Profile
MICHELA F. D’ADDARIO
MINDSET SPECIALIST and QUANTUM HEALING PRACTITIONER
After completing her BA in Psychology, Michela commenced her journey as a psychotherapist in the mid 80′s, assisting clients who were psychologically distressed because of adult and childhood trauma. This gave her a solid grounding and expertise in working with a wide variety of issues and concerns. She witnessed first hand the effects of stress and trauma and the critical importance of self care and a holistic approach in addressing anxiety, depression and relationship issues.
At the age of 22, Michela also became one of the first Australian women to teach the psychological and physical aspects of women’s self defence and went on to successfully empower thousands of women and girls in the art of physical, emotional and spiritual assertion and confidence. Martial Arts led to a greater understanding of the powerful relationship between thoughts and chi energy and the importance of expanded awareness.
Michela continued to explore her interest in spirit and movement by completing a four year teaching diploma in Dru Yoga. Her interest in the mind-body connection and it’s role in healing, resulted in her completing a Diploma in Therapeutic Massage. She has also trained as an ‘Angel Intuitive’ with world renowned psychotherapist and metaphysician Doreen Virtue, PhD., who works with the angelic realms.
Creative Evolution Consultancies, established in early 2000, was one of the first services in Australia dedicated specifically to assisting people to create a life based on fulfilling success and life balance. Michela coined the term ‘Creative Life Planning’ and was told by numerous naysayers in the business world that ‘people would never be interested in such a service’. She trusted her intuition that said people were yearning for greater meaning and fulfilment in their lives. In September of 2000 the phenomenon of Life Coaching, and an accompanying increased desire in people to live a better life, hit Australia in a big way and Michela was once again proven to be ahead of her time.
Quantum Healing Practitioner
Michela has been described as a healer whose ‘heart has eyes’ and she facilitates deep and profound healings of the Soul. Every healer who achieves remarkable results has her divine allies. Michela utilises angelic quantum healing frequencies in her mind-body therapies, with over 90% of her clients experiencing rapid and lasting healing results. Typically a client who arrives dull with emotional pain, leaves with sparkling eyes. Many issues are resolved within hours of working with Michela. For those clients needing to work a little longer with Michela, the achievement of their healing goals is ‘not a matter of if, but when’.
Michela also continues to provide psychotherapy and counselling services to those rebuilding their life after significant trauma or loss. Her holistic and unique approach has resulted in clients achieving outstanding outcomes, often far exceeding their expectations and the expectations of loved ones and referring services. Many clients are now seeking Michela out to eradicate the need for anti-depressant medication, clear alcohol, sugar and nicotine addictions and heal their bodies and psyches of the subconscious contribution to their health issues.
Michela believes it is our birthright to be happy and at peace within and is passionate about assisting people to find their wings as quickly as possible. Her approach is summed up by two of her favourite quotes one from Gerard O. Grow: “The task of the best teacher is to balance the difficult juggling act of becoming vitally, vigorously, creatively, energetically, and inspiringly unnecessary”, and the other from Abraham Lincoln: “The best way to predict your future is to create it!”
Her own personal healing and discovery journey also resulted in Michela crossing paths with mentors and healers who inspired her to commit to her emotional, spiritual and creative evolution. She has studied and practiced the Healing Tao, Chi Kung, Buddhism and Zen Buddhism, Goddess Spirituality, Angelic Healing, Astrology, Numerology, the Chakra System and Metaphysics. Michela is currently enjoying completing a 12 month certificate course in drawing and painting, with highly respected art educator, author and award winning artist Cindy Wider, of ‘Paint in Your Pyjamas’ fame.
