Your healing journey starts here

Conscious Flow exists to help people heal and transform themselves, using a range of proven healing treatment options. 

Based on the modalities of Compassionate Inquiry and Internal Family Systems, I use somatic experiencing (feeling into the body and emotions) practices to help my clients move into a space of less ‘doing’ and more ‘feeling’. By allowing ourselves to simply sit and feel, we are able to connect to our true selves.

Most people weren’t taught how to sit with and manage difficult emotions; we weren’t taught how to be with ourselves. Many of us grew up learning how to suppress emotions, rather than being lovingly held and shown how to make sense of uncomfortable feelings – known as self regulating. 

As a result, when faced with challenges and difficult emotions, we turn to coping mechanisms that help us numb, avoid, deny or escape (the cause of addictions), leaving many of us grappling with unresolved mental health issues.

Most people assume trauma is only linked to major events – in reality, trauma manifests itself in many different ways. If you feel ‘triggered’ or experience anxiety, depression or some other mental diagnosis, then you may have experienced some form of trauma. 

I can help.

I’ll equip you with the tools to acknowledge your feelings in a safe and empowered way, allowing you to self regulate and be more present in life.

You can awaken your consciousness and achieve a peaceful state of deep flow – true freedom and fulfilment.

Common issues people seek help with

I have years of experience supporting people as they make sense of their own experiences, emotions and trauma. Whatever battle you’re facing, wherever you are in the world, I can help you experience a higher level of inner peace.

Meet Sharnie

Psychosomatic Therapist & Founder

I have always had a fascination with people and the ‘why’ of what makes people behave and respond the way that they do.

My work in mental health began in suicide prevention. Following that, I transitioned into roles involving inpatient support and community mental health as a Mental Health Worker in Australia. During this time, I also became a certified Reiki practitioner and over the past 12 years, I’ve delved into the realms of somatic experiencing, gaining insights into psycho-somatic manifestations within the body.

I’ve worked as a dating and relationship coach, across Australia, Europe, UK and the USA; helping women date and manage relationship issues.

I completed study with world-renowned physician, Dr Gabor Maté in Compassionate Inquiry, a somatic experiencing technique to help people connect to their true selves. 

All of my experiences in different facets of mental health have given me a greater understanding of relationships, and helped me to become a more empathetic and compassionate psycho-somatic therapist, who recognises people where they are on their journey of understanding their own emotions and trauma.

My diverse experiences across different facets of mental health gave me deep insight into relationships and trauma, shaping me into an empathetic and compassionate psycho-somatic therapist. I meet individuals wherever they are on their journey of understanding their emotions and navigating trauma.

Over the course of my career, I’ve become deeply interested in innovative approaches to helping people – including psychedelic assisted therapy, Compassionate Inquiry, Internal Family Systems, EMDR and Neurofeedback. 

My own life has been transformed by my journey to heal my own past trauma, empowering me to support others as they learn to feel into the body, experience emotions and learn to self-regulate in a life-changing way.
