Get to the root of your struggle
permanent change
Hi, I am Rebecca.
I specialise in the lived experience of neurodivergence, trauma and challenging life events.
One thing I see repeatedly in the mental health space is support that predominantly helps you to cope, meet societal expectations and return to baseline.
The difference with the Sanctum is how we get into the root of your struggles using a holistic approach, to support you to make changes that are permanent, long lasting and awaken new possibilities for you in your life.
we back your life's quest
you are the bridge
Rising mental health struggles, burnout, relationship breakdowns, and bodily illness are not signs of weakness, they are wake up calls for us to become conscious creators.
People often see hopelessness and despair in times of great change. Pressure can feel inescapable and overwhelming. It can all feel too much and impossible. And that is when you are perfectly positioned to find untapped potential within yourself. Often on this kind of quest to change something in your life, you need the right kind of support, wisdom and guidance.
We are that place in your travel through life, to help you build a bridge from here to there.
what we focus on
growth mindset
Training the mind and body to keep experimenting on purpose, seeing adventure in the unknown.
truth & clarity
Cutting through noise and fantasy with honest reflection, powerful frameworks, and decisive next steps.
embodied spirit
Harnessing what your soul is passionate about so that you can create long lasting, repeatable success in your life.
our beliefs
1. no excuses
You are a sovereign adult with the ability to determine your own fate. Instead of focusing on what you can't do, we will focus on what you can do. This grows your skill and enhances your individuality.
2. radical compassion
Self actualisation is a powerful way to change your life, and it begins with thinking well and having compassion for self. This does not mean emotions are repressed, it means the focus we give them changes, so that you can trust and believe in yourself.
3. Maintain a state of curiosity as #1 priority
Curiosity is the psychological state that strengthens the bridge between your body, mind and spirit. Without it we are surviving with limited resources. Knowing how to always return to a state of curiosity instantly sparks change.
4. 110% effort for the things we gaf about
You are an active participant. Life will require you to put effort into it. Waiting for or expecting something outside of you to change is to live in limbo, rather than act as the living bridge between reality and the dream.
I'm beck
My passion is human behaviour and psychology, and its interplay with soma and spirit.
I didn’t plan on becoming a psychotherapist.
I just wanted to feel free.
Free to express.
Free to play.
Free to walk my path.
Free to do my souls work.
Turns out a lot of people want that same thing.
For much of my life I felt limited and trapped by the reality I found myself in, like I was playing small somehow and unable to really let rip on what I was capable of. I wasn’t born into a life that set me up for success, and my foundations for life were full of pain and struggle.
This forced me to face the impossible, and choose it. To learn how to break through limitations, bend the rules and make magic happen.
Understanding how to choose the impossible and take action on it, is what has allowed me to:
Successfully self employed for 20+ years
Evolve through many iterations of my life without having to go through crisis to experience change
Be a single mother supporting 3 children and still travelling the world and feeling personally fulfilled
Meet and eventually marry a man who fully backs me and my vision for life
Upskill and grow my gifts, including completing a Masters Degree to become a qualified psychotherapist and becoming a shamanic apprentice in the Twisted Hairs lineage
Find my people and cultivate a rich community and diverse world to live within
Develop a unique therapeutic style that bridges the gap between traditional talk therapy and alternative methodologies
Support more people than I could possibly count over 13 countries
And I am just getting started.
I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your life's quest.
