Supporting those navigating trauma, awakening, and deep inner transformation.
I’m Chrissy Diamond — integrative therapist, energy medicine practitioner, and founder of Holistic Alignment.
My work is for those navigating deep inner change. When trauma, awakening, loss, has brought about the quiet knowing that life can no longer continue in the same way.
A path shaped from the inside
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to what lives beneath the surface. The emotions we carry, the patterns that repeat, and the subtle energies behind our experiences.
I’ve spent over 30 years exploring the healing arts, and more than 20 years in clinical practice.
Today, I offer online Holistic Alignment sessions to clients around the world from my home in France.
Trauma, awakening, and the threshold between
In early adulthood, I experienced a traumatic, life-threatening injury and a near-death experience.
During that time, I left my physical body and encountered a presence. During this experience, one thing very clear: my life was not complete.
That threshold – between life and death, form and formlessness – changed the course of everything.
It deepened my understanding of:
• expanded states of consciousness
• the relationship between trauma and awakening
• what it means to return to the body after rupture
This is not something I relate to conceptually.
It lives in my body, and shapes how I sit with you.
Living through trauma and remembering myself
Alongside this, I’ve also lived through sexual trauma and its aftermath, including PTSD.
For a time, my system did exactly what it needed to survive:
numbing, bracing, over-functioning, adapting, holding it all together.
Those responses were intelligent – and necessary.
But over time, they also obscured who I truly was.
My healing has been a process of:
• meeting trauma not just mentally, but through the body and nervous system
• working with protective patterns, rather than against them
• allowing layers of identity to fall away
• rediscovering what remains underneath
This process has been both dismantling and deeply liberating.
Because I’ve walked this path, I understand how disorienting it can be when:
• you no longer recognise yourself
• old ways of coping no longer work
• something deeper is calling, but isn’t yet clear
Through decades of healing exploration, I have developed the ability to sense energy, track patterns, and tune into the deeper intelligence moving through a person’s system.
In sessions, I listen not just to your words, but to your body, your field, your emotional tone, and your symbolic language.
I honour your coping strategies as intelligent – and through our work together, I will support you to gently loosen what no longer serves you.
How I work
My approach is grounded, intuitive, and responsive to what is unfolding in you.
I draw on a range of therapeutic, somatic, and energy-based practices, including:
• deep listening and talk-based exploration
• trauma-informed approaches such as EFT and PSYCH-K
• somatic awareness and nervous system regulation
• subtle-body, energy work and breath-work
• practices that support intuition and inner guidance
These are not applied in a prescriptive way.
They are woven into each session as needed – always in service of your integration, clarity, and alignment.
A grounded and attuned space
I don’t see you as a problem to be fixed.
I offer a space where all aspects of you – body, mind, emotions, and soul – are welcome.
My intention is that you leave sessions with:
• greater clarity and understanding
• a deeper connection to your own inner guidance
• a stronger sense of who you are beneath conditioning and experience
