Bella Aurora Starr – Holistic Counsellor & Somatic Therapist – Palmview, Sunshine Coast

Welcome. The holistic counselling and somatic therapy that I offer is an integrative approach to healing – working with your mind, body, emotions and spirit. I offer you support and guidance so that you can become more of who you really are and transform the parts of you holding you back in life. You will learn skills to regulate your nervous system, presence and heal parts of you with love and compassion, let go of the past, and connect with who you really are. Sessions are empowering, and I am here to support you and facilitate healing. It is you who will heal yourself and grow in awareness as we work together. I am also here to coach you to move towards your goals in life.

If you would like to release anxiety and trauma held in the body, I can guide and support you to do this safely. If you would like to create healthier relationships I am here to support that. If you would like to be more authentically you I am here to guide and coach you.

Trauma is held in the body and that is why we work with the ‘felt sense’ of the body – feeling the sensations and allowing it to move through. I have learned many modalities and tools, however the main ones I use are embodiment meditation (which also involves a kind of somatic experiencing as trauma comes up), internal family systems therapy (IFS), and many holistic counselling techniques. This is not your typical talk therapy – it is a much more creative and intuitive approach, and can include spiritual healing.

If you would like to experience inner transformation then you are ready to embark on a journey of self discovery. If you are willing to do some work then you can create change in your life. This “work” may be challenging at times, but you will also feel relief, clarity and even bliss. Be brave, take good care of yourself and life can feel better. Bravery doesn’t mean you aren’t scared or vulnerable, bravery means you feel vulnerable but you still take action to help yourself. You may need to confront painful things, but I will be with you so you will feel safe. You don’t need to suffer alone, and you can break free from suffering. If you are here, then you are already looking for healing, so I invite you to trust that and take the next step.

As you heal, you will feel more embodied and become more and more authentic. The masks that you have adorned to fit in and adapt to life will slowly begin to fall away or transform. And as you get in touch with your soul, and cultivate a strong connection, you won’t be driven so much by anxious thoughts or the constant chatter in your mind. You will be more present, aware, compassionate, understanding and focused on what you want to create. This kind of work requires dedication, and it is real. It’s not fluffy or woowoo, although I imagine to some it appears that way – you will soon find out it is something you can experience directly for yourself and doesn’t require me to convince you of anything.

Welcome brave soul. I invite you to take action now, there is no need to delay any longer. You can move through what holds you back and step into your power. You can change your life. Lets do this together! For deep healing, and lasting change holistic counselling and somatic therapy is the best. I offer other healing services which you can experience as standalone services or alongside holistic counselling. They are complementary to each other.

Shamanic healing is for those who need deep healing, and are wanting the practitioner to do the healing work for them. Traumatic events, or deep emotional pain can cause soul loss.

I also gather information that you need for your life now, extract negative energies and bring you energies that you need in your life now. Essentially I am working at the soul level.

Sacred Circle for Soulful Women

Sacred Circle for Soulful Women is an empowering space for spiritual women to connect with supportive and like-minded women. We share from our hearts, engage in sacred practices and meditate together in this safe space.

Gathering in circle was practiced by our ancestors and is deeply nourishing.  This ancient tradition has been revived and I am honoured to share these practices with you in my unique way.

I have been running these circles since 2019 – in Brisbane and Gold Coast. I will be starting these on the Sunshine Coast soon.
