An invitation to heal
Claudia Bretschneider
Counsellor, Transpersonal Psychotherapist, Quantum Healing Facilitator and Yoga Practitioner
​
From my beginnings in Switzerland life has taken me on my own journey of discovery. I began studying yoga under well known Yogi Salvarajan Yesudian and Elisabeth Haich at the age of 15. My training in counselling and psychotherapy began in 1995 working in a psychiatric hospital in Switzerland. I worked at Atma Shakti Vidyalaya, a progressive centre treating people with a variety of mental health issues in India and I moved to Australia in 1998 and completed a Bachelor of Social Science in Applied Counselling at Edith Cowan University and a Graduate Diploma in Transpersonal Psychology at the Crucible Centre. I have various additional diplomas in Yogic Science and teaching as well as Zen Shiatsu and Reiki. In the past years I have worked in various Community sectors across Australia. I provide support for Employees (EAP) and in addition, Counselling and Psychotherapy is available for clients living overseas.​

As people are becoming increasingly more aware of the interconnectedness of the mind, body and soul and the importance of having a healthy relationship with themselves in order to improve relationships with others, their is a growing trend to include therapy as a means of self-discovery and self-care, along with quantum healing, yoga, meditation and so on.
