Specialising in women’s well-being through all phases of life!
Shekinah is committed to bringing change and transformation to her clients in the most effective and nurturing ways possible. She combines some of the very best tools and techniques acquired from decades of study, research, life experience and embodied practice. These holistic counselling sessions can bring you back into balance with yourself and your life.
Shekinah believes that support should focus on treating the whole person and acknowledging their interconnectedness between body, mind and soul. Understanding that disharmony in any area; whether it’s emotional, spiritual, physical or mental, can impact on a person’s overall well-being in every area of life. She will focus on more than just your symptoms, or isolated issues, collaborating with you to find an integrated approach to your social, physical and spiritual health.
Using evidence-based therapies which can include mindfulness, stress management, emotional support, practical help and subconscious rewiring of out-dated patterns, she will address the underlying imbalances to create a personalised plan that will align with your unique needs.
Matrescence Support
Shekinah helps mothers navigate the profound emotional, physical and social transformation into motherhood. Validating and supporting your birthing experience and holding space for complex feelings (like joy, grief and anxiety) that can present themselves as we meet new demands and align with a new sense of self. From setting boundaries, to prioritising self-care, redefining goals and reconnecting with your body. This period of significant personal change is about understanding you as a ‘whole woman’, through holistic care and balanced support.

Who am I?
My name is Shekinah Leigh and I run my own business in Northern NSW and on the Gold Coast called “Beautifully Wyld”.
I am a certified Counsellor, Marriage Celebrant, Massage Therapist, Shamanic Practitioner, Yoga Teacher (inc pregnancy and post natal), Childbirth and Young Girls ‘Coming of Age’ Mentor, and Retreat Facilitator, with many years of experience guiding Women’s Circles, Rites of Passage Rituals, Sacred Ceremony and Birth Work.
I also have over 20 years experience as a Kahuna Bodyworker & Massage Therapist, providing Pregnancy and Post Natal treatments. I have seen first hand, how accumulated trauma and emotional overwhelm can effect the body, impeding optimal birth outcomes and slowing down healthy recovery.
I believe that transformation comes from within and I love to help people become more conscious of their personal story, supporting a deeper exploration and awareness of self, so that each person can live the life that brings them joy and ease, in alignment with their Soul’s purpose!
Counselling
Counselling is a collaborative process where we work together to explore your concerns, identify your goals, and develop strategies to help you move forward in positive ways. It’s a safe and supportive space for you to express yourself and gain clarity.
My role is to listen, provide guidance, and help you develop skills to navigate any challenges. Achieving greater personal potential, enhancing self-awareness and cultivating personal growth. Together, we can improve coping skills and find solutions that
feel right for you.

Shekinah's Birth Story
After the birth of my own child, over 19 years ago, I realised that something wasn’t quite right. No-one had ever talked about the feelings of frustration, guilt and shame that I would feel after my birth didn’t go to plan after a cascade of unwanted interventions.
It took me 5 years before I understood that I had been traumatised by my experience and it was only then that I went on a quest to heal my Birthing Journey. One of the biggest things I learned was that it can take a Mother at least 2 years to fully integrate a natural, happy and healthy birth, but it can take so much longer if your experience felt challenging or traumatic in any way.
After many years of teaching and embodying this work, in collaboration with Rachel Di Re (The integrated Midwife), we have created a beautiful and powerful in-depth Birthing Program called ‘The Integrated Birthing Journey”. Formed from years of research, practical information, specialty teachings, and personal experience (both professional and private), it provides holistic support, encouraging a deeper understanding of birth as a ‘rite of passage’ to support women and mothers to embrace their birthing journey.
