My Story & Ancestral Lineage

"I believe we all carry the ability to heal within us. But sometimes life brings us to a place where we need more than willpower: we need a guide, a safe space, and the courage to go inward."

I came to shamanic healing through my own grief. After losing someone I loved deeply, I found myself carrying a weight I didn't know how to put down. I tried different approaches, but it was shamanic practice that truly reached me. Not as a quick fix, but as a path that asked something real of me: dedication, vulnerability, and a willingness to own my healing and do the work. Over time, that path brought me back to myself, and to my true purpose.

That journey is at the heart of everything I do. When I sit with a client, I bring not just training and experience, but lived understanding of what it is to carry something heavy and the deep respect that comes from knowing what it takes to begin.

I grew up between two cultures (Egyptian and Irish) and that blend has shaped my practice from the beginning. Moving between different ancestral traditions taught me early that each person's healing path is entirely their own.

For over 15 years, Battersea has been my home. Alongside my private sanctuary practice in Battersea, I hold regular sound sessions at Oca London in Bermondsey and host ceremonies honoring the cycles of the moon.

The Sanctuary Foundation

How Healing Begins

Healing begins with feeling safe enough to be honest about where you are. That is always where we start.

Deep, Unhurried Listening

I am told that I have a grounding, nurturing presence and I hold that as one of the most important parts of my work. Before anything else happens in a session, you need to feel held. Heard. Safe enough to let your guard down and begin to explore what is really going on beneath the surface.

Shaped Entirely Around You

No two sessions are ever the same. Each one is shaped around your history, your needs, and what is present for you on that day. I work with shamanic healing, sound therapy, chakra rebalancing, and tarot guidance, often weaving these together as the session calls for it.

No Pressure to Know What You Need

Some clients come knowing exactly what they want to address. Others arrive simply knowing that something needs to shift, and that is equally valid. We start with where you are and take it step by step.
