A little about my journey, and how I found my way here.

Hi, I’m Shanie

I live and work in Perth, Western Australia, and I'm passionate about supporting people to reconnect with themselves, explore what's possible and create meaningful change in their lives.

My work brings together Breathwork, Quantum Energy Healing, intuitive energy work and spiritual expansion. But my journey here wasn't exactly a straight line!

My own journey of healing

My journey into healing began long before I ever imagined doing this work professionally.

I first experienced Rebirthing Breathwork back in 1993, but at the time I wasn't quite ready. Instead, I explored other pathways, becoming attuned to Reiki, training in Pranic Healing and discovering meditation and other energetic practices.

I was drawn to understanding myself, supporting others and exploring what was possible beyond what we could see or explain.

My professional life initially took a very different direction. I began in the banking industry, eventually moving into disability support, where I spent over a decade working alongside people and their families. Later, I worked with the Department of Communities, supporting families navigating their own complex journeys.

Along the way came marriage, travel and motherhood — a journey that wasn't always easy, but one that changed me in ways I could never have anticipated.

I also experienced significant grief and loss, including the loss of my father and the babies my body couldn't carry. There were times when life felt flat, disconnected and without much direction.

Despite all the personal development and healing work I'd explored, I knew something was still missing.

Meeting My Body’s Stories

In 2014, I returned to Breathwork, and this time something clicked.

Through a series of sessions, I began to meet the stories my body had been holding — old childhood hurts, grief, limiting beliefs and patterns I hadn't even realised were shaping my life.

I began to understand that healing wasn't about thinking my way through everything or trying to fix myself. It was about creating the space to feel, release and reconnect.

Breathwork changed my life, and I knew I wanted to share this experience with others.

I went on to complete more than 450 hours of training over two years to become a Certified Shamanic Breathwork Facilitator, studying here in Perth with Claire Belton. I'm also a Professional Member and former Secretary of the Australian Breathwork Association.

With over 12 years of personal experience with Breathwork and more than six years of holding space for others, it continues to be a foundational part of my work.

Expanding into Quantum Energy Healing

My curiosity about energy and the unseen has always been part of my journey. As my own practice evolved, I felt drawn to explore this work more deeply.

I've now completed an intensive 10-month Quantum Energy Healing training, qualifying as a Quantum Architect and working with Genova Frequencies.

This training has expanded my understanding of energy, consciousness and the many layers that can influence how we experience ourselves and the world around us.

Through this work, I use frequency-based energy techniques to explore and shift energetic patterns, create space for release and support greater alignment and expansion.

It's been an incredibly transformative experience, not only in the work I offer others but also in my own personal growth, intuition and confidence.

I'm continually fascinated by what becomes possible when we move beyond what we already know and allow ourselves to explore something different.

And then there's spiritual expansion...

I believe we're never really finished growing, learning or discovering more about ourselves.

Alongside Breathwork and Quantum Energy Healing, I'm also a practitioner of the Umana Technique, which supports energetic activation, expanded awareness and spiritual exploration.

I'm particularly interested in the relationship between our physical experience, our energy and our connection to something greater than ourselves.

I love bringing these different approaches together, allowing each person and each session to be guided by what's needed in that moment.

My own journey of healing and self-discovery has never really stopped, and neither has my curiosity about what's possible.

Over the years, my work has continued to evolve, taking me beyond breathwork and into the fascinating world of energy healing, frequency work and spiritual expansion.

If there's one thing I've learned through my own journey, it's that healing doesn't need to be forced.

I'm not someone who believes in pushing people through an experience or telling them what they should be feeling. I believe in creating a safe, supported space where you can meet yourself exactly where you are.

My approach is intuitive, grounded and heart-led. There's no one-size-fits-all approach, no scripts and no expectation that you need to have everything figured out before you arrive.

Sometimes big shifts happen. Sometimes it's about slowing down, releasing a little of what you've been carrying and finding some space to breathe.

Both matter.

I continue to do my own personal work, because I don't believe we ever reach a point where we have it all figured out. I'm human too, and I think there's something important about walking this path alongside the people I support.

I'd love to welcome you

Whether you're feeling stuck, navigating a life transition, curious about energy work or simply feeling called to explore something more, there's space for you here.

Through individual and group Breathwork, Quantum Energy Healing and the Umana Technique, I offer different ways to explore, reconnect and expand.

You don't need to know exactly what you're looking for. Sometimes the first step is simply being curious.

I'd be honoured to walk alongside you.

With love,

Shanie 💜

  • “Wow!! Just had my second quantum healing with Shanie - she is the real deal incredible!! When we were clearing I was getting physically hot and cold at the same time, thirsty and hungry and all sorts of very strong sensations as my energy and body was shifting. My body is feeling so much more space again. Thank you Shanie - you are very gifted. Highly recommend.”

  • “The work Shanie does is truly amazing! I've attended a handful of group breathwork sessions over the past 18 months, and each time I've gained insights about myself that wouldn't be possible otherwise. It's always a surprise and feels deeply healing. Shanie holds space in a way that allows you to feel safe to open up and meet buried emotions, old wounds and the higher self.”

  • " Shanie is such a lovely person. She carries such beautiful energy and really helped me to reconnect to my own core energy in a time where I felt completely lost. I did a session with her in her beautiful studio and she made me feel safe and helped me to go really deep. Absolutley amazing! Highly recommend. Thank you for doing such amazing work Shanie”
