A path of healing, initiation, and returning to myself.
My name is Nasreen Geloo, and since 2010, I have worked as an Occupational Therapist specialising in mental health, across acute services and teletherapy. Alongside my clinical work, I trained as a somatic body coach and in compassionate focused approaches, deepening my understanding of the body, trauma, and the pathways of emotional healing.
For most of my life, I felt different — a sense of being slightly out of place in the world, as though I was speaking a language no one else understood. I carried a deep sensitivity, a deep awareness, and a deep connection to the spiritual world.
From a young age, I could sense energy. I would sense what people were feeling or thinking, and often what they would say didn’t match what I picked up. This led me to feel confused or doubt myself and think I must be wrong. I later realised, what I was sensing was often the truth. I also found others expectations and the weight of being “who I should be” slowly cover the truth of who I was. Like many of us, I learnt to override my needs, silence my intuition, and adapt to environments that didn’t feel safe for me or where I wasn’t truly seen, understood or valued.
For most of my life, I carried many of the ‘not enoughs’ — not good enough, not pretty enough, not smart enough. I learnt to over‑give and over‑compensate just to feel worthy. I had learnt to people please and avoid conflict to keep the peace. I had this deep fear that if I stand up for myself, people will leave. I came to understand only later how deep my abandonment wound was.
My spiritual and healing journey began in 2015, after leaving an abusive marriage and meeting a soul connection that catalysed my spiritual awakening and deep layers of healing — an eleven‑year heroine’s journey into the depths of my psyche and my soul. Many years later, another deep soul bond showed me where I still needed to heal, especially childhood wounds and grounded me back into my body. It felt like one connection opened me up to the spirit world and the other with embodying it all.
These eleven years took me through many dark nights of the soul. There were years where I felt like I had lost myself, not realising that this loss was actually the dismantling of an identity built on survival, so that who I truly was could emerge. There were long periods where the only guidance I had was the inner guidance to “trust the process”. I didn’t understand it then, but I was entering a descent, similar to the Persephone archetype. It was a stripping away of everything that wasn’t truly mine: identities, roles, illusions, and coping mechanisms etc.
I truly believe this path also unfolded as a shamanic initiation, not only because I went through unexplained physical symptoms and, when medical routes could not offer answers, I was thrown into the deep end and had to learn how to heal myself, but also because my guidance came directly from the spirit world through my intuition and I learnt how to become a bridge between the spiritual and physical planes of existence. I understand this was necessary so I could fine tune my intuition and my energy healing abilities. Little did I know then that this was shaping me for the work I do now.
Over these years, I have healed many childhood wounds, ancestral wounds, other‑timeline wounds, whether understood as past lives or co‑running timelines that needed to be closed. My path has felt like a deep liberation, an opportunity to free myself from every wound and every layer of conditioning that never truly belonged to me. Very much in the way Carl Jung described individuation, it has been a returning to my own true self.
A central part of my journey has also been feeling the original split between the masculine and feminine, and devoting myself to healing, reclaiming, and embodying both energies in their truest form. I’ve always from a young age, had this ancient knowing of the love, the oneness, the divinity that lives between the masculine and the feminine, the way they complement each other, although at the start of my journey I did doubt whether union like this even existed.
It took me years to realise that my journey was asking me to trust myself.
To receive myself.
To own my path.
To become my own inner authority.
At its core, my path has been that of a seeker of truth, a path of gnosis, of direct knowing, of remembering, through the wisdom that comes from within rather than from outside. The moment i understood this and myself, things started to change externally. I understood that no one outside me could ever know my path better than I do. That’s why I work in a way that empowers you to trust yourself and your own inner guidance.
My way of working comes from lived and embodied experience and not only through formal training. It is deeply sacred to me. That’s why I’m being so raw and honest here.
I share my journey to inspire and connect, human to human, soul to soul.
Because healing happens in the presence of truth, safety, and resonance.
And I hope that as you read my words, something in you feels seen.
Warmest love
