Former Police Detective & Family Liaison Officer, London Metropolitan Police

Zoe doesn't just practise this work. She lived the experience that led her to it. Her own journey through chronic fatigue and emotional burnout became the foundation of everything she now offers to clients worldwide.

She knows what it feels like to be stuck. And she knows what it feels like to finally find the way through.

Zoe's story

From exhausted to whole.

Before this work, Zoe served as a Police Detective and Family Liaison Officer in London's Metropolitan Police. It was a role that required a counselling certificate to practise. She sat with people in the very worst moments of their lives. She learned how to listen properly, how to hold complexity without rushing to solve it, and how to be a steady presence in a storm.

That work shaped her. It taught her something about what people actually need when everything has fallen apart. It also took its toll.

For a long time, Zoe lived with the kind of tiredness that sleep doesn't fix. Chronic fatigue and emotional burnout had become her normal. The persistent fog, the depletion, the sense of carrying something heavy that she couldn't quite name or put down.

She tried what most people try. Rest. Pushing through. Talking about it. Managing it. But the underlying pattern kept returning. Something deeper wasn't shifting.

"I knew I wasn't lazy. I knew something was happening beneath the surface. I just hadn't found the right key to unlock it yet."

It was through her own healing journey that Zoe discovered the Emotion Code and Body Code. She experienced firsthand what it feels like when trapped emotions are identified and released. The shifts were real. Sometimes gradual. Sometimes immediate. But undeniably there.

That experience changed everything. Not just how she felt, but what she understood was possible for people who had been told there was nothing more to be done, or who had simply stopped believing things could be different.

She trained and certified through Discover Healing in the Emotion Code, Body Code, and Belief Code, alongside her qualifications as a Certified Yoga Therapist and Yoga & Pilates Instructor. More recently, she has returned to her counselling roots, completing a Diploma in Holistic Counselling. Bringing together everything she has learned, lived, and held space for over the years.

Zoe works online with clients worldwide, and in person on the Sunshine Coast. Her approach is warm, unhurried, and grounded in the simple belief that the body knows how to heal. It often just needs the right support to begin.

"I was sceptical about energy healing but I thought I would try it out. Today, I have had a significant shift in emotion on a subject that Zoe worked on in our session. The result was instantaneous. This works and Zoe is such a kind and calming practitioner."

How Zoe works

Her approach in practice.

Every session is shaped by three principles that guide everything Zoe does.

🌱

Root cause, not symptom management

Zoe works to find and release the underlying imbalances. Trapped emotions, limiting beliefs, energetic disruptions, the patterns we keep returning to. Rather than managing how they present on the surface. The goal is lasting change, not temporary relief.

🤍

Gentle, non-invasive, and at your pace

There is no requirement to relive trauma, recount painful experiences in detail, or push through discomfort. The work is precise and compassionate. Led by what your body is ready to release, when it's ready.

Mind, body and spirit as one

Drawing on energy healing, yoga therapy, and holistic counselling, Zoe's practice honours the inseparable connection between mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing. What lives in the body shows up in life. What's released from the body changes life.

In clients' words

What it's like to work with Zoe.

★★★★★
"Admittedly I was slightly sceptical when I first sat down with Zoe for my first session. After years of feeling tired, unconfident and just 'not me', Zoe oozed warmth and immediately made me feel comfortable and safe. After the first session, I felt lighter and far more connected with my emotions and body than I had done for years. I felt a much lighter, more connected and stronger person for it. I would highly recommend Zoe."

★★★★★
"I had been feeling very low and unmotivated for a while when I started seeing Zoe. She was so kind and compassionate and did some energetic balancing work alongside removing some negative emotions. I started feeling very calm and as if I could take on the rest of my day. Without a doubt I feel more positive, more energetic and keen to do things in my life that I had stopped wanting to do. I know that this energy work will now always be part of my life. Thank you Zoe."
