a Pisces Sun, Aries Moon and Libra Rising. My signs are ultra special to me as they incorporate my mother (Aries) and my grandmother (Libra), who have both played a very significant part in shaping who I am today, and passed down their intuitive healing gifts to me.
Life path number 3, I am forever a child at heart. Something that brings me innate joy in this life is being with the people I love dearly, being silly and laughing. Laughter will forever be my favourite form of therapy, please don't ever forget to give yourself time to laugh. Life can be full of serious stuff, but we have to try and find the time to allow ourselves to find the joy in the little things, it can make the journey so much more manageable.
My favourite food is chicken shish, and my mums spaghetti bolognese - not together of course. I love sleeping (always have and always will), spending time with my family and friends, walking in nature, reading, learning, travelling, meditating and healing - both myself and others.
I don't think I really confirm to the traditional idea of spirituality, and neither does it feel right for me to do so. I believe that there is no set way for us to follow the spiritual path, just a way that is right for us. I like to carry my practise and live my life in a grounded manner, to enjoy being human equally as much as being spiritual, and to accept others in whichever way they choose to live their lives, instead of trying to impose my chosen way of being onto them.
People, and I in fact, would say that my strongest traits are kindness, empathy, adaptability, sensitivity, strong intuition, an open mind, quick thinking and my very loud laugh!
My challenges are that I am very particular with my food (so very sorry if you have been out to eat with me), I am a hermit and I operate at my best when I manage to get one day a week entirely to myself. I am a perfectionist and sometimes this means I stall doing the things I need to do because I am in an internal battle of 'is this good enough', and lastly unloading the dishwasher, oh my goodness I don't know what it is but I just don't have it in me!
Those are my surface level challenges. But how can you know me or connect to me just through that. Of course you cannot. What is important is you know me on a deeper level. To know that what I have been through and over come. I will not spend too long here, because this is not a sob story, more a part of my life that shaped who I am.
My personal challenges were in all honesty, a little more difficult than the above. I am the daughter of a person who struggled with alcohol and emotions. The home was not terrible by any means, but the moods were not stable, anxiety was always present and I spent my younger years on eggshells. Of course, this 90's and we did not talk about emotions then, so everything was bottled up, things got worse and by my early adult years I was fiercely co-dependent, depressed, anxious, angry, empty and hopeless. I tried very hard not to think about or feel these things and spent most of my teens and twenties trying to escape them through alcohol and toxic relationships, we can call it my party girl era, but realistically I was doing anything except facing the realities of my own life!
Things reached a peak during my solar return - classic! I was in another mentally abusive and co-dependent relationship, I had been diagnosed with chronic fatigue (very common for codependents by the way), I was stuck in a dead end job, my relationship with my father had heartbreakingly broken down to the point of us not talking at all and all the feelings I had been desperately trying to block and avoid were spilling out of me so fast I had no choice but to surrender to the pain and try and find a different way of being. It was here in this moment, when I was truly at rock bottom, where I began to come home to myself and where my journey of not only healing myself, but becoming a healer began.
I will never forget the version of me that existed before I began my healing journey. And I choose to honour her and her pain every day - not by allowing it to define who I am in a negative way - but to take all of the learnings and lessons I went through, and use it in a way to help others transform their lives in the way that I did mine.
My healing offerings to you, are the modalities that I feel most passionate about, the ones that helped transform me as I went on the deep journey of unlearning all of my limiting beliefs, releasing the pain and and rebuilding myself into the strong, powerful, loving and accepting woman I am today.
I will not claim to perfect or entirely healed by any means. I am sure that I will continue to grow, heal and develop through my journey in this life, and as I do I will continue to add to and expand my offerings, where it feels right to.
I hope that sharing part of who I am and what I have overcome helps you to feel more connected to me on a deeper level, and understanding of whether you would like to work with me in your own very special healing journey, I would be honoured to be a part of it.
Below are how my offerings helped me - hopefully this will help you decide where to place and use them:
Reiki: My first true love. Reiki had this unexplainable ability to melt away some of the emotional hurt, the pains, the tiredness, and sadness. It gave my overthinking brain a moment of calm. It made me feel strangely lighter and a few years later in 2019 it became one of the first healing modalities I became a master of. Reiki was the first healing technique I tried, as it was a way of releasing the tension inside of me without having to talk or do anything to deep. It is also a great way to just allow myself to relax and clear and cleanse away energy I have picked up from others during my day to day life. I still have a reiki cleanse monthly to make sure my energy is sparkly and clear!
