Hello I’m Clíona, Somatic Trauma Alchemist, author, healer and teacher. I help midlife women feeling anxiety, fear, and overwhelm, return to calm, grounded safety. Healing unresolved trauma and other psychological blocks reconnects them to their love, light and joy.
Healing often becomes a spiritual journey with the potential for awakening and higher self-awareness.
My spiritual evolution into the work I do today, began as a student in 1989, when I started exploring meditation and Eastern philosophies. I became a journalist in London in 1995, then while travelling from 1996 to 1999, I had an epiphany on a beach in Mexico and I retrained in holistic massage, reflexology, pranic healing and reiki. Back in London, I specialised in writing about natural health and spiritual evolution.
My spiritual questing began in earnest in 2001 when I attended my first conscious dance class – 5Rhythms – in London. From my first dance I was hooked. Since then I’ve taken part in countless dance, tantra, encounter, shamanic and healing workshops, trainings and satsangs. All these have all helped me grow and develop as a person and practitioner. In 2016
I relocated to Devon in 2006 and became a gestalt counsellor in 2010. Seven years of trauma from two car crashes, prompted me to specialise in trauma therapy and I qualified as a Somatic Trauma Therapist in 2013 with Babette Rothschild, world renowned trauma specialist.
I also began travelling around Europe, dancing with the 5Rhythms international core teaching team including: Andrea Juhan, Kathy Altman and Lori Saltzman and Jonathan Horan. After Gabrielle Roth, the creator of 5Rhythms died, I continued training with the most of the same teachers who called their work Open Floor. I was thrilled to become an Open Floor conscious dance teacher in 2016.
In 2019, after years of working as an intuitive counsellor, somatic trauma therapist, dance teacher and tantric priestess I gave up my comfortable life and flourishing business following the guidance of the Divine Feminine. I left England on a spiritual pilgrimage and began a voyage into the unknown…
Mystical experiences of transcendental illumination in Chartres and Lourdes shone a laser light into negative past lives I was unaware of, precipitating more than one dark night of the soul.
My pilgrimage brought me to Italy where I participated in a life-changing training transformative retreat: SOLEI 17 (the Sacred Order of Light Energy and Information 17). I am so grateful to have been taught by Dr Swan Montague, a mystic, master healer and spiritual teacher under the guidance of Christ and Christess.
The retreat catalysed an immense amount of self-healing, divine illumination, transformation and strengthened my personal relationship with the Divine. There a paradigm shift shook my foundations and took my life in an unexpected direction.
My love affair with Sardinia lasted two years but eventually I had to leave.
Even though arriving in Arillas in Greece felt like a home-coming, I fell in love with a man this time and another adventure began with an invitation I couldn’t refuse…
I travelled and lived in Tanzania and Zanzibar in Africa, for 14 months all the while developing my own divine intuitive healing practise influenced by my intuition and what I learned in Italy. That became Divine Light (Transformational) Healing.

The latest addition to my healing repertoire was re-discovering alchemy, the art of transforming consciousness in 2024. My passion for alchemy comes from past lives I spent as an alchemy teacher in Lemuria and Atlantis. I’m now one of a team of alchemists working at the cutting-edge of consciousness giving life-changing healings on a daily basis.
At the moment using your consciousness to transform your body, your health, your finances, and to heal your pet, may be on the fringe. But in the future everyone will be using consciousness-changing healing techniques as a matter of course.
My counselling skills have developed into mentoring, my therapy, teaching and healing has developed into Somatic Trauma Alchemy Healing. All my work is steeped in experiential knowing and direct communion with the Divine. I am guided and supported by spirit teams and two master teachers: Dr Swan Montague and Dominique Montague to who I am incredibly grateful. I hold sacred space with safety and compassion, see your true potential, and support and challenge you to break through any barriers to stepping into your magnificence.
