ABOUT ME
Hi, I am Lexi Oatley, an EFT Practitioner, Holistic Therapist, Somatic Trauma Informed Coach, Meditation Teacher, Breathwork Practitioner former Midwifery Sister and Proud Mum. More importantly, I have been where you are right now.
Born in Asia and spending many of my formative years abroad before moving back to the UK I had a lifestyle that many would consider privileged. While there was a lot of love it was not without its significant challenges and it was where I first experienced addiction and its effects on all those around it.
Due to my early conditioning and despite wanting something very different for myself I found myself in more than one highly dysfunctional relationship. It was in my late teens where I first experienced anxiety and depression, however my approach and attitude towards it has changed dramatically . With time, support and experience I learned that it was not others that I had to prioritize but myself and therefore the person that needed help the most was me and so my journey began.
In time, I became a mother. As mentioned, my pregnancy, labour, and birth were difficult, triggering a series of overwhelming post-natal emotions. It was a tough period for both me and my son. Shortly after his birth my eyes were opened to the years of emotional domestic abuse that I had endured and my reality was shaken to its core. With my son as my guiding light I found the courage to leave and spent many years working on myself and my own healing and learning not to live in fear and all of its effects.
I share this with you because, over the last 30 years, I’ve done extensive work on myself. Learning not just to come to terms with life’s challenges but finding growth through them has been transformative for me and I am now the happiest, most resilient and healthiest in mind, body, spirit and emotion than I have ever been. I am proof that there is always hope and with determination and the right support and guidance a new way of life is possible.
My life is now one of service, and I feel honoured by the experiences that have shaped me. I focus on offering guidance and loving support to those dealing with challenges related to pregnancy, birth, depression, and anxiety. With a ‘big picture’ awareness of life, my healing practices—including EFT, Somatic Trauma Informed Coaching, Reiki, Breathwork, Meditation and Naturopathy . I have used each and every one of these methods myself so I truly believe this is where help can be found. I am here to walk this path with you.
