About our Klinik
Kinyana’s Klinik was created as a space to walk along side, just like our logo represents. The two wavey lines represent you and us, as you navigate we support until you feel you can come full circle.
As Klinicians we offer a place for you to feel seen, listened to and held. We hope to educate you to understand your WHOLE body, mind, emotions and spirit. Our aim is to help you see that you are an integral part of the world around you. The more you function optimally, the more you and your family and the community at large grows with abundance.
Kinyana Klinik was founded by Nuala, as a progression of ‘A Health House’. Kinyana embodies the growth and movement towards connection that comes with age and life experience.

About Nuala
Hi I am Nuala, I am small of stature but large in life. I am older than I remember, I guess I'm a lot of things, complex like most, but I feel all is encompassed under the umbrella of medicine woman. I am a mother, eagerly guided by my intuition. I connect to earth and honour and trust her cycles. I am currently in the season of little hands and big learning.
As a practitioner I aim to offer you space and knowledge to find whole health. I am honoured to walk beside both women, men and children wanting to start, build or honour their families.
I am deep into connecting you to a path of living that feels pure and light for you.
I use many tools, including humour and play, but especially acupuncture, herbs, touch, cupping massage, movement, and breath.
In a typical session, expect to feel cared for and informed. My treatment plans aim to support your body, to heal and strengthen, simultaneously.

Counsellor/Psychotherapist
About Laura
Hey, I’m Laura, I am a Mother, Partner and Ocean/Nature Lover. I believe strongly in connection, community, play and creativity as being essential parts of life for kids (and adults) as they are powerful teachers, healers and bringers of joy.
I am a qualified person-centered Psychotherapist and Counsellor with 8 years experience working therapeutically with Children, Teenagers and Parents/Carers. I meet each person where they are at and am guided by their subjective experience. I have a deep trust in the healing process innate in each of us and honour the wisdom that our body holds. I strongly believe therapy can be preventative just as much as it is healing after or during times of crisis so welcome anyone interested in starting that journey.
With children, often their main forms of communication and processing are through movement and play and so in sessions I mainly draw upon play and expressive therapies in our work together.
