About Under The Ash Tree

'For some people, small beautiful events are what life is all about. - Doctor Who'

Welcome to Under the Ash Tree.

I am Ash, a down to earth Holistic Counsellor, Yoga Teacher and Reiki Practitioner based in the rural area of Berry Springs NT.

My journey of healing that has led me to discovering a passion for holistic counselling and holistic practices became deeper when I moved to Darwin NT.

Originally, I was raised in the beautiful area of Hervey Bay, surrounded by the ocean, land and sky. I had always felt a deep connection to nature and the spirit that lives within.

At the age of 20, I decided to relocate from my hometown to Darwin NT, which was the starting point of journeying through mind, body, and soul, healing myself spiritually, mentally, and physically.

I can recall, after settling into my new job and routine, sitting in my living room, just simply thinking about beginning a reiki journey. Only a short time after, by coincidence I would meet my mentors, guides and now family and begin a three year path of learning Reiki.

Between learning the three levels of Reiki, I have sat in circle with woman and shared in healing. Assisted in healing workshops and experienced crystal healing workshops. Birthed my own medicine drum under the guidance of shaman healers.

I then discovered a deep passion for mental health and well-being, which took me on a path to study and obtain my Masters in Holistic Counselling.

After the completion of my study, I chose to take a small break to focus on putting my energy into building my home and furthering my own personal journey.

Working and living in the rural community has opened my heart to wanting to share my skills with others, I am passionate about bringing healing and counselling to the community.

With a love for nature, an understanding of daily struggles, I have created a safe and open space to empower others in discovering balance within themselves on all levels, mind, body and spirit.
