Founded by Vimi – Mental Health & Empowerment Coach

 

 

At Harmony and Rise, I offer more than coaching — I offer a space for healing, clarity, and reconnection with your inner self.

With over 15 years of experience in mental health, mindfulness, trauma recovery, and empowerment, I’ve guided individuals across all walks of life — from young children to adults — through deep transformation, emotional resilience, and self-discovery.

I’m not just a coach. I’m also a mindfulness practitioner, trauma facilitator, theta healing practitioner, author, podcast speaker, and a lifelong student of what it means to truly come home to yourself.

 

My Approach

I work at the intersection of mental health, holistic healing, and empowerment. Whether you’re navigating grief, burnout, trauma, anxiety, or simply feeling disconnected from your purpose, my goal is to help you find your centre again — gently, honestly, and at your own pace.

I’ve supported individuals living with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, autism, strokes, dementia, and anxiety disorders. I’ve worked in care home settings, with children as young as four, and with women reclaiming self-worth after years of internalised silence. My coaching combines mindfulness, somatic awareness, shadow work, and storytelling — because healing is never one-size-fits-all.

My Story

My journey has been shaped by personal loss and deep emotional rebuilding. Through those experiences, I developed a strong intuitive connection and an inner guidance system that has carried me through some of life’s hardest seasons. That’s what I now share with others — how to create a safe space within, even when the world feels unsafe or chaotic.

You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need a place to begin — and someone who knows how to hold that space.

 

My Mission

 

To create safe, sacred spaces where individuals can heal, grow, and rise — no matter where they’re starting from.

Whether you're here because you're grieving, burned out, feeling stuck, or just want to reconnect with yourself — you are welcome here. Let’s explore what healing can look like when it’s done gently, holistically, and in your own time.

Life is like a Russian doll. Layer upon layer we carry versions of ourselves shaped by trauma, hurt, betrayal and protection. However deep within, at the very centre lies the smallest doll - our purest essence, our inner spark. Our journey is not to become something new, but to peel back each shell comfortably, until we return home to who we have always been -

Our authentic self.
