Meet Sarah
Originally from France, my calling has taken me across the Earth.
Since 2015, I’ve worked internationally in humanitarian aid, social work, and the disability and aged care sectors. Those experiences have confirmed the incredible resilience and diversity of humans.
I landed in Australia in 2018. The Adelaide Hills have captured my heart, offering me a profound sense of belonging and connection.
I am a gentle, caring, compassionate soul who finds meaning in deep reflections, existential exploration, and creative expressions through writing, poetry, and movement. I am a person-centred, trauma-informed ecotherapist and holistic counsellor.
Nature is my sanctuary—where I experience the full spectrum of emotions, from discomfort to belonging, acceptance and gratitude. With Nature, I feel alive.
With deep care and our Grandmother Earth - Together, we will create a space where you can explore, experience, feel, heal, and reconnect.
What is Ecotherapy?
-
Balance
The idea of finding the perfect balance is a myth.
In psychotherapy, we work on a sense of homeostasis and inner peace. Realistic balance comes from experiencing, embracing and integrating life's inevitable challenges and imperfections.
-
Change
You can be the master of change and transformation. Through experiences of awakening and self-realization, you can gain the ability to navigate and shape change in your daily life. With openness and awareness, you can integrate profound changes within yourself.
You can embody a more authentic and wild version of who you are.
-
Cycles
In nature, therapy helps you embrace its natural rhythms and cycles. It guides you in accepting chaos, disorder, and discomfort as essential aspects of transformation. Just as seasons bring both destruction and renewal, therapy acknowledges that sometimes unpacking and destroying can be necessary for rebuilding.
Therapy is an exploration of seasons of growth and changes.
-
Mindfulness
Ecotherapy is a gradual and intentional process that thrives on deep grounding, care, and nervous system regulation. It involves careful attention to observation, active listening, stillness, contemplation, and the art of noticing. You are in the now.
Therapy is mindful work.
-
Nature
You are intrinsically connected to nature. Your life is one of exploring yourself and healing in harmony with the natural world. The wisdom of Mother Earth supports and guides you towards exploring, understanding, and healing.
Ecotherapy is rooted in these Nature-Based Approaches, drawing on the profound intelligence of the environment to facilitate your personal transformation. You are nature.
-
Processes
Therapy can be a challenging and uncomfortable process. It is a slow, confusing, and occasionally painful work. It is a process of organizing the mind and reconnecting with the self and within nature. Therapy fosters healing and growth.
Therapy is deep and transformative. It is soul work.
-
Reconnection
Therapy is a profound invitation to reconnection.
One that brings you back to yourself. Exploring all the layers and dimensions of who you are. It involves deepening your connection with your higher and truer self. It’s rediscovering your bond with your Home - the natural world.
-
Relationships
Walking the Therapeutic Path is learning to master Relationships and Communication.
Through the therapeutic encounter, we can enhance your ability to connect with others through genuine endeavours and empathy. We can focus on forming, maintaining, and enriching relationships with individuals and groups. Most importantly, you can strengthen the connection with yourself, nature, animals, and the environment.
-
Spirituality
Therapy can support you in reconnecting with your deeper, darker and also brighter Self. We can explore and embrace the unknown, the invisible, and the intangible together. Therapy can also be a spiritual quest.
A Pretty Song
“From the complications of loving you
I think there is no end or return.
No answer, no coming out of it.
Which is the only way to love, isn’t it?
This isn’t a playground, this is
earth, our heaven, for a while.
Therefore I have given precedence
to all my sudden, sullen, dark moods
that hold you in the center of my world.
And I say to my body: grow thinner still.
And I say to my fingers, type me a pretty song.
And I say to my heart: rave on.”
© 2006 by Mary Oliver

By slowing down and engaging your senses, we invite mindfulness, creativity, and deep relaxation into your body. Whether through walking in the forest, connecting with plants, or creating art from natural materials, each practice strengthens your connection to yourself and nature.
