Holding space for you to heal, restore and revive
Blue Mountains Wellness Centre
Counselling
I specialise in transpersonal therapy, which provides a holistic approach to your wellbeing. I address not only your mental, but your physical, social, spiritual and creative needs. I offer affordable, private counselling either in-person or online.
Breathwork
Breathwork uses a conscious circular breathing technique to soothe and restore your mind, body and spirit. I offer re-birthing and conscious connected breathwork sessions to help you heal from trauma and reconnect with your higher self.
Tarot
Tarot readings can help you unpack and explore dynamics and energies that may be deterring you from living your best life. They can help you move forward, bringing you into a deeper alignment with your life’s purpose and true essence.
Reiki & Energy Healing
Reiki is the Japanese art of energy healing. I combine it with my own healing modalities like chakra healing that I’ve learned over 30 years of practice. It works by using the hands to pick up on subtle body energies and thought patterns and then ease these energy blockages, relieving stress and boosting well-being.

Hi, I’m Ginny from Leading Light Collective
I’ve always asked the big questions - “Who am I?”, “Why are we here?”, “What is my purpose?”, and “How can I share joy, peace and compassion?”. Figuring out how I can best serve others using my gifts has been a lifelong quest for me.
Self-inquiry has led me to experience life through many paths. I’ve been a party girl, a Tibetan Buddhist, a reiki master, a yogi, an astrologer, a breath worker and so much more.
Each path I have gone down has taught me exactly what I needed to know, and has given me the grace to move on to my next teacher.
Through my own journey, I know firsthand how valuable having someone to support you is. You want someone who has been there, who gets it. Equally important is being a part of a loving community - the vessel that holds you during your metamorphosis, while you shed your old self to reveal your enlightened nature.
Awakening can be uncomfortable - even downright terrifying. We often have to reach a crisis point before we’re willing to deal with our stuff.
The secret to getting through it? To choose to break through, rather than break down. To trust that our crisis is leading us in right direction - towards our highest, awakened state of being.
For some this can take just a few short sessions. For others, it may take years. Trusting the process is scary, but ultimately liberating. I offer you a leading light to guide you back to yourself.
Love, Ginny
Let the Elements Guide You
-
Fire.
The element of fire has long been associated with power, the creative imagination and transformation. If you are drawn to this element, it may mean it’s time for you to re-imagine your life, transmute stuck energy, and reclaim your inner strength. The tarot can help you do this.
-
Water.
Water shifts our emotions and energy, carrying it downstream. It cleanses and purifies our spirit, mind and body. If you are drawn to the element of water, it may mean you need to process some emotions. Counselling can help you do this.
-
Air.
Let the cleansing breath move through you. Air is the element of lightness and of ease. It helps you learn to trust deeply and let go, as it is the unseen element, keeping us alive moment by moment. Breathwork is the healing modality associated with this element.
-
Earth.
Solid, steady and grounding, the element of earth is the energy that grounds us to our planet. It is responsible for identifying the energy stores in the physical body that need to be freed. Reiki can help to shift these emotions and help you feel grounded and restored.
What My Clients Say
-
“In a world full of phony fads, media hype, virtual personas, positive thinkers, and personal brands – where everyone wants what they don’t have, nobody’s content to be who they are, and, more importantly, nobody’s willing to admit to any of that – women like Ginny are becoming more rare all the time.”
- Rachel
-
"I had a transformative experience during a counselling session. Ginny certainly has a gift—she listens to you and, without saying much, makes you see the obvious in what you're going through. It's as if she removes the mud from your eyes, allowing you to see clearly for yourself. She possesses the essential qualities needed to help someone: love and a unique light that she lends to you, helping you find your own light and illuminate your path."
- Ricardo Maniusis

“I have to say it was the best reading I've had, very spot on and it has helped me shift some things internally. I highly recommend seeing Ginny, a lovely friendly lady who makes you feel at home.”

