Emotional Healer & Life Coach
Free Yourself from Anger, Sadness, Fear, Hurt, Guilt and Phobias.
Helping people uncover the root cause of emotional pain and create happier and successful lives.
Many people carry emotional burdens for years without realising how deeply those emotions influence their behaviour, relationships, decisions and happiness.
Whether it's anger, sadness, fear, hurt, guilt, shame or a phobia that continues to affect your life, change is possible.
Through a combination of extensive life experience, professional training and proven therapeutic techniques, I help people understand and release the emotional patterns that have been limiting their happiness and preventing them from becoming the person they truly want to be.
The result is often greater happiness, peace of mind, improved relationships, increased confidence and a renewed sense of freedom.
Your past does not have to define your future.
Let's begin with a conversation.
My Philosophy
Emotions shape behaviour.
Behaviour shapes happiness.
Just think of your mind as a blank CD that is filling up with data all the time. It doesn't decide whether those memories are good or bad — it just stores them, and they trigger your response to future events in much the same way as a push button radio.
Knowing this has helped me understand that success, happiness and fulfilment are often determined less by external circumstances and more by the emotions people carry around with them. I believe that when people gain a new understanding of their experiences, they gain the freedom to create a happier future.
Change the emotional foundation and positive change naturally follows.
How I Can Help
Does Any Of This
Sound Familiar?
If any of this sounds familiar, you are not alone. Many emotional reactions are not caused by what is happening today, but by conclusions we formed about events that occurred years earlier.
You experience anger that seems out of proportion to the situation.
You feel sadness that never fully goes away.
Fear or anxiety affects your confidence and decision-making.
You carry guilt, shame or regret from past experiences.
A phobia is limiting your enjoyment of life.
You act impulsively and later wish you had responded differently.
You struggle to express your feelings to the people you care about.
You doubt your worth and underestimate your abilities.
You feel stuck in patterns that keep repeating.
If any of this sounds familiar, you are not alone. Many emotional reactions are not caused by what is happening today, but by conclusions we formed about events that occurred years earlier.

What Others Say
Results Speak For Themselves
My husband was dying of cancer and wanted to see Bruce Reid because he was bothered by something that happened in his past. Bruce spent an hour with my husband, and afterwards my husband told me he was ready to die. I don't know what they discussed, but I know that my husband eventually died a happy man. Thanks Bruce.
Mrs P.M. — Gardenvale
I had a cockroach fly into my face when I was a kid and it frightened me. I've lived with this phobia for many years and decided to get help to overcome it. I saw Bruce Reid and in one session he helped me to see cockroaches in a very different light. I now see them as a blue swallow flying past me in my boat, and when this happens, I laugh.
Tony C. — Altona
I went to see Bruce Reid after being referred by a friend who'd also seen Bruce. I was in a road rage incident that left me frightened, angry and very anxious. Bruce helped me see that it wasn't my fault, that it was random and just another "event" in my life. Now I look back on it without any negative feelings.
