Tarot, Coaching & Mentoring.
Hi I'm Michelle...
Let me share where "Black Swann" originates from. My maternal family name is 'Swann,' and navigating through a challenging environment, I was often labelled the 'Black Sheep.' Through that journey, I learned to embrace my uniqueness and transformed that experience into strength. I evolved from being a 'people pleaser' to someone who stands firm against manipulation, recognising this pattern as I moved forward into future relationships. (A 'Black Swan event' offers an intriguing perspective—check out my blogs for deeper insights).
After my second abusive marriage ended, I took control of my life. I pursued a degree in Social Science while representing myself in court against my ex-husband. This experience kept me grounded and focused on what truly matters. Following a successful legal resolution, I embarked on a Master's degree in Psychology. My passion for people is rooted in my desire to help others and tackle challenges head-on.
Having lived in two other European countries and being a dedicated single mother to five children while overcoming family ostracism, I learned invaluable lessons. I realized I can't fix people; I can only support them on their journey if they choose to seek help. This understanding has granted me significant insight into generational traumas, relationship dynamics, boundaries, healing, and fostering personal authenticity—both personally and anthropologically.
My perspective on the world has evolved significantly from my youthful beliefs. With this newfound clarity, I recognize my inner strength and aim to advocate for others witnessing similar transformations. In my upcoming book, 'We have always had the Power,' I delve deeper into the psychological science underpinning these insights.
I bring over 30 years of experience as a healer, intuitive, and an unofficial 'agony aunt.'
I possess a natural ability to read and feel emotions and situations, and I consistently work on my self-development to ensure I offer a reliable quality service. My mission is to empower and provide clarity during life's challenging moments.
My healing background includes being a Reiki Teacher, specializing in Magnet Therapy, Crystals, Colour Therapy, and Anxiety Coaching.
My work not only offers empathic understanding and insight but also provides substantial comfort and inspiration. My approach is more hands-on compared to traditional coaching, allowing me to directly share observations to empower you to take meaningful action, add value to your life, and equip you with essential mental tools.
Sessions are flexible and will be completely guided by you.
My academic credentials (BA Hons Social Science, MSc Psychology) offer me profound insight into the human mind and its impact on social interactions, relationships, and our reactions to different situations.
I am a trained anxiety coach, providing one-to-one sessions that empower you to overcome this debilitating condition.
As a survivor of abuse, I offer one-on-one sessions focused on recognizing signs of abuse and understanding its implications, as well as strategies to escape the situation and thrive afterwards.
