About Me…

Hi, I’m Desley

As an Advanced EFT Practitioner and Jungian Dream Coach, I bring dream work and EFT Tapping together to help you explore the wisdom within your dreams, to gently work with the emotions they awaken, and to integrate their insights into your waking life.

For decades, my life’s work has been about holding space empowering others to heal, grow and transform. It is my passion.

I began my journey in the classroom as a teacher, where I discovered the magic of human potential and growth. This evolved into counselling, where I spent time supporting mothers through the tender complexities of nurturing their babies.

Over the years, my path continued to evolve through mindfulness, dream work and EFT Tapping. As a mindfulness practitioner, I discovered the value of slowing down, becoming present and creating space to notice what is happening within.

Through Jungian dream work, I discovered how dreams can open a doorway into the deeper parts of ourselves. I am passionate about exploring this rich inner world and discovering the feelings, patterns, needs and possibilities that may not yet be conscious. I record my dreams most days and take time to process what they awaken within me, integrating their wisdom into my waking life. For me, dream work is a beautiful pathway towards greater self-awareness, wholeness and connection with the deeper wisdom within.

Around twenty years ago, I discovered EFT Tapping—a gentle yet powerful way of working with emotions. EFT taught me that insight is only part of the journey. When we can gently soften the emotional charge around what we discover, we create space for new awareness, perspectives and choices to emerge. I saw the power of this in my classroom, as children learned to calm themselves, settle their emotions and return to learning with greater ease and joy.

Over time, EFT became a natural companion to my dream work. I discovered that tapping could help my clients (and me), beyond simply understanding a dream, to feeling into its deeper message, gently processing the emotions it awakened, and integrating its wisdom more fully into my life. This is where my passion for bringing dreams and EFT together was born.

Each chapter of my journey has taught me something different, but together they have led me to a deeper understanding: true transformation comes when we learn to listen to the whole self—not just the thoughts and stories of the conscious mind, but also our emotions, our body, our intuition and the deeper wisdom within us.

In our fast-paced, constantly connected world, slowing down and listening within can feel almost countercultural. Yet when we create that space, something important happens. We begin to hear the quieter voice beneath the noise—the part of us that may know, more deeply than our busy minds, what we need and where we are being called to grow. It is what Eckhart Tolle describes as entering the “Now”; that timeless space of Presence that becomes available when we step beyond the constant chatter of the thinking mind. In this space, we can become more deeply connected to ourselves, to our inner wisdom and to the quiet knowing that is often difficult to hear when life is moving at full speed.

Bringing EFT Tapping and Jungian dream work together feels like a natural evolution of everything I have learned and experienced to date. It has inspired me to create a space where you can explore the wisdom of your dreams, gently work with what emerges, and discover what becomes possible when insight is given the space, support and encouragement to become lived experience. The dream can reveal what is asking for our attention, while EFT helps us work through what may be standing in the way of responding to it.

Together, they offer a beautiful pathway towards greater self-understanding and meaningful change—a pathway I love sharing with others.
