MEET KATIE
Hi, I'm Katie
Welcome to this space...
I am Katie McCarthy I have many labels I do not like to be boxed, but I also understand these labels give us an understanding of people.
​
I hold a Diploma in beauty therapy and have been working in the industry since 2009, working in a variety of salons and exploring the many aspects of the beauty industry. I also collaborated with 2 other wonderful women in running a wellness clinic Wanderlust Wellness in Kalgoorlie Western Australia (2016).
I express my artistic side creating art under the brand of Violet and Lion as a silversmith or wearable earth maker since 2014 using mixed metals and gemstones, creating jewellery that can be used as anchors and reminders of celebration in our lives to adorn our physical bodies with gifts from mother earth that light up the soul.
​
I have roots in Naturopathy completing a diploma through a private college, while I don't specifically practice the modality I use aspects from my learnings in my everyday life and took an interest to herbs and love creating herbal teas.
My own life journey lead me to study various modalities of the healing arts, I learnt the art of reiki and continued with study to become a Reiki master, then went on to teach and attune others in this modality. I was then led to study a modality called Forensic healing which is where I found huge shifts in my own healing and soul journey. I obtained my Diploma and went on to offer this modality along with teaching Reiki in the Kalgoorlie wellness clinic Wanderlust wellness. Along the way I immersed myself in learning about the healing energy of crystals and became a Liquid crystal practitioner. So as you can see there is a theme in my life that led me to the healing and nurturing arts.
​
I now have many different views on my journey and now use a mix of modalities in my "healing" sessions although I don't really like to call them healing sessions it's more about igniting a journey of transformation and supporting others on their own soul journey, but for now calling it a healing session helps with the boxing and understanding of thing.
My current focus in my journey and current area of study is the nervous system, breathwork, sound healing and somatic body based approaches connecting with a multi sensory experience embracing all aspects of ourselves.
I am also immersing myself into the Fungi kingdom in the way of Mushroom essences harnessing the energetics of the fungi kingdom for use in support of integrating and embracing all aspects of our being. I share this via my project in creation Myco Essence.
I have also added an extra element into my healing and nervous system work with Healy a frequency device, using frequency to attune our bodies to our highest potential. Healy can assist on many levels from physical body pain, nervous system balancing, energy and meridian systems and more. My study of the nervous system has led me to study Spinal energetics and will be offering this as a session to to assist clients to connect to their own innate body wisdom and allow the body to release stored tension patterns through working with the energy of the body.
