About Chloé.
Kia ora, my name is Chloé.
I grew up in the French countryside to an English mother and a French father, and in 2015 I moved to Aotearoa to build a life with the father of my two boys. A few years later, we lost him to mental health. What followed was grief, dislocation, and the slow process of rebuilding from the ground up — while learning how to keep showing up as a mother.
Growing up between cultures, and later embracing a third, shaped how I relate to myself and to others. It taught me adaptability, imagination, and a deep awareness of how identity is formed through context, stories, and belief systems. These experiences continue to influence how I work with people: not by taking their stories at face value, but by gently questioning the narratives they’ve learned to live inside.
The loss of my partner within the mental health system ignited a deeper inquiry into psychology, the nervous system, and the body’s role in healing. Alongside my studies and training, I undertook my own therapeutic journey and experienced firsthand the difference between intellectual understanding and embodied change. That lived experience continues to shape everything I offer.
My work now sits at the intersection of awareness, somatic practice, movement, and self-inquiry. It is not about fixing or forcing change, but about creating enough safety for honesty to emerge. From that place, patterns can be seen, choices can widen, and behaviour can shift, slowly, sustainably, and with integrity.
I believe the challenges we are facing individually and collectively point to a deeper need to rethink how we understand identity, purpose, and belonging. Personal transformation is not separate from collective change; it is its foundation.
I am a dreamer, a poet, and a devoted mother. But what defines me most is a quiet determination to stay present, to keep choosing awareness over avoidance, and to support others as they find their way back to themselves, not perfectly, but truthfully.
