Previously, Ara spent over 20 years studying and working with a variety of healing modalities including Reiki, Spiritual surgery, Theta healing and Shamanic healing practices.

From this experience, she has been gifted, and has developed a method of healing called Visionary Healing. This modality is a unique healing approach that combines energy healing, intuitive healing, and artistic vision.

Usually a session lasts about an hour. How many sessions you need will depend on the issue you want to address.

In-person sessions take place in Ara’s healing room with a beautiful view of the sea and Kapiti Island. Remote healings through zoom are also available.

Holding a safe, respectful, empowering and nurturing space is very important to Arathena. You will remain fully clothed and seated during a session and it will not require any physical touch.

Ara will talk with you about your issue or concern, she will then connect with divine intelligence and tune into your issue to find the root causes. Muscle testing is used to help you get a sense of confirmation around this. Arathena receives strong visual images representing the core of your issue or trauma, and she also feels it on an energetic level. She will then work with divine intelligence to clear the core of your issue. She will use a variety of techniques to do this depending on what is needed, and will typically get your verbal consent to release the energy.

When the root cause has cleared, any feelings, beliefs and behaviours sitting on top of the issue will also clear, giving the potential for profound and tangible shifts in your life. Arathena works with core (family and present), genetic and ancestral lines, soul and historic planes. This includes work with past lives, when necessary, as sometimes we may have issues that have their roots in a past life or that have come down through a family line. Often we are not even aware of these beliefs on a conscious level, but they are still impacting our behaviours and choices.

During Visionary Healings it is not necessary to discuss past traumas (if you’re not comfortable), as Ara can sense and work directly with the energy involved. This is very helpful as it means that you can heal from a traumatic event without the potential of re-traumatizing yourself by talking about it. It is also helpful because oftentimes we are not even aware of what has caused any given issue.

Visionary Healing helps people to resolve their emotional, physical, and spiritual struggles and to attain a better quality of life on all levels.

Visionary Healing can work in conjunction with mainstream medicine and other healing modalities. It will help to resolve the underlying cause of conditions rather than just managing symptoms.

My own life journey has led me to healing.

I was diagnosed with both chronic lifelong depression and also with a debilitating auto-immune condition. I had ongoing low energy, crippling physical symptoms, and a severely restricted diet due to food intolerances. I was in poverty due to not being able to work from illness and I had a series of failed relationships. For many years I was blocked creatively and was unable to paint.

Through my own personal healing journey I have radically shifted the quality of my life and well being, on many levels.

I am now mentally and physically well. I no longer have any signs of depression and no signs of physical illness. I have lots of energy, I can eat whatever I like and I feel well. I am living a happy and fulfilling life. I’m in a loving, healthy relationship and I live in a beautiful beachfront property. I have a fulfilling and rewarding career and I am also part of an art collective and studio in Paekakariki from which I both create and sell work.

All of these life changes are a direct result from the ongoing Visionary Healing that I have done. I am immensely grateful for these healing tools in my own life. I’m honoured and grateful for the improvements in the lives of those I've had the opportunity to work with.

My current rate for Visionary Healing is NZD 100 per hour. If this is beyond your means, please talk to me, and we will see what we can work out.

I thoroughly recommend Arathena and the healing I have experienced with her. After just my second healing with Arathena, I am experiencing feelings of groundedness I've not felt before and an opening inside myself I have until now been too fearful to even consider allowing. I feel quietly enthralled at what feels like true and deep healing of issues I have been struggling with for years. I feel lifted. I have felt a real release from some of my physical, mental and emotional burdens after having my healings with Arathena. I am so grateful for her sharing her gift of Visionary Healing and the holistic healing effect I am experiencing. I am moved by Arathena's dedication to and respect for my healing journey. I feel safe, cared for and deeply respected by Arathena when in her beautiful healing space, and I fully trust her with my Self and this journey.

I have had numerous healing sessions with Arathena and I am in awe of her gentle, caring and compassionate way of working. She holds space beautifully and creates such a safe space for healing. Through these healings I have had major shifts in my life. Many things that used to trigger me, now don’t bother me at all. She has such a gift which I am thoroughly grateful for. I highly recommend Arathena.

I have done healing work with Arathena for several years. Over the last 25 years I have also seen & known dozens of other healers. Arathena is by far the most insightful, powerful healer I have ever worked with. She sees (and removes) things I've spent decades struggling with. Her Visionary Healing is unparalleled.

From the moment that I walked into Arathena's gorgeous healing room I felt safe and completely held. Over the next hour Arathena released some of my extremely unhelpful and damaging patterns that had mainly derived from trauma when I was a baby. Having these old patterns released felt like a heavy shroud had been lifted from me and I have been feeling a lot lighter and freer ever since. It has been over a week since my healing, and everyday I feel increased energy and a general wellness that I have not felt for some time. I can't wait to have another session with Arathena to see what happens next. She is an extremely gifted healer that we are very blessed to have practising here on the coast. I can not recommend her enough!
