Meet Brearne

Hello!

My name is Brearne, most people call me Brea (pronounced ‘Bree’, like pea).

I am a Hypnotherapist, Coach and Ceremonialist, as well as a daughter, sister, auntie and friend. Alongside this, I am also a qualified Early Childhood & Primary Educator, with over 11 years of experience across education, therapeutic spaces, and early intervention. My work in Early Childhood Early Intervention (ECEI) allows me to support children and families in meaningful, developmentally informed ways, bringing together emotional, behavioural and holistic perspectives.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a deep curiosity about people,  observing both my own behaviour and the ways others move through the world.

Two questions have stayed with me:

What makes us who we are?

And

Can we change the way we react?

As someone who, for a long time, felt lost and utterly frustrated by the way I reacted to situations, I made it my mission to meet the people and find the ways to answer the two questions above.

Here is what I’ve come to believe (please note this is my belief)

We are a collection of our experiences: what we’ve lived, what we’ve learned, and what we’ve chosen (consciously or unconsciously) to believe and remember. This shapes who we are, and how we respond to the world around us.

Through my own journey, I devoted myself to understanding these layers.

Three main practices that support me (and still do) are:

    • Silence inc. meditation
    • Movement/ love/ trust/ discipline with the mind and body
    • Working with practitioners who can safely hold me while I unpack who I am


Through this, I found my answer: yes, we can change the way we react. And that changes everything. (How damn good!)

Today, my work is an integration of all of this – supporting both adults and children to better understand themselves, their behaviours, and their inner worlds. Whether I’m working with clients in a therapeutic setting or supporting families through early intervention, my intention is the same: to create safe, grounded spaces where you can explore the layers that make you ‘you’.

When I am not seeing clients, I enjoy cooking with love, hopes and dreams (I really dislike following a recipe) walks, pilates, yoga, markets, meditation, drinking matcha and cacao, picking flowers, eating Loco Love, deep conversation with friends, being near or in oceans and getting my surfboard into the ocean. (This is my newer rookie hobby – all tips and hints appreciated!)

If you’ve found your way here, I’m really glad you have. Welcome! 

Love, Brearne (Brea).
