About me

Hiya, I’m Carla

Professionally trained Breathwork + Somatic Therapist & Trauma-Certified Breathwork Coach.

And before I go any further, let me tell you that I used to be VERY resistant to this work. So if that’s how you’re feeling too, I can completely relate.

I feel you …

I have a gift for truly seeing you

I have a gift for the work that I do, in truly seeing you, which makes me great at my job. I also know that I don't have the answers, you do.

We work together to find them, to heal you, to free you.

My lived experience of various traumas, including deaths, and growing up in a ceasefire makes great teachers.

If you're feeling a lot of resistance, that's my specialty.

My Story

I used to believe I had no passions, nothing I cared about and addicted to being the busiest person you ever met.

At 27, I started therapy and was prescribed yoga and meditation to help reconnect to my body and self. Simple, right? Only it wasn't. I was so used to trying so hard at everything, it was fucking chaos for the first few years to learn to let go of efforting. It does not work for healing.

Something kept me showing up. There was a part who knew this was the path for me.

One day, my therapist asked me to give up weight training. My first reaction? “Are you high?” My secondary reaction? "She's trying to make me fat."

But she planted a seed. A few months later, I stopped all high intensity workouts. For around 6–9 months I practised yoga and walked, a complete 360 from the woman who trained 6 days a week and pushed herself to her absolute limit every time as a way to regulate her emotions and escape herself.

My Approach

I decided to train as a yoga therapist and breathwork coach to help people similar to me, who really want change in their lives.

My approach is through love and compassionate asking clients to invite in more softness, gentleness, tenderness. It is profoundly healing.

When it comes to healing, breathwork, and your body, the more you demand of it, the more it closes down. It's sorta like dating, too much questioning, expectation just ruins it. Curiosity, being open, accepting what you find as you find it is key.

The best thing you can do is slow down.

What is present when you pause? When you don't rush to the next moment.

Try it now. Close your eyes and take 5 conscious slow breaths.

Change is really hard. Healing is hard. Shedding old skin is uncomfortable but it's the medicine you seek. Your unfolding is needed.

Learn to get out of the way of yourself.

Let’s work together

My Values

Authenticity

For a long time I was so ashamed of who I was. My aspiration is to be unashamedly me and help others do the same.

Connection

All that matters in the end, is how deeply connected we are in relationships, which can only happen if we are deeply connected to ourselves.
