Life Coaching Services: Expert Support for Personal Transformation

Meet Roula

My journey to becoming the therapist I am today has not only come from what I have studied, but from what I have lived.

I was born in Lusaka, Zambia, to Greek immigrant parents, completed my schooling in Zambia and Johannesburg, and later graduated from the University of Natal in Durban with a Bachelor of Social Science, majoring in Psychology and Sociology.

After marrying in 1985, my husband and I returned to Zambia, where we built several successful businesses and raised our five children. My spiritual journey began after the birth of my first child, when my second IVF pregnancy brought the extraordinary news that I was expecting quadruplets. It changed my life forever and began a much deeper search for meaning, understanding and purpose.

When our family moved to Australia in 2012, another chapter began. I returned to study, and obtain certification in Life Coaching, Reiki, Hypnotherapy, Time Line Therapy®️, NLP and Neuroenergetic Kinesiology. What I didn't realise at the time was how much this journey of learning would also change and heal me.

In the years that followed, life brought some of my greatest challenges — the loss of my parents and my own experience with bowel cancer and recovery in 2021–2022, and more recently the loss on my brother. During those difficult times, so much of what I had learned became part of how I navigated my own healing, grief, resilience and understanding of life.

Looking back, I can see how all these experiences have shaped the person and therapist I am today. They have taught me that we never truly know what another person may be carrying beneath the surface. They have given me a deeper sense of compassion, empathy and understanding, and the ability to listen without judgement.

Today, when a client comes to see me, I don't simply see a symptom, behaviour or problem that needs to be addressed. I see the whole person and the story behind them.

My work is about creating a safe and caring space where people feel heard and supported, while helping them gain a deeper understanding of themselves and what may be holding them back.

Through my own journey of motherhood, business, spirituality, loss, illness, healing and personal transformation, I finally found what I believe is my purpose — helping others on their own journey towards healing, wellbeing and positive change.

That is what Change Your Life Now means to me.
