About Mary-Rose Dias
Kia ora ♡ I’m Mary-Rose and I am a Psychology Practitioner, Wellness Coach, Yoga Therapist and Meditation Teacher based in Wellington, New Zealand and offering services locally and online to a global audience. I have an MSc in Applied Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology, an 800 hour + Certificate IV in yoga teaching and advanced meditation qualifications including being certified as an iRest® Yoga Nidra Meditation Teacher.
I am hugely passionate about well-being and I have over ten years experience in this field. It is my heart-felt calling to support others to access health, healing and happiness. I currently live in my birth-place of New Zealand, however, my passion and dedication to wellness has taken me all over the world including Hawaii, Australia, Ireland, Czech Republic and the UK. I have trained with internationally recognised teachers such as John Ogilivie, Dr Tim Lomas, Itai Ivtzan, Dr Richard Miller and Stephanie Lopez. My primary offerings include one-on-one wellness coaching, private yoga and meditation tuition, courses, workshops and retreats.
I would love for us to get to know each other more, and would be delighted to work with you.
