counseling and coaching for intentional living and exceptional lives
The Muddy Lotus Life
Therapy for the soul
The Muddy Lotus Life is dedicated to partnering with adults who could benefit from the assistance of experienced support to reduce tension, anxiety, mild depression and increase a peaceful mindset. I help you connect to how you impact your own life through your thoughts, feelings and actions. Are you interested in how you can contribute to your own life resilience? To have help through both the ups and downs in life?
You may have already experienced the dark night of the soul which strips you down to your most vulnerable or been through a myriad of experiences that have had a collective impact. I’m here as your guide, therapist, coach or mentor. Chose the label that fits and the conversations and partnering will be tailored for you.
Hi, I'm Ella
It's my belief and experience that we get more out of life when willing to evaluate it from time to time. To reflect, adjust and grow. Rather then being awake and aware of how we affect our own experience we often live quite unconscious. Have you been affected by a life event, have a desire for a new direction, or an issue you want to resolve? Let’s discover more about your inner world so you can choose your behavior in the world at large. Connecting with the right support is essential. From a depth of experience, I bring curiosity, compassion and challenge to help you forge a more aware, resilient and expansive life view.
Specialities
Women
I’m passionate about assisting women to be confident in who they are now as well as how to refine or adjust for the future they envision. How do you view yourself at this stage of your life? What comes next? Deepen the relationship with your soul and your external relationships will benefit.
Men
I truly enjoy working with men who want to deepen their relationship with themselves and others. Connecting with your emotions, life purpose and value brings greater life balance and peace. Society often tells men how to ‘be’. Let’s explore what that means and how to be true to yourself.
Non-Binary Folx
My personal view has always been that we are all more than our physical gender. We are a soul which transcends the physical and our identity should be as fluid as it desires.
I recognize that humans do not always want to be contained by labels and welcome you as you see yourself.
Deeper meaning to life….
The Lotus is a symbol I respect. It is born through the depths of rich mud and grows to share its beauty under the sun. Life isn’t always perfect. It’s messy and amazing, a struggle and then fruitful. At any stage in life you can benefit from support to get clarity and understanding. Are you ready?
