Soleil’s Qualifications

A huge part of what I see as qualifications is the ‘walking the talk’, applying learning and gathering much life experience with many different people. I am by nature a kinaesthetic learner so i very much like to experience things and gather wisdom, not just knowledge. I am always my first experiment!

It is such an honour to work with people who want to step into their loving power and potential. 

During the extensive time I have spent facilitating others to become self empowered (- decades!!) I have accumulated a wide variety of skills, a large amount of life experience, insight and wisdom, written 6 books, had my own weekly newspaper column and been on radio and TV.

I first started counseling at the ripe old age of 16 after completing lifeline training and working at the University student counseling centre for three years whilst I completed my degree.

I have been on my own journey of self empowerment too and I have healed from traumas, faced death head on a number of times and uncovered how to become self- empowered.  My aim has always been to be as clear, present and loving as is possible.
