About Ellen Evans – Holistic Life Coach

Healing yourself from the inside out

As a Holistic Life Coach and with a deep passion for self-growth and self-expression, I have spent many years of intense study in psychology (BA degree), Transpersonal Counselling & Psychotherapy (MA degree) and Creative Writing (MA degree). I am registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Trained in the UK, I have over fifteen years of experience as an Integrative Psychotherapist in both private practice and within the professional sector.

Currently, I practice as a Holistic Life Coach and Meditation & Mindfulness Teacher in Cape Town.

Over years of both personal development and professional development, I have gathered a tool box of supportive ways to help people shift from wounding and negative self-beliefs to healthier ways of being.

In a very intuitive way, I assist clients in accessing their own innate wisdom. Sessions typically include talking about and reflecting upon issues and processing painful areas, though any issue – at any pace – can be covered in any one session. Sessions are also spent looking at the ‘positive,’ for true healing is a matter  of seeing, integrating, and accepting both ‘light and shadow.’

Sometimes EMDR is suggested; a successful technique that helps clear any negative thought patterns and past traumas (major or minor).

Establishing a supportive and confidential therapeutic relationship is at the heart of my practice. In this kind of setting, clients can safely access places where they feel stuck or wounded, and can move forward in a positive and empowering way.

For clients wanting a more spiritual approach, the sessions may be used to look at dreams, or to practice creative visualisation techniques.

I also work as an Angel Practitioner and offer separate Angel Therapies (Reiki, Indian Head Massage, Readings) to interested clients. I also offer meditation and mindfulness workshops.

Most importantly, the best ‘tool’ I have is the ability to be there for someone unconditionally, however imperfect they feel they are, however perfect they feel they must become.

This is at the heart of my practice. And at the heart of that…love.
