About MindfulWell®
We are Amy and Larrisa, Two passionate individuals who came together to make a change. At MindfulWell®, we are dedicated to addressing the challenges of mental and emotional well-being through a Whole-Person, Trauma-Informed Approach. We believe that healing is not just about managing symptoms it’s about understanding the deep connection between the mind, body, and past experiences. Trauma, stress, and emotional pain don’t just exist in our thoughts; they shape how we feel in our bodies, how we connect with others, and how we navigate the world. That’s why we create a safe, supportive space where women can feel seen, heard, and respected as they heal.
Our services centre around a trauma-informed approach that honours each person’s unique journey. Through counselling, psychotherapy, and mindfulness practices, we offer a compassionate, non-judgemental environment where women can explore their experiences, build resilience, and reconnect with their inner strength. Healing is not only about talking—it’s about listening to the body, regulating the nervous system, and creating safety within ourselves. To support this, we offer mindfulness practices, yin yoga, workshops, and retreats that integrate both mind and body, ensuring a holistic approach to well-being.
At MindfulWell®, we are committed to building a strong, supportive community as a collective where women feel empowered to heal, grow, and thrive. Mental health is about more than managing stress or anxiety; it’s about addressing the deeper emotional patterns that shape our lives and empowering women to heal from within. Through our trauma-informed approach, we help women rediscover the strength, balance, and well-being that already exists within them, creating lasting solutions for mental and emotional resilience. Together, we create a space where women can find connection, support, and healing.
Testimonial ★★★★★
“I can’t recommend MindfulWell enough! Amy’s insights into emotional wellbeing and mental health were so valuable and helped me reflect deeply on my own life. Larissa’s yoga and breath work sessions were incredibly relaxing, and the ice bath and sauna were a unique addition that I absolutely loved. The food was not only nutritious but also absolutely delicious so many flavours and vibrant ingredients. I left feeling rejuvenated in every way.”
Testimonial ★★★★★
“This retreat was one of the best I have been too, I have been to many but in this case this one was different. It had a different holding space for me mentally and physically the workshop was very therapeutic and informative. I felt I was cared for from start to finish and beyond. I was not pushed in a certain way. I felt comfortable and also like a weight had been lifted. This was a full mind body experience! Thank you!”
