The impact speaks for itself, but don't just take our word for it...

“I’ve been to Hema’s retreat in India, three weekend retreats in Ireland and I use her as a mentor. I value the way she uses a mix of psychic ability, therapy and hypnotherapy to wonderful effect. She homes in on patterns holding me back and offers direct insight in how to move on from them…She is a beautiful, authentic, caring and talented speaker, teacher and mentor.”