Intuitive Healing: This came about quite unexpectedly, but during the end of the abusive relationship I was in, I was practicing a lot of meditation and reiki to get through it. As I did this many different tools were shown to me during this meditative state, and as I connected to my chakras I could see past versions of myself held there that were hurting, and needed to be healed - using different tools such as reiki, symbols, violet flame, crystals, geometric shapes, time line cleansing, and anything else that came to me during this time I was able to release the hurt parts of me that were holding onto the trauma cycles that were playing out in my life. I decided to offer this to others as a modality that can help you embark on a deeper healing journey without all the talking therapy stuff, and combine it with reiki so that after the hurt parts were released, the clearing and cleansing energy can rebalance and uplift you.
Cord Cutting: This was such an integral part of my healing journey and once I had experienced it I just new I had to offer it to others to allow them to experience its powerful healing benefits too. I used cord cutting to release all the negative ties and trauma bonds I had with my ex partner, so I could move on from the relationship once and for all and be able to reflect on it without the heart wrenching pain or any remorse. I used it with my father so that I could give myself closure on what had happened between us and put an end to the pain and hurt I felt in my heart knowing our relationship was over. I used it to clear my energy with god (source), so that I could feel more connecting and trusting of that energy and take greater chances and risks in life knowing the universe supports me, and with old friendships that had taken different paths with somethings left unsaid that had been troubling me. Cord cutting is an excellent way of clearing out all old negative energy between you and another person, releasing the karmic lessons, and being able to move on with your life without holding hurt and resentment from the past. Cord cutting doesn't remove positive cords and so you don't need to be afraid of cutting a loved one out of your life with this process, only the negativity held between you.
Trauma Healing/Inner Child Healing: This was a big and transformational one for me and a journey I have touched on lightly a few times before but went in the deep end in 2024. In all honesty, I have personally never liked traditional talking therapy that much. It is a good way of releasing things. But for me revisiting the trauma is just retraumatising. It feels long and drawn out and I personally always left my therapy sessions feeling super sad and like I had just relived the most painful parts of my life for no benefit. Now there are plenty of people that it has helped, and that is great, but healing is not a one size fits all and for me it was not the way I wanted to heal my deepest traumas. Last year I finally found a trauma/inner child healer that was perfect for me. We focussed on healing the core traumas in each of the core chakras. Fear and guilt in the root chakra, shame in the sacral chakra, anxiety and overthinking in the solar plexus chakra, grief in the heart chakra, holding back from speaking my truth in the throat chakra, blocking intuition in the third eye chakra, and releasing any hurt connected to my connection to god/source/the universe/higher power in the crown chakra. This healing literally changed my whole inner world and being. Sessions were only an hour long and we got to the root cause of the trauma in each session quickly and effectively, and whilst the emotions came up during the process, because we worked on healing and reprograming little inner me during this time, afterwards instead of feeling retraumatised I felt lighter, peaceful, balanced, like my whole trauma cycle had melted away into the distance. This was the healing technique I had been looking for, for years, and I had finally found it. So I just had to learn and offer it to you guys too. With my sessions we will go through the same process but we add in a little bit of reiki at the end too, just to give you that extra clearing, grounding and realigning after the work has been done. The results so far have been propound, and this is the perfect addition for those looking to get down the to root causes of their pain once and for all.
Past Life Regression: In and amongst all of the healing work I was doing, I learnt about and quickly became very interested in past life regression. How can we really access past life memories, how do they affect us today, who was I, who am I, am I playing out karmic lessons in this life from previous lives, I was so intrigued. And honestly I cannot tell you all of it in words, as it really is something you must experience, and from being a practitioner I have learned that we all experience past life memories differently. To access these memories, first you must get into a mediative state where your conscious mind is relaxed and your sub conscious mind can show you what needs to be seen at this time. To me my lives are are hazy at first, but there is this strange feeling of knowing deep within me, and I trust that knowing and I allow it to grow and it leads me to the memories I need to access. I have had several past life regression experiences, each of which have shown me relevant connections, relationships in this life playing out in other ways in different lives, unexplainable fears or illnesses that were connected to past lives instead of this one, and others just showing me who I have been before. Each and every time, I take something deep and meaningful away from these experiences and connect to my soul and highest self on a deeper level. My spiritual connection to self changed in significant ways from my first past life experience and many of my clients have become more aligned, spiritual and connected to their true selves on a deeper level after embarking on their past lives journeys. It is truly a life changing experience and definitely one for those looking to know themselves more on a soul level.
Akashic Record Retrieval: Wow! This journey for me was truly so special and so beautiful. It took me to a place out of this world, where I was surrounded by loved ones and angelic beings, and allowed me to explore the akashic library where I was given the information I needed to be aware of at that time in my life for my own personal growth (this is what I had set my intention for). The experience was so beautiful I cried, and afterwards my connection to my soul and spiritual self had expanded deeply. I absolutely had to share this experience with the world. It is just over an hour long, and I always think that going into it with an intention, but open mind that the universe knows what is right for you to see and will show you what you need to know is the best way to experience it. A very beautiful offering to expand your soul connection and growth.
