Transpersonal Alchemy

What is Transpersonal Alchemy?

  • A Transpersonal Alchemist supports transformation at the levels of mind, body, and deeper self. The work recognises that healing is not only psychological but also somatic, energetic, and connected to a person’s greater potential. 
  • Transpersonal alchemy focuses on the patterns that shape a person’s life; emotional habits, nervous-system responses, inherited imprints, and early childhood conditioning, and works to transmute these into stability, clarity, and alignment with one’s authentic nature. It is a process that honours both the personal story and the wider field of meaning that surrounds each human being, enabling you to become who you always were meant to be.
  •  “Transpersonal alchemy is the art of guiding the individual beyond their personal story into the deeper layers of consciousness, using the ancient process of transformation through alchemy, to turn the base material of old patterns into the gold of authentic self realisation.” Claire Graves

Who are these sessions for?

These sessions are for people who feel ready for a deeper kind of change, those who sense that their patterns, emotions, or bodily responses are asking to shift, but who haven’t been able to reach that shift through talking or mindset work alone. They suit anyone who feels they want to work more deeply, or are stuck, disconnected, or repeatedly pulled into the same emotional or relational loops, and who wants to understand what sits beneath those patterns. This work is especially supportive for people carrying childhood imprints, long-held protective habits, or a nervous system that feels overwhelmed, shut down, or on constant alert. It also resonates with those drawn to inner transformation in a symbolic or spiritual way, who recognise the language of alchemy and rebirth within themselves. 

Above all, these sessions are for individuals who want healing to unfold through embodied process; steady, grounded, and true to who they are becoming. 

How I work

These sessions are for anyone wishing to deeper kind of change, those that sense that their patterns, emotions, or bodily responses are asking to shift, but who haven’t been able to reach that place through talking or mindset work alone. They suit anyone who feels they want to work more deeply, or are stuck, disconnected, or repeatedly pulled into the same emotional or relational loops, and who wants to understand what sits beneath those patterns. 


This work is especially supportive for people carrying childhood imprints, long-held protective habits, or a nervous system that feels overwhelmed, shut down, or on constant alert. It also resonates with those drawn to inner transformation in a symbolic or spiritual way, who recognise the language of alchemy and rebirth within themselves. 


Above all, these sessions are for individuals who want healing to unfold through embodied process; steady, grounded, and true to who they are becoming.  


My work follows an alchemical arc: a living process of dissolution, transformation, and renewal. Each stage mirrors the ancient rhythm of death, birth, and rebirth, not as dramatic events, but as subtle shifts within the body, the psyche, and the nervous system. Old patterning is met and softened, allowing what no longer serves to fall away, and makes space for the gold of deeper self-knowing to emerge.


The process is somatic and embodied. I attune to the way your system communicates through breath, sensation, sound, and movement. The body becomes the guide, revealing where the nervous system holds old stories, childhood imprints, and long-established survival patterns. This work is not about fixing. It is about creating the conditions in which healing arises naturally through; presence, curiosity, and grounded contact with what is ready to change.


Psychological understanding and therapeutic insight support the process. Together, we bring awareness to the inner child, the protective strategies that once kept you safe, and the layers of identity built around past experience. As these patterns unfold, they begin to reorganise from within. What dissolves is the “lead”, the outdated beliefs and embodied habits that have shaped your life. What emerges is the “gold”, clarity, coherence, and a deeper connection to your authentic self.


Every session is paced, grounded, and responsive to your unique system. The work invites you back into yourself, step by step, until a more authentic, true and spacious version of you becomes possible.
