Whakarongo ~ To Listen

Step into a space where your body, mind, and spirit are truly held. I am here to assist you as The Architect, guiding gentle restoration through trauma-informed therapies, and coaching.

Healing begins with simple kōrero — honest, open conversation that speaks your wellbeing into existence. Here, we rebuild, reassure, and stabilise together through whole-istic architecture, allowing you to soften out of chaos, rest into yourself, and emerge quietly into your own strength. This is a place to be seen, to breathe, and to come home to yourself.

Sometimes RomiRomi massage of the soul — a deeply nurturing practice for those who are ready to receive it is called. It meets you exactly where you are, helping your body, mind, and spirit release tension, restore flow, and remember its natural ease.

Welcome to my safe space. Welcome to Tihema Botanicals

Romiromi

Romiromi isn’t just bodywork — it’s a beautiful release. It reaches deep into the layers you’ve built up over time, and through generations before you. It works on the physical, emotional, and wairua, helping to shift trauma that’s been carried, stored, or passed down to you.

It's the kind that doesn’t always show up in words — it shows up in the shoulders, in the chest, in the gut, in the way we hold ourselves and move through life.

This mahi isn’t a one-size-fits-all kind of healing. Every romiromi is different because every body, every wairua, every story is different. Some people cry, some laugh, some shake, some sleep — whatever needs to move, moves. It’s a deep reset — a soft (lol) and gentle returning to yourself, a remembering of who you are underneath it all.=, and who you deserve to move as. It's an opportunity to shift realties, of what you hold into what needs to shed.

If you’re feeling the pull to release, reconnect, and create space for your own healing, I’m offering Romiromi sessions by (appointment only) every Saturday at the Wanneroo Markets.
