About Lesley

Step into a space of stillness.

Hi, I’m Lesley, and I believe healing begins with feeling truly seen.

My story

A space for energy-sensitive souls.

I created Sweet Sounds Wellness as a space for energy-sensitive souls to reconnect with their own healing power. With qualifications in Reiki and Sound Healing, I combine gentle, grounded practices with a heart-led approach, especially for those navigating chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, energetic fatigue, or times of transition.

Every session is personalised, trauma-aware, and supportive of where you are right now. No expectations, no judgment. Just a quiet space to land and let go.

You’ll find me in Aldinga Beach and McLaren Vale, on the Fleurieu Peninsula, offering one-on-one Reiki and sound healing sessions, and group sound healing circles by the sea.

How sessions feel

Personal, trauma-aware, and unhurried.

Personalised

No script and no set routine. Each session is tuned to what you need that day, physically, emotionally and energetically.

Trauma-aware

You’re always in charge. Nothing is expected of you, you can share as much or as little as you like, and silence is welcome.

Supportive

Whether you’re new to energy work or well-versed in it, you’ll be met exactly where you are, with no judgment.

My approach to healing

Not just a treatment. A return to self.

Settle: Creating the space

Before we begin any healing, we start by settling in. You’ll be welcomed into a calm, grounding environment, free from judgement, expectations, or overwhelm.

We begin with a gentle check-in to see what’s showing up for you today: physically, emotionally, or energetically. There’s no rush, just presence.

Whether you’re new to this or well-versed in energy work, this first step allows your nervous system to soften and your mind to feel safe. It’s your moment to arrive fully.

Soothe: The session

Once you’re ready, we move into the heart of the session, tailored specifically for your needs that day. This may include:

  • Sound healing with singing bowls to shift energetic blocks
  • Reiki to balance and realign your body’s natural energy flow
  • Gentle guidance, breath awareness, or silence: whatever you need

You’ll simply lie back, relax, and allow your body to receive. It’s not about doing. It’s about being supported, exactly as you are.

This is the part where most clients feel the deepest calm they’ve experienced in a long time.

Reconnect: Integration & reflection

After the session, we take a few quiet moments to ground and gently reflect. You’ll have the option to share what came up, or simply take space to let the work settle in.

Integration is just as sacred as the session itself. It’s where the insights land, the shifts unfold, and your healing continues beyond the room.

I may offer gentle guidance, practices to take home, or simply a warm send-off, whatever feels right. You leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and reconnected with your own inner wisdom.

At Sweet Sounds Wellness, every session is part of a meaningful journey inward. There’s no pressure to be or feel a certain way here. Just a gentle invitation to come home to yourself.

In their words

“A homecoming.”

I walked in feeling tense, overwhelmed, and disconnected from myself. Lesley held the space with such grace. I left feeling lighter, softer, and more like “me” than I had in months. It was more than healing… it was a homecoming.
