THE CHRYSALIS
The Chrysalis is a carefully held 12-week experience and community where depression isn’t something to rush to fix or pathologize, but something to understand, honour, and move through with depth and intention. Through somatics, emotional energy work, and soul alchemy, we’ll explore depression as an archetypal experience that carries a profound creative force of transformation.
Post-traumatic growth Hub
A digital space dedicated to post-traumatic growth that brings together neuroscience, somatic healing and soul alchemy. I use a deep integration of somatic and soul work, easy to understand science-based nervous system education, and a supportive community, you’ll have access to practical tools, actionable strategies, expert-led resources, and a supportive environment to dive in this work at your own pace.

What to expect from my work…
Neuroscience
My private programme, courses and workshops are founded on neuroscientific discoveries and, we always approach your mind and body as one unified system.
Shadow
You awaken your vitality by integrating your shadow. You find emotional healing and freedom through uncovering and feeling your repressed pain little by little, and not by bypassing it.
Cutting-edge education
The goal of somatics is to take you from being disembodied and feeling caged inside your own body to being embodied and feeling liberated inside your body.
Trauma-informed
We see symptoms through the lens of trauma, and we address their root causes instead of only focusing on the surface-level appearance of their expressions.
Embodiment
The educational resources and programmes I offer are of high-quality and I pride myself in delivering offerings created with great devotion, care and attention to detail.
Agency
You’re encouraged to develop your sense of agency whether we work privately together or in a group setting. You’re in the driver’s seat of your healing journey.
Depth
We don’t do superficiality here. There is depth in what I create and teach, and this is one of the reasons my community, students and clients are attracted to my work.
You can learn to trust your body again, believe in its capacity to heal and activate the innate restorative powers of your nervous system after trauma.

About me
Hi, I’m Effie.
your body has an innate capacity to heal after trauma. But it needs the right support & guidance.
After my training in the fields of trauma and the nervous system, through teaching and supporting private clients and groups, and thanks to my personal insights from my own healing journey after living with trauma for almost 20 years, I realised our body is more powerful than we’re taught, and our nervous system more resilient than we believe.
My holistic approach bridges neuroscience with soul work, body with mind, and cognition with intuition to help you process trauma and emotions, and create a more conscious, fulfilling life rooted in the authentic ‘you’.
