“A story is ‘holy,’ and is used as a medicine. The story is not told to lift you up, to make you feel better, or to entertain you, although all those things can be true. The story is meant to take the spirit into a descent find something that is lost or missing and to bring it back to consciousness again”

– Clarissa Pinkola Estes

Welcome

I would like to invite you — not just the part of you seeking to connect, but all the different parts of you, both conscious and unconscious. The left behind parts, future parts, the messy parts, parts that hold meaning, and the parts that long to be remembered. All are welcome here, so that every part of who you are can begin to work together, rather than in conflict.

In the therapy room, we often talk about things that rarely find space in everyday life. At times, the unconscious may bring forward thoughts or images that seem irrelevant. Yet, this is often its way of bypassing the conscious mind — which can sometimes block or resist the sharing of something deeper.

Whatever brings you here, know that you are held within a sacred and contained space. This is a place to explore, unearth, and weave together the many aspects of yourself through gentle psychotherapy. Here, we can bring these parts into relationship, allowing you to move through the world in a more integrated, whole, and optimal way.

Most importantly, this is your time — and you cannot do it “wrong.” Every moment that unfolds in therapy offers valuable insight. Together, we stay present with what is, rather than rushing ahead. All the information we need is found in the present moment, not in the future. Sometimes we may plan to move in a certain direction, and your unconscious will guide us there in the way that best supports you — gently leading us toward what you truly need, which may not always look the way you imagined.

About Soul Centred Psychotherapy

Soul Centred Psychotherapy is an accredited therapeutic approach that places the relationship between therapist and client at its heart. It invites mindfulness, deep attention, and awareness of lived experience. This process honours meaning, enchantment, and the sacred within each individual.

What sets Soul Centred Psychotherapy apart is its depth of focus. While other forms of therapy may use similar techniques, this approach weaves them through a soulful lens — one that values connection, reflection, and the unique story of your life.

About Ivana

I am a qualified and registered Soul Centred Psychotherapist & Counsellor, offering a gentle, grounded, and somatic approach to healing.

I am a registered and respected member of:

  • PACFA – Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (Member #27247)
  • ASCP – The Association of Soul Centred Psychotherapists (Member #15078)

Guided by a lifelong curiosity about the inner world, I have explored spirit-based practices, Eastern philosophy, and the deeper dimensions of being. It was through discovering Soul Centred Psychotherapy (SCP) that I finally felt at home — home to Self.

My journey began in a war-torn country before my family and I started anew in New Zealand. Entering school without a word of English, I experienced isolation, disconnection, and loss of identity. These early experiences shaped my understanding of the human psyche and the many ways it adapts and protects us in order to survive.

Drawing on this lived experience, combined with extensive training under Kaalii and Andrew Cargill, founders of SCP, that I offer my work today. I hold deep respect for the courage it takes to seek support. My practice creates a supportive and sacred space where all parts of you are welcome, and where transformation unfolds naturally, at your own pace.

This unknown fact is what Jung calls the Self, which is the psychic totality of an individual and also, paradoxically, the regulating centre of the collective unconscious. Every individual and every nation have its own modes of experiencing this psychic reality.”

Working Together

In my practice, I predominantly work with women from all seasons and stories — women seeking deeper connection, understanding, and balance within themselves. Each session is tailored to your individual needs, drawing on somatic practices, gentle interventions, and Soul Centred Psychotherapy techniques that support you in moving towards a more conscious, creative, and embodied relationship with life.

Together, we work to ease the weight of experiences that can feel unbearable at times, including:

  • Stress and overwhelm

  • Anxiety and depression

  • Grief and loss

  • Trauma and PTSD

  • Relationship challenges

  • Life transitions and cycles

  • Health and body issues

  • Culture shock or relocation depression

  • Repatriation and adjustment

  • Isolation and loneliness

  • Sleep or appetite changes

  • Addiction

Every journey is unique, and not every approach suits everyone. That’s why I adapt each session to meet you where you are — supporting your mind, body, and soul in a way that feels both gentle and effective.

A Gentle Invitation

You don’t need to arrive with answers — only a willingness to be present.
Often, the path to healing begins with a gentle yes to yourself.

If something within you is stirring, trust that. This space is here to hold you — to listen, to support,
and to help you reconnect with what feels true.

Guided Back to My Inner Light

I approached Ivana as I wanted to further my meditation practise on a deeper level. It, along with myself, had stalled. I was looking for guidance from an experienced teacher to expand and strengthen my inner/outer world. Upon meeting Ivana and joining her meditation workshop, what I found was a healer who was humble, genuine, kind and one of humility. Most importantly I instantly found her 100% authentic.

Her skills are unquestionable. Her passion, connectivity, attention and awareness within our group was undeniable. Thanks to Ivana my experience with her presence totally enriched my meditation to a level I could never have thought possible.

She brought imagination, fun, spirit, warmth, and wisdom from a higher dimension from which is rarely seen. I could not recommend her highly enough. She will guide you to your inner light and want nothing but happiness in return. That’s why I keep going back.

A Safe Space for Healing and Integration

I just want to thank you so much for being such an amazing space holder and an important part of my healing journey, helping me to make sense of and integrate my experiences. Would love to leave that as a testimony if there is somewhere to share. I also went home and did an artwork based on our session I’ll share with you. It’s the mother child symbol with breath symbol in middle.
Thank you once again

Coming Home to Myself

Ivana holds a safe and sacred space that is full of nurture, healing, strength and magic. I have witnessed Ivana’s many talents that include teacher, sacred space holder, therapist, life coach, healer and psychic-medium. She is able to weave all her talents together to support what you are needing in that moment. I attend her weekly psychic—mediumship development classes and have had many one on one sessions with her that been profound, life changing and healing. The sessions and class has unravelled many skills I have and allowed me to come home to myself so I can be present, aware and intuitive in all areas of my life.

Ivana has helped me professionally and personally on so many different levels and allowed me to heal that which no longer serves my highest good. She always welcomes you with her beautiful heart and presence and holds a space full of love. Thank you IVANA.

A Heartfelt Reflection

Ivana is a profoundly gifted and sensational medium and therapist. Her uniquely authentic attitude towards her work provides a warm and welcoming space where you can feel comfortable to access deep parts of yourself physically, mentally and spiritually. During the readings I have received I was deeply moved to see how raw, real and humble her connection to spirit was. I found Ivana to be extremely intune and connected to universal flow but still be grounded and able to connect with me with a compassionate heart and accountability. I am thoroughly enjoying watching her previous readings manifest and unfold before my eyes and will continue to see Ivana whenever I feel stuck with direction and need clarity.

Ivanas psychotherapy sessions are one of the most effective healing modalities I have ever experienced. Ivana creates a safe space for you to travel deeply focusing on self empowerment and encouragement of inner strength. Her ability to connect with your body on a somatic level is extremely advanced and with her own experiences brings through wisdom and knowledge that seem ‘other worldly’.

I was lucky enough to meet Ivana during my second pregnancy in which I asked her to host and hold space for my ‘blessing way’. I was deliciously surprised with a ceremony that was both drenched in ancient wisdom with a balance of nurturing loving energy. Everything she provided on that day was heart opening and really allowed me space and support to connect deeply to my baby and birth. I couldn’t have wished for a more loving, supportive and fun day and will always carry that day with me in my memories and in my heart.
