Carmen Greentree (Aurie), author of A Dangerous Pursuit of Happiness, has been in pursuit of her highest truth and purpose all her life. From a depressed and anxious young girl, she became a world-class pro surfer, travelling the world and riding the ecstatic waves of fame and fortune. An underlying story of self-development which started in her teens buoyed her along, always pointing towards being her savior. Carmen took a deep dive into spirituality at 21 and headed to India to study with the Dalai Lama. Her quest for enlightenment was brutally derailed when she was abducted, had her passport and money stolen, and was raped, extorted, abused and kept a prisoner on a houseboat in Kashmir for two long months.
Her journey back to healing and wholeness allowed her to find herself and forgive herself with a depth so profound, it set the scene for the rest of her life. Since then, Carmen has been on a journey of unconditional love, creating a space of support and compassion for all who cross her path.
Over 20 years of study and professional training allow Carmen to practise in a multitude of modalities. She brings her depth of life experience and empathy to every session. Being qualified in so many areas allows Carmen to call on the right skill at the right time, intuitively summoning what the client needs in the moment.
Carmen is regarded as one of the utmost professionals in her field and she continues to help people through the darkest moments of their life every day.
