Master Shaman

Welcome and thank you for visiting

Hello, I’m Lizzie the owner and operator of Essenze Therapies. I am passionate about health and using natural plant products. I have just returned to New Zealand after living in the UK for the past 10 years, working in western medicine settings as a senior occupational therapist, running retreats, plant medicine workshops, and one to one healing sessions with people from all walks of life.

My career in health spans more than 22 years, and covers knowledge of rehabilitation, anxiety management, mindfulness, basic nutrition, aromatherapy, flower essence consultations, shamanic and relaxation treatment.

Your initial consultation is FREE – we will establish a therapy plan based on your needs. Therapy includes a variety of techniques, and you will occasionally have activities to complete, following our sessions.

I encourage you to journal while journeying with the essences. I offer a free check-in/review while you are taking your blends, which can be done via phone/text/email or in person.

I would be honoured to work with you!

Essenze Therapies is for:

  • Those who are in emotional pain – through grief, trauma, relationship breakdown, ‘feeling stuck in life’, wanting a new direction, or simply wanting to connect to your destined pathway.
  • Those who wish to experience relaxation or learn about the techniques I use in my workshop settings, small classes or on a 1:1 basis.
  • Those who realise there is more than the 3D dimension we generally operate in on a day to day basis, and wanting to understand their life from a deeper perspective.
  • My therapies and products are safe for children – older adults and all ages in between, to use.
  • Sometimes I may need to refer you on to a more appropriate service should the need arise.

Workshop attendance is a chance to deep dive into your world, gain insight and knowledge and experience guided meditation, creative work and shamanic practices.

I was grateful for the support Lizzie gave me at this time of my life

This below describes my time with Lizzie, being with me daily for a period of time when I experienced a complete “dark night of the soul” this unravelled over a few days – a necessary process which gave me incredible insights about my life, the choices I had made and I was grateful for the

Can’t thank her enough for making me feel relaxed, and recharged at the same time

I have the most wonderful experience with Lizzie with her. The Aromatouch is heavenly – they take you to a different place. The after-care is spot on – taking a blend for the following days helps with re-settling any issues that arose in the treatment. Can’t thank her enough for making me feel relaxed, and

Lizzie is a marvellous positive therapist

Lizzie is a marvellous positive therapist – working alongside her as a nurse in her OT capacity I was soon introduced to her First Light range of essences. I have used these wonderful essences many times. The ferns blend especially allowed me to release deep grief related to my mum.

As a colleague of Lizzie’s, I have watched her grow and develop her lovely Tropic business into something special.
