Hi, I'm Jackie Hillegers

Founder of PHEATHERINE

{Pronounced Feather-een}

 This is my Story

I have always been the go-to person that offers a listening ear to people when they reach out for help. Over the years I noticed mental health in our children & teens increasing - with children as young as four, being diagnosed with anxiety. 

I had anxiety growing up and I was always thinking the worst case scenario in a situation. As an adult my anxiety got worse and I was setting off my fight 'n' flight mode, due to my over-thinking!

I wanted to know more about how my body & mind worked, and how I could reduce my anxiety. I educated myself through books, I completed a Teachers Mindfulness Course & achieved a Diploma in Holistic Integrated Creative Arts Therapy & Counselling. 

By incorporating my 30+ years of knowledge as a Professional Photographer, I blended all my creative skills and knowledge together, to create my business called Pheatherine.

My end vision was to help clients to heal through art as a visual means. To teach others how to reduce their BIG feelings by looking for inner signs in their own body. 

I have been booked out on a regular basis now for over 3 years. In order to help more people I have made the choice to go online for a greater reach. My heart is full and I feel so blessed to have found my purpose in life - helping others.
