MY HOLISTIC TOOLBOX  in Mind-Body Communication: I taught Face Reading from 2000 until 2006. In 2007 completed my training and became a registered teacher with a Diploma in Teaching Psychosomatic Therapy with Hermann Müller, my father. Hermann founded the Psychosomatic Therapy College on the Gold Coast.  

THIS JOURNEY came about after my husband's tragic and sudden death in a workplace accident; I found myself a widow and a mother of a toddler. 

I moved to the Gold Coast to escape the memories, expand my world, develop a relationship with my new partner and started to work with my dad Hermann Müller, who was developing Psychosomatic Therapy. 

I worked in the office with Marie(Hermann's wife) of Harmony Body & Mind Healing Centre(which was perfect, and I was going through my healing and discovery process) and as an editor of Hermann's books and manuals. 

After expanding into new events and attending as a Face Reader became the Festival Events Manager for festivals representing the Psychosomatic Therapy College around Australia and became a foundation member and President of the International Association of Psychosomatic Therapists-INTAPT Inc. 

"A life lived with conscious awareness is full of choices and self-control. This self-control is ownership of my experiences and the results - Living a psychosomatic rich life finds me loving who I am."

MY ROOTS are deep in the world of Psychosomatics, even before I knew what Psychosomatics was. I had started reading people early on in life to fit in as a child immigrant and entered a new family dynamic.

Reading patterns in body language, postures and energy flow and putting in place contingencies was a survival technique to preserve my identity. That was all I could control as a 7-year-old, how I was seen or not seen.  

In 1993 I was broken of heart, and being; I had lost all the structure that supported the old me. So when my father explained the basics of Psychosomatics, it was a light bulb moment. 

 I started to weave the threads of my past with the education and physical applications; I was hooked into a life based on the principles of Psychosomatics. 

Every person I encountered became an opportunity to develop an internal library of Psychosomatic awareness; it was helped by the vast amount of face readings and body analysis I did through festivals and in the clinic. Over those thirteen years, Face reading became so popular I was reading up to 40 faces each day for 2-3 days; it built my internal reference library, which now gives me quick speed and accuracy. 

Reading and decoding people was like a drug - a deep need to understand why people do what they do so I could connect with and understand them at a deeper level.
