Ms Sarah Dakhili

Philosophy & Vision

Sarah's focus lies on helping clients feel heard, understood and supported so they can start to connect with their true nature and learn to live their lives from a space of love as opposed to fear. She is a great believer that life is a mirror and that our outer world reflects our inner world and once we start to understand that, we have so much more power than we can imagine. Sarah specialises in chronic pain (TMS) anxiety, depression, trauma recovery and interpersonal and work related issues.