Healing & Growth Articles
-
![blue mountains counselling]()
Psychotherapy may be the single most useful intervention of the last 200 years. It reveals the difficulties we face understanding ourselves, trusting others, communicating successfully, honouring our potential and feeling adequately serene, confident, authentic, direct and unashamed.
-
![holotropic breathwork]()
Moving from the physical shell to contemplate our emotional and psychological states we often adopt a stoic kind of thinking that belies what is really going on internally. In this regard, it takes more conscious effort to realise that we aren’t as unaffected by life events as we tell ourselves.
-
![spiritual healer sydney]()
My favourite saying is “You can only take others as far as you have taken yourself.” Let me tell you I have been there, I have fallen, I have died and I have resurrected again and again and again. And I will fall again before the illusion is over. Being gentle, forgiving and gracious with ourselves is one of the best things we can do to work through our pain
-
![tarot reading online]()
A tarot reading can be viewed as a collaborative process. The cards bring forth messages from the unconscious but it is a joint endeavour for us to unpack their meaning and discuss how this relates to your day to day life.
-
![online tarot course]()
In an age of great material access, we suffer dislocations from the energies of our deepest being and, in return, suffer emptiness, anomie, aimlessness—all sicknesses of the soul. While most therapists address behaviors, thought processes, and biology, would it not make more sense to ask where the energy has relocated?
-
![trauma therapy]()
We’ve been programmed evolutionarily for fight or flight. The problem with flight is that we tend to store intense emotions in our bodies.
-
![the lovers card meaning]()
Above a woman and a man we see the angel called Raphael, whose name translates into “God heals.” From this perspective, we can understand love as an attempt to rediscover the sense of bliss and oneness we first tasted in the womb. Immature love is found through infatuation, entanglement and codependency.
-
![magician tarot]()
The Magician card is the first in the major arcana, with the Fool card given the numbering zero being both the start of the soul’s journey and the end. It begins the first pairing, or polarity, between the masculine and feminine or yin and yang.
-
![tarot courses australia]()
Learning tarot is a wonderful way to understand yourself better as you recognise archetypal behaviours within yourself. It is also a great tool to exercise your psychic muscle as well as gift loved ones with readings.
-
![the hanged man tarot card meaning]()
In the tarot deck, The Hanging Man symbolises the importance of changing perspective and getting out of ego. The conscious mind can only take one so far. The paradox of the Hanged Man is that we gain control by letting go.
-
![womens retreat nsw]()
In one sense, the mess the world is in has been born from overdeveloping our egos and underdeveloping our psyches, or soul. As Carl Jung pointed out, balance is only to be found when we confront our shadow sides, individually & collectively.
-
![holotropic breathwork sydney]()
Medicating or incarcerating people with unresolved trauma has done little to reduce mental health illness or crime rates. Over the last two decades, new approaches have been explored.
-
![transpersonal counselling]()
Transpersonal is defined as areas of consciousness beyond the limits of personal identity. For millennia, indigenous cultures were connected to the larger rhythms of life and passed on their collective wisdom through storytelling. But since the age of enlightenment, the rational mind has usurped higher wisdom.
What Do You Need Right Now?
-
Inner peace
What are you holding onto that you need to let go of?
Feeling dis-ease is your body’s way of telling you that something needs to shift.
Cultivating a state of inner peace takes practice and patience, but it’s so worth it.
Energy Healing can help you let go of blockages in order to feel at ease again.
-
Purpose
Are you in need of some guidance around your life path?
If you’re struggling with a lack of direction, or feel that your daily life or work is lacklustre and unfulfilling, it’s time for a change.
Tarot can give you a sense of clarity and direction regarding your soul’s purpose, helping you live a life in alignment with your values and beliefs.
-
Self-Compassion & Self-Love
It can feel tempting to berate ourselves for what we think we’ve done wrong. But loving ourselves unconditionally allows the best side of us to come forward. Breathwork and counselling can help you bring a conscious, loving awareness into your day-to-day life, which will then ripple out into the rest of the world. Women’s Circles are a great way to connect with other women & feel you’re not alone in your struggles.
-
Presence
Feeling scattered, overwhelmed and like you’re on another plane of existence? I’ve got your back.
If you could use a little more mindful presence in your life, my breathwork service can help.
The process of healing can potentially be a slow one, but the important thing is to keep taking small steps forward.
-
Support with a relationship
Relationships are a vehicle for personal growth and development, a mirror to face and heal our own wounds. With the right support and loving awareness, your relationships will thrive. My approach to relationship counselling is which views the relationship as its own entity. In our work, we aim to create a nourishing container to nurture your relationship within.
-
Individuation
Are you beginning to get in touch with your higher self?
Do you require some guidance or mentoring to assist you on your individualisation journey?
I offer tarot development courses and mentorship programs, as well as psychic attunements, to help you hone your intuitive abilities and connect with your spirit.
The Shell Must Break Before The Bird Can Fly
- Alfred Tennyson
Many of the people I work with today are navigating crossroads moments and dealing with the tumult of being cracked open. The overculture tells us to tough it out, be self-reliant and stoic. Sadly, this often leads people to miss the overtures of the soul. It takes courage to reach out for help or guidance but in doing so you might find life dramatically opens up just as it did when I embraced my vocation as a spiritual healer here in Katoomba. The musician India Arie wrote the song “Break The Shell” to express this poetically.
