Does this sound like you?

  • You find yourself hitting a plateau with clients using conventional approaches

  • You've noticed that talking about trauma sometimes reinforces it rather than releasing it

  • Your toolkit feels incomplete when addressing deeply embedded emotional patterns

  • You want to offer consistent results whether working remotely or face-to-face

  • Your practice could benefit from a distinctive, science-based specialisation

  • You're seeking a method that creates tangible neurobiological change, not just coping mechanisms

  • You want to help clients achieve breakthrough moments rather than incremental progress

  • You're intrigued by the intersection of neuroscience and healing but need practical applications

Why Train in Havening with Elle?

My approach to Havening training blends scientific rigour with compassionate guidance. I believe that understanding the neuroscience is just as important as mastering the techniques themselves. In our training, you'll discover not just what to do, but why it works so powerfully.

My teaching style creates a safe, supportive environment where you can absorb both the theory and practical applications at your own pace. With a focus on hands-on practice and personalised feedback, you'll build confidence in applying these revolutionary techniques from day one.

"I walked into Elle's Havening training with no prior knowledge, no research, and honestly, no confidence that it could help me. Yet within the first half hour, that self-doubt began to melt away. By the final day, I not only had a solid grasp of Havening but also the confidence that I could actually become certified and help others."

— Melissa N, Social Worker

Hi, I’m Elle

My journey with Havening began in 2016 when I experienced a profound personal transformation using this powerful technique. After overcoming c-PTSD, I discovered a renewed sense of purpose and dedicated my life to sharing Havening with others.

Becoming a trainer was a natural progression in my mission to empower as many people as possible with these life-changing techniques. I offer training across Australia and online to make Havening accessible to all.

Beyond training, I’m passionate about developing resources like online courses and retreats, and expanding Havening's reach into schools and the corporate sector.
